[QUOTE="Art Welter, post: 100410, member: 52"] Re: Low ceiling, long room - delays or louder PA? With the coverage area only 5m wide by 12m deep (after deducting the stage depth) the SH-25 coverage pattern (25 x25) would be better than the 90 x 70 RCF ART310A for your room. After installing some Maltese high frequency horns to a "Shotgun Shack" club similar in dimensions to yours (though a bit deeper), the sound man was pleased, for the first time he could hear the highs clearly at the mix location in the back of the hall. The 90 x 40 HF horns he had previously were putting too much of their energy on the reflective brick side walls and plaster ceiling, the direct to reflected ratio made it sound like there was no (useful) high end. At the time I had been calling the Maltese a 30 x 30, after better measuring later found they are only about 15 x 15 above 1000 Hz, even tighter than the SH-25, which looks surprisingly similar.
