Nice use of the dreaded EP-2500!! 'Fraid tro say just bought a load of them and in a recent test 4 of them running Turbo TSW718 (amps bridged) made a lab 6400 running the same 4 bins sound a like a headphone amp...

I bought nine of those puppies at $278.00USD each... The top six are in bridge-mono (2X6 stereo) for the house,...and the bottom three...one in stereo and two in parallel drive four monitor-outs to six floor boxes... Those amps simply can't be beat for the $money$...

that beats many music venues really, love the way its all been installed.
only thing that would concern me, is the rear of the amprack being so exposed, and the length of speaker cables from booth to FOH. couldnt the amprack have been placed locked up somewhere up front>? oh yeah, no need for heating now you have an 18k fan heater

Hello Gingerbiscuit69, This church purchased and converted an old Wal-Mart department store so I decided to modify and use an old aluminum network rack that was left behind... I definitely agree that the amps should be close to the loads, but in this particular case there was not a better location to install the rack... I ran two pairs of high performance 10AWG oxygen free copper speaker wired in parallel to one side of each termination point, and 13AWG speaker cable between the amps and each speaker to the other side... My total insertion loss was less than .02-ohms between the amp and speaker at every location!... This picture shows a close-up of the main terminal box before completion...
