For 5000 people just buy a commercial line array mid high element (ok, buy a few of them) and then build your subs if you want to get the plywood out. You’re going past the realms of DIY stuff with that size gig.
(Firstly, I can only think of a couple of ‘DIY’ crews who would get their rig at that kind of event, and even the first 2 that spring to mind are either turning to commercial top boxes, or turning their hire business into manufacturing- after years of building their business up. (RC1 and Elektrikal.) Nobody wants DIY boxes at events like that. (Nobody = the people paying for it, or the H&S Manager). |

Kf850 is £500 a box now and 3 a side will do what you want. Cost you far less than the new components to build some boxes and be half rider friendly.

I fully understand that. 5000 was a little outrageous.

3 per sideof KF850 will not do 5000 people.
Try 6 per side, and those are 100kg boxes that i will hot lift on top of subs for any amount of money.

Budget is not set yet.
As for music it will be commercial, rock, club tracks and country. I need a full range system that can do crisp vocals and full sounding music No live band stuff. All dj tracks. The venue will be rodeo arenas. |

well, where are you then? it was probably the mention of rodeo arenas that made someone think you were likely in the states.
