habinger808 Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Let's assume that a Bar lounge was being built, what Klipsch speaker setup would be "ideal" for patrons to listen to a wide variety of music. mostly from a streamer and vinyl. Assumption being the room itself has a relatively rectangular shape and about 40' x 60' dimensions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Lots of questions to be asked here. Do you want to purchase new or used? Do you want professional installation, or do it yourself? Will there be any live performances? Will there be dancing? Lower or higher volume? Lots of things to consider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 The best I heard was at Fox And The Hound in North Little Rock. They had a quad of Heresy's in a custom enclsoure hanging over the bar. Then lots of smaller klipsch all around. I'm sure with Roy's skew horn it would be easier to do now adays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin S Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 How about contacting the folks in the Klipsch Professional Department? They are known to have a Bonehead who probably can help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr clean Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 I would think six heresy's hung up high on shelves so they don't get the cones pushed in. 3 on each side along the longest walls. 2 on each end and 2 in the middle. Ran in mono so you would hear everything setting by one speaker. Won't be turned up that loud I would not think. But im just spit balling.

Peter P. Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 2 hours ago, mr clean said: I would think six heresy's hung up high on shelves ... But im just spit balling. The catch is, the speakers cannot face each other. That will cause audio cancellation. The speakers will need to be staggered such that no speaker directly faces another, and there will need to be a certain horizontal separation to ensure it. Bogen, the PA system company, has an excellent System Design Guide which explains a lot about how to set up a system. See page 71. Yeah; Heresy's would be cool looking but you'll be positioning them where they won't produce satisfying bass (much like Chipotle restaurants), and you'll probably not be playing them anywhere near where the Heresy's will shine. And all those speakers will be expensive. Honestly, I'd just choose some Klipsch bookshelf speakers, mounted out of reach of drinking or curious patrons, or if you have a dropped ceiling, use some Klipsch in-ceiling speakers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
