Im the sound tech at a 1200 person theater. The system there now is horrible. |

The mains are two flown carvin TCS210 speakers, with two apogee subs flown behind big concrete pillars, and way out of time with the mains. There is only one good listening spot in the house. the coverage of the system is terrible. In short, the system sucks. |

The theater itself wasn't made for PA systems, and has a lot of concrete walls, with very little sound absorption or diffraction material. The sides of the theater are 4 huge concrete pillars. So there is a lot of reverberation from the speakers, causing feedback and somewhat incoherent sound. |

My question, what kind of system would work for a place like this? |

I'd love to get a line array with delayed balcony fills, mezzanine under fills, and front fills, but the cost is just out of the question for this theater. |
