another Crown question

[Scott Brochu]

I want to run 4 Dr200 (BetaA's)on one channel and 4 T-39's on another (Deltalfa's)
Is it possible with a Crown xti1000?

I do have ep2500 and a Mackie1400i and am presently using them to fire the rig up.
Right now I run 4 Wedge 10's out of the mackie (2 wedges per channel) and run 2 T-39's out of one channel of the ep2500 and the other channel does the 2 Behringer 15" tops.

The Behringer 2500 can't keep up. By the end of the night the response/recovery time on the amp is spent.

You can, but I would not advise it. Doing so puts the amp at it's extreme limits of use. I try to never do this, except in an extreme emergency. Find another amp, preferably to run the subs, so you can add a bit of power, to make up for the higher nominal impedance.

You can but you will run out of gas. "Buy once cry once."

You can get an XTI 2000 for $404 on ebay.

$449 + 8% bing cashback using “buy It now via paypal” and 2% ebay bucks cashback=10%. $404

If it were me i'd buy an XTI 4000, but that's me.

Ill run all 6 titans out of the xti Maybe a 2000 will go better as the nominal imp of 3 cabs per side will be just over 3 ohms i think it as the titans need a better xover setup than the tops
then run the drs from the mackie (a simple eq or xover will separate them from the subs)
at last ill run 2 WH and the behringer top from each ch of the ep 2500 (series the WHs then conect the top on parallel for a 1/2 watt ratio) that way the behringer will go cooler and do a better job

[Scott Brochu]

Sorry, didn't say I will be putting the Behringer tops to rest when the Dr's are done.
I do have a dcx2496 for the x over. Do you think the crown should be used for the 4 tops only or the 4 subs only?

Usually I put the more powerful/robust amp on the subs, however If the tops sound "sweeter" on one amp versus another...

if you have a dcx and want to convert your system to a BFM only set up then you can set up as one ch to subs the other to tops the delta 12lfs handle 35v right? watch out on that ..... ......... even that if you can set up a diffrent amp for subs and tops this will be better about the behinger i noticed on mine that they cant handle diffrent loads on each ch very well... my 2500 is a beast at 8 ohms but sound distorted if i try to push it too hard at lower loads it may be good for the WHs but be careful on overpowering
