I need some advice on how to deploy loudspeakers to cover a nearly square (43' L x 40' W) room that will be used as a dance/fitness group training room. Not a dance club, but similar SPLs for music playback. Will also need to have live vocals go louder than the music. I have requested that some acoustic treatment be installed above the main area in the form of hanging cloud panels.
We currently have existing stock of 4 x Community Veris 1564 speakers that we would like to hang from the concrete slab above (ceiling will be exposed) and positioned in the corners, pointed diagonally down into the room. I need help figuring out what to do about adding subs. While there may be better mid-high speakers for this application, it's a shoestring budget project and I'm being instructed to re-use components we already have.
Keeping the floor clear is definitely a priority for both aesthetic and functional reasons. Without using EASE to analyze, how badly would things go if the subs were hung over the middle of the room, 13' from the walls so they're roughly equidistant from each other and from the walls?
I understand that when flying subs there's a tradeoff of punchiness for even coverage. I am considering JBL VRX915s subs since they fly easily.
Any and all advice appreciated.
