[QUOTE="Mike Diack, post: 429, member: 144"] I have an install in possibly the worst situation ever imagined. What I have is a timber deck, 150x50mm planks 5mm gaps, and client wants sound coming up through said deck in 8 different places (4 differing stereo pairs). There is no roof over the deck and high tide ocean 1.2 metres under the deck. Rain above, sea below and sod all room for the sound to come out. I'm fighting for grilles but everyone is concerned about stilleto heels. I'm thinking of smallish rain resistant speakers (like JBL C28s or Proel 207s) pointed 45 degrees downwards off the underside of the deck with reflector plates to bounce the sound upwards but allow the rain to drain away. What it's going to sound like after squeezing through a 5mm gap is anybodys guess. They also want a grunty subwoofer (I'm thinking of something like half a labsub, where the driver is as far away from the mouth as possible). Is this an impossible quest ?. Any better ideas ?.(It has to survive for years) [IMG]http://www.soundforums.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=404&d=0[/IMG] M [/QUOTE]
