Which plate amp(s)?
I bought the Table Tuba plans and I'm going to build a pair. Right now the plan is to use the Dayton DCS 205-4. I'm looking for advice on a plate amp or amps to run them. They will be used inside our large basement and outside during the summer when we show movies to the kid's friends. Inside I can ...

Re: Marching Band Sound Reinforcement
Sorry I haven't been back to this post but life has gotten hectic. Thanks for all if the info so far. Yes, power is an issue but I'm not worried about that. We have a generator available and use that with our current setup. We have had too many issues with the power supplied by the venue. Usually ju...

Re: Marching Band Sound Reinforcement
I didn't get that from your post but that probably says more about me than about you. I appreciate your advice. Any advice on amps. I'm not looking for bells and whistles. In fact the fewer buttons switches and knobs the better. This whole system will be left in the hands of high school kids to use ...

Re: Marching Band Sound Reinforcement
To cut to the chase I need to run a quick cost analysis. The band boosters will be paying for this if I get the green light and to do that I need a ball park figure. I've been trying to read previous threads to learn what I don't know I don't know and I have a long way to go to truly figure this out...

Re: Marching Band Sound Reinforcement
Grant, thanks for the welcome and the advice. So I get now why not to put subs on opposite 40 yardlines. I might have eventually figured that out from the trolling I've been doing but probably not. I had already seen that page but it all hasn't clicked yet. So now that I get this idea what is the be...

Re: Marching Band Sound Reinforcement
Kekani I agree most groups aren't doing it right. Everything should blend, there should be a balance. Thanks for your reply.

Marching Band Sound Reinforcement
If you haven't seen a marching band in a few years, you are in for a surprise. It is not uncommon to see the bands hauling $15-$20K setups around that are rolled onto a football field and used to provide sound for spoken narration, instrumental solos (yes even flute), small combos of instruments, an...
