[QUOTE="Simon Coffin, post: 1592, member: 388"] Hey Folks, After doing a significant system upgrade in the local High School's multipurpose room, they are now asking me to submit a proposal for a new PA system in the Gymnasium. The inputs, mixer and processing are already sorted out, but I'm still unsure of the speakers. The gym is not particularly large, roughly square, two Basketball courts side by side with 10 feet on each side and bleachers along one wall. Seating capacity is 400 or so. The general idea is to have four speakers evenly spaced covering the bleachers, mounted from the roof steel with beam clamps [URL]http://adapttechgroup.com/products/allenproductpages/bc3-8.html[/URL] , U Brackets and safety cables. There would be two more speakers in the center to cover the gym floor, although I may wall mount them on the far side of the gym. This is a short throw situation, about 40 feet from speaker to bleacher, and a bit more for the center pair, so there isn't a need for horn loaded long throw boxes, but a tighter horn pattern, no more than 80x50, would be needed. Based on mounting options, cost and shipping weight (must be under 70lbs), the Yorkville NX600 with NX600U U Bracket seems like a fair choice, but I'd be interested to hear what other folks have used and found to work well. Since they will use the system for music playback during games and other events, reasonable low frequency response is needed. Ciao Simon Coffin Median Engineering llc [/QUOTE]
