Hey!
It's a PA system, not for playback, live sound, installed. Plan to
hook up a pair of JBL 728 subs with it.
Thanks!

Hello... It's been a while. So to restate. I plan on setting up the
following.
installed, Indoor use, Live music, will be called upon to play very
loud on occasion.
4 x JBL VRX 932 Tops, Left-Right flown array. (2 tops a side, wired in
parallel)
I have used the 932 tops both bi-amped and passive. If your really
pushing them, Bi-amped is the way to go. I have used both a 260 and
a drive rack PA with them with acceptable results.

There is also a three position switch switch if you use them passive to
make them brighter. Make sure the switch on the back is properly set to
passive or active.
Post by Sidhu2 x JBL SRX 728 Subs, Ground Stacked
Rigging assembley x 2
Why are you not using the VRX subs with them?. the 900's will rig
directly to the tops if you fly them.
Or what we do at the Holland in the big room is use two of the 900 subs
with a mount pole on the top sub and have two VRX on the top triamped.
No rigging required. For what it is its a potent little system.
Post by Sidhu5 x JBL SRX 712M
4 x Crown Audio I-T6000 (for the VRX932 tops)
2 x Crown Audio I-T8000 (for the SRX 728 subs)
1 x dbx Driverack 260 (or the Behringer ULTRA-CURVE PRO DSP8024 since
the I-tech amps have built in crossovers)
We need to rig the tops from the ceiling to save ground space, and
have a longer throw. Ceiling height is approx. 12ft.
The fly bar is at least $500 each for them. If your flying the tops
only, you can buy metric (M10 ?) hardened shoulder eye bolts and screw
them in the top fly points and fly them. You might need to pull them
back with tie line if you need a downward tilt. They hang fairly neutral
if you do it this way.
If your creative, you can design your own bumper. I am looking into
that issue now.... ;)

Hey Bob.. thanks for taking the time. I agree, it is a very potent
system for it's size, and i think it sounds good too. Thats why im
pushing for it.
Their are two reasons why im not opting for the VRX subs. One is that
I do not have the ceiling height to fly the subs along with the VRX
tops, unless i fly them next to each other, as oppsed to within the
same stack of sub/tops. Two, budget constraints. And the SRX subs,
Which i use with the VRX tops all the time, sound pretty decent too.
for our regular club gigs we tripod mount two VRX speakers each side,
but since this is an installation, we would like to see them flown.
It's one the main that ive been selling the VRX to my client.
.
There is a small mistake in my previous posting where i mentioned
specs. I will use one I-Tech8000 for the Tops (Stereo @ 4ohms), and
one I-Tech8000 for the bins (again in stereo). This model gives 4000W
stereo at 4ohms. I hope to be covered. The JBL VRX tops are specd. at
800W continuous. But amplification is my main worry point right now. I
find the I-Techs to a be a bit of an overkill. I plan to run the
system passive, but i would really appreciate it if someone could
suggest some poweramp models that work well with this setup, both
passive and Bi-amped.
The 5 JBL SRX721M will be used as wedges, amplification suggestions
for these too ?>??? I'll e looking at QSC.
As for speakers, I think the EAW KF series (650) would get really over
the top for this venue. And our idea is to keep the system as slick as
possible, while the LA 215's etc are very good speakers, we really
want to fly somethin small. And everyone is usually quite happy with
the VRX series, except for im yet to find an amp for them... hehe..
ill also look into the Beringer products for stage wedge amplification
and crossover solutions. Ive heard good things about their new system
controller, but again, if im investing in the I-Tech from Crown, i
dont hink ill need a system controller. Thats why id just like a good
RTA/FBD/EQ solutionj such as the 8024 .
Cheers!
