I have two Crown 602 Amps. Each connected in bridge mono. Output is 1200W. I have two Peavey PS2 FOH speakers rated at 500-1000 max 2000w. I want to reduce the stress on the FOH speakers. What will i loose in DB with 775W vs 1200W into 8 ohms.???? I'm not sure how to calulate this. Will...

Yes, I have a 32b eq w/ limiters.

I have a pair of Peavey SP2's and i have powered them with two crown xls602 amps. bridged mono (1200) watts at 8 ohms each. The peaveys are rated at 1000 watt w/2000 watt peak. Am I just cooking the coils in these speakers with that much power?I had to replace one blackwidow basket which...

Thanks for that. That is exactly what I thought. Some one before me had installed this system. We do have an excellent FOH system complete with subs and four 12" floor monitors (JBL112), sounds great. The ceiling speakers are for an assembly hall and only for presentatons and background...

My church has six previously installed 70v ceiling speakers wired for 5 watts. I have a crownXLS402 amp available but i doubt that it will work with the speakers. Am I right? I think I understand that for reasonably good fidelity a 35 or 40 watt 70v paging amp is what I need. Do I just...

I want to run my signal cables from the mixer to the amplifiers in the ceiling. The distance is about 150'. I do have some Belden FE5301 cable available. Does anyone know whether or not this type of shielded cable will provide what I am looking for? I use it for instrumentation.

The projectors does not have coax connectors on it. They are EPSON S6's The cables I am using now are mulitconductor D-sub connectors on each end.

I am pretty sure it is a vga cable ( it looks similar to an RS232 conn ) and a single cable runs from my computer via a 75' cable to a splitter and then leaves on two 100' cables. One to each of two projectors. The same type of cable. The signal consists of power point presentations and DVD...

I am installing a new multi media / sound booth at my church. we have two projectors at the front of the church and the boothis at the back about 150' away. I now have multi conductor cable through a splitter run to each projector. Can I use coax instead?

I wonder where do I shop for some bulk cable? I tried my electrical supply house, (I am an electrical contractor) but they don't sell that stuff much and the best they can do is .22'. Is that in line? I may just buy a 150' snake.

Oh Yeah, yes I plan on using the XLR signal inputs on the amps.

Thanks guys, I am locating a spool of Belden 8451 as i write. I thought that I might be able to use the spool of Cat5E that I already have but I think for the interest of the long term I will buy some mic cable. I just want to put my power amps in FOH close to the speakers and run some line...

I am building a mulitmedia loft at my church. I have a 16x4 snake to install but i don't want to use the sends for the amp feeds. Since I am installing permanently I want to use four signals two for each of two amps at the chancel (stage). One amp is for the two mains and one for the four...

I have one. I use it for a few live events per year and every friday and saturday night. I agree it is short on features and certainly not the finest quality. However you are not paying a high price for a mixer that will get the job done. (Assuming the job is not very demanding) I do...

I have two Peavey SP2's. Now I am powering each one with a Crown 602 in bridged mono. Is this too much amp power? I am interested in a QSC PXL 3602 amplifier. Is that a good choice? Is anyone using a setup siimilar to these and if so what are your thoughts?
