[QUOTE="Max Warasila, post: 206039, member: 3845"] I would offer that getting into louder musical territory could warrant LCR as a valid system configuration here. Ignoring physics and just talking sound design for a moment, I've found that having a center cluster for vocals and L/R for your orchestra very much helps in terms of intelligibility and clarity, and more so in smaller spaces than I expected when I first tried it. I've done a gig the past two months of August at First Stage in Tysons Corner, VA where this worked pretty well. As far as the exact choice to use for these, your current mains could be used for the vocal cluster if they play well next to each other at all. I would go with 12" tops and maybe an 18" or two for subs if you're really excited. You really don't need more displacement than that. I assume that the audience has no rake to it - that would change things slightly IMO, but not much. [/QUOTE]
