[QUOTE="Adam Kane, post: 2102, member: 529"] Working in a funeral home...tearing out all of the old gear (except speakers) and replacing with newer and easier to use gear. The two pictures attached are from the closet where the rack is located... 13-gang box?? [ATTACH=CONFIG]156022.vB5-legacyid=1805[/ATTACH] Nope. Just a big slot cut into the drywall, notching at least 80% out of two studs (non load-bearing wall) and a bunch of little hollow wall anchors. Did I mention lots of wire nuts? They home-ran every single speaker...even those all in the same zone/room. So...if one room had 8 speakers, there were 8 wires run into this mess and all connected to the control. [ATTACH=CONFIG]156023.vB5-legacyid=1806[/ATTACH] All of the above had been eliminated and replaced with a more appropriate zone controller. The entire job is like this...they paid a fairly large, well-known company (at least around here) lots of money for this system four years ago. What a waste... [/QUOTE]
