Hello Shoottv. I'm in Tulsa, head audio at the Tulsa PAC. I'm guessing you are at either BA, Jenks, Union or Owasso? We have a full staff here and if you need any advice on what the pros are doing or how to do it I would be happy to get you in touch with our lighting and carpentry department...

When we replaced our old HME 800 wireless coms system a couple of years ago, we tested both the Clearcom Tempest and CellCom system, as well as the Riedel Acrobat series. Although the Riedel system was the best in pretty much every regard, we went with the CellCom 1.92GHz DECT band system...

How good are you at soldering coax cable? For a 100 foot run, I would get LMR400 by Times Microwave Systems. Past 100 feet I would use LMR600. If it's permanently installed the standard cable is best, if it's going to be moved around alot, get the UltraFlex variety. LMR 400, about $1 per foot...

Greetings, In my building I have flown subs in two of our theatres. One is an ~430 seat proscenium theatre, the other a ~200 seat black box theatre. In the 430 seat theatre, I have a pair of Meyer M1D line arrays with a cardioid sub array made of 3 Meyer M1D Subs flown at center. By...
