I might have to watch out on the
power handling, if I only have 30w to work with -- or find a larger version of the same amp on eBay.
According to
TOA:
- Three Models: A-903MK2 (30 W), A-906MK2 (60 W), A-912MK2 (120 W)
If
@Chris15 's hunch is correct, that would make my amp an A-903MK2.
This is the
speaker layout that exists:
• SL
Wing (single in-wall
speaker)
• SR
Wing (single in-wall
speaker)
• SL Corridor (Atlas ceiling-mount
speaker)
• Scene Shop (single in-wall
speaker)
This is my plan for additions:
•
Greenroom (
Bogen S810-T725 4-watt ceiling
speaker)
• Dressing Room 1 (Bogen S810-T725 4-watt ceiling
speaker)
• Downstairs Restroom/Shower (
Rauland ACC1204A 5-watt wall-mount)
• Dressing Room 2 (Bogen S810-T725 4-watt ceiling
speaker)
• Men's Restroom (Rauland ACC1204A 5-watt wall-mount)
• Women's Restroom (Rauland ACC1204A 5-watt wall-mount)
• Dressing Room 3 (Bogen S810-T725 4-watt ceiling
speaker)
• Dressing Room Corridor (Bogen S810-T725 4-watt ceiling
speaker)
• Stairwell (Bogen S810-T725 4-watt ceiling
speaker)
Most likely, the restroom speakers will be tapped at less than 1-watt each. Not sure about the ceiling speakers, but probably closer to 2w each. I was going to opt-out of wall attenuators for the time being, as it's not in the
current budget or timeframe. Each dressing room is about the same size, so proportional volume control shouldn't be
too much of an issue unless one group is yakkin' more than the others. The
greenroom does have a water fountain, mini-fridge, and microwave generating
white noise, plus a door to outside, so I may need to tap higher to compensate for that.
I'll go through and pull the grills off the existing speakers to see what kind of load we already have on the amp. I could have sworn that Atlas was tapped at 8w, but I could be mistaken. Each of the existing speakers have remote attenuators, so I would imagine they are tapped to their highest potential at the
transformer. If those other three speakers are tapped at 8w as well, this amp was overloaded during install, which obviously doesn't leave any wiggle-room for expansion. Of course, the main volume knob stays at about 12:00 so there is that...
