This is my first post so....Hi
I was an audiophile 20 years ago, before 5 kids. I got a bit distracted. However, I'm on the board of a local community theater and one of the few who know anything about audio, not that I'm an expert.
The building we are using for our theater is built like an old movie theater, shotgun style. During kids productions especially, it's almost impossible to make out the dialog in the rear rows 60' back.
We have some hanging mics over the stage running through a decent board. We have a couple of PA speakers near the 20' ceiling in the front above the stage, driven by an old Ross Systems Amp. I bought an Adcom GFA 2535 to run four satellite speakers (just cheapies) I've mounted on the walls 1/2 and 3/4 of the way back from the stage in hopes of merely reinforcing the dialog.
I see no point in running sterio since it's practically inpossible to operate the faders properly to keep left and right seperate. The Adcom has amp A & B with both L&R each. How would one wire these? Will brigded mono (from a single input) generate identical signals on all four channels?
I'm open to suggestions.
