Large Town Hall Installation

Afternoon Everyone.

I'm hoping you will be able to give me some advice.

We have a film club in our village and have won a lottery grant which we will be putting towards a some equipment for having showings in our local town hall.

We have a large projector screen already in place along with a projector. I am hoping for some help with regard to a sound system to suit.

- The kit will be setup & taken down each time its used as its a shared hall.
- The hall is large and there will be quite a few people in attendance so multiple rows of seating. approx 100 ppl.
- The sound required must be of a good level but we are on a budget.

Room Size: 3.4m/11ft Ceiling

8.4m \ 27ft across

The screen is located at the front of the hall with the projector and seating rows starting approx 5m\16ft back.

I have no real idea of what would be adequate and what wouldn't and would appreciate any advice on the sound system.

Regards,

Daniel.

Re: Large Town Hall Installation

i would get an acoustic consultant/audio engineer involved in this project, someone who can come along and see what you are doing and advise accordingly, which end of the country are you at?
