Darren I am using a dual octagon setup with ambisonic plus stereo playback. I have custom decoder implemented in Scope--Soniccore. I am using Genelec speakers with larger for the front and small for the rear. The addition of powered speakers is that the addition gives much greater sound pressure. The advantage of distributed sound sources is that the sound level is more tolerable than from two. They are in a 1000 sq. ft. room ThomasChen In a message dated 5/5/2011 6:07:32 A.M.

Hi Darren here, I am doing a surround sound / octagon (8 speakers) setup using ambisonic software to create immersive sound running out of "M-aduio firewire 410" I am wanting to do 30-80 people in a room I want to do testing in house and use for live setup as well - what you think is the cheapest option being 8 speakers. 1. What speakers should: (to buy) a) Monitors (near field) powered - would these work ? being near field. b) or just powered speakers. Please any ideas of what to buy with this setup thanks Darren -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
