skynoverya550 Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 Ok so i have a large commercial building that i keep all my offroad racing team/toys at... its a 6000 sq ft building, thats basically a huge square. i have a little lounge area that i was going to put some couches/tv/dvd player ect. we also like to rock out while were working on the cars. i have a decent denon recieiver AVR-686 that i have and was going to use, i want to know what a good speaker choice would be. basically i was going to put a speaker in each corner of the building. being that it has concrete walls at the ceiling is about 18' tall i figured it could get real loud real easy/cheap. any suggestions on some speakers that would fit my needs??? thanks!!

AG need to be more specificic, are you going to build Towers, and do you want 12's 15's or 18's? What about mids and highs? Brands would be DC, FI, RE, AA, I mean pretty much anything on this forum is a good choice, plus you'll need amps, to power the subs. Quote Fear The Quack!

mrafrica Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 i wouldnt use car audio stuff for this aplication. go with DJ or concert speakers. they are really the same IMO. Quote And far as the best connection ever....... get a huge fucking battery, cut the top off, drop an alt in there and then pour all that into your big amplifier. or just smelt them all together.

MickyMcD Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 What would suit you would be powered speakers. Easy to lift plastic bins that can be placed in position, a signal lead and a power lead run to them and that is all. If you can afford them, my first reccommendation are the RCF TT22A's. They are tough on the wallet, so if that is a concern, try the RCF 300A or the JBL EON or the TAPCO T-15A. The TT22A will be the absolute best performing powered loudspeaker for you, however the latter three will perform quite well in this situation.

qu1cks1lver56 Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 (edited) powered speakers are gonna have an XLR input and probably a balanced 1/4" input. so you'll have to turn an RCA from the preouts on the receiver into 1/4" or XLR. easiest way would be from RCA to 1/4", easy to do/make/find. edit: also mackie has some decent powered speakers for real decent money, i think they come in 12's maybe 15's, i used some for a PA rig one time in a small venue (just 2 of them) and they villed the room really well.
