Pro speakers at home

[Ryan Gallagher]

will three of those even fit behind a 100" screen? You might need a bigger room (or screen). ;-)

I suppose the subs are less critical, but even those MF horns are 30" wide. Did you mean a 100" width screen?

with a 15ft wall why are you you only aiming to cover so little of it with screen? Are there doors to avoid?

Hi,
I got a deal on some QSC Cinema screen speakers. SC-424. Left, Center and Right.
I’m part a hot Rod car club in a small warehouse and me and the boys are thinking of building a make shift theater using these. The room is 15ft x 20ft.15ft is the screen side. We will probably get the QSC side and rear surrounds also. We already have a consumer set up but no projector. Just a 65” TV, a Marantz AV-8801, some QSC and crown amps and Atlantic Technology speakers.

Keep in mind, we are trying to keep the budget low as we can. so when I read on how the system works, I saw it’s very complex needing at least a triamp set up and the DPM-300. And quite a few DCA amplifiers. This adds up fast. I’m trying to figure out if there is a way to run the speakers passively and use an our consumer Marantz AV8801 to do all the decoding/conversion and output by xlr to separate QSC amps which will power the speakers. And use the built in room calibration on the Marantz. I have a ISA450, ISA750 and possibly can get a deal on a CXD4.5Q

for the screen looking at a 100” perforated.
Not sure which projector yet.
And we will probably build a baffle with access to an equipment room behind it.

as for the set up, I know it won’t be optimized as if we had the whole QSC pro set up, but just trying to find a way to get this going for not too much money.

is this possible ?

thx
