[QUOTE="Simon Eves, post: 113263, member: 4463"] Re: Speaker arrangement for small theatre? To make a three-way centre cluster? Yeah, makes sense. That model is no longer made, but maybe I can find a used one. That would certainly give more coverage without holes. The horizontal spread on the 2a is supposed to be 90 degrees, but I'm guessing the -6dB point is narrower than that. As for the bass aspect, I was intending the centre to be mostly vocals, with maybe the band panned not quite hard left and right (LCR panning on an X32). The side speakers (probably JBL EON 515, Behringer B215 or equivalent) would be mostly the band, with some vocals to balance for the front side seats. Do you really think we'll need more bass in the house? I don't think I'm going to be able to get the show as loud as I would like anyway, due to feedback limitations with the lavaliers on the actors (the director doesn't want booms, and tape-to-cheek really doesn't sound as good as hairline). I don't have the money for anything else. Just hanging the centre cluster is going to be a feat unto itself, especially if it's now 90lbs plus hardware instead of 60... Good input, though. Thank you! Thank you for that too! :) [/QUOTE]
