Re: First gig using BFM speakers -- THEY KICK ASS!!

+1 on the light identification.....LED's sure are nice these days!! You're also correct about being less than two feet off the floor since it's support consisted of cinder blocks on end . I would bet the floor of the stage acted like the "bottom V plate". I would have had cancellation prob...

Seriously! 500 kids in a high school gymnasium VERSUS 4 x T39 (20 inch loaded with 3012's high passed at 40 Hz 24dB LR and driven at max 200W) and 2 x OT212 with the subs and tops...

Re: DriveRack PA settings for T39s and OT212's

You are so right about the acoustics of gyms!!! One redeeming fact in this case is a false "ceiling" of draperies and crepe paper the decorating committee is going to hang about 10-15 feet above the floor. It's a start at least..... Do you think two OT212's can hang with the four T39's?? :...

Re: DriveRack PA settings for T39s and OT212's

Thanks Guys, I will be running two Crown XLS802D amps (one on the subs and one on the tops). Per Crown they run 800W/channel at 4 Ohm with both channels driven. If you think two OT212's will keep up with four T39's that would fix a problem I have......the OT's are 4 Ohm each and the 802 isn't rated ...

It's a high school prom with about 500 kids in the high school gymnasium. I will be running the subs on one amp out the DRPA low side and the tops on another out of...
