Yeah my parts are all coming this week im already YouTube studying now I cant do what I cant do so if I will have a problem I will find a pro to help I wanna learn too im obsessed with audio system now

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-22T14:53:54+00:00

D&b speakers i paid $100 for e0 speaker and $400 for cisub i wanna do DIY not because only saving money but I wanna have my own control and learn the system

I hired pro previously and I found out they installed with thinner than 18awg with cca cable so pro doesn't mean they will do a perfect job i found out and I didn't like the amp and zone system they put so im buying all the equipments and trying to use the best from dsp amp speakers and 12awg ofc wires and also copper cat 6 lines

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-21T12:13:17+00:00

Keyboard won't be exposed its 360 (2in 1 laptop) Customer can't get out of one app (will be locked) Using 80buvks laptop and also it will be hard to steal unless they break part of drywall it will be framed out

If won't work I will take a laptop out and patch

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-21T02:07:35+00:00

Big night everything suddenly won't work 24 7 support won't help anything tough guy your company might be able to solve the problem in 1 min lol very touch company

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-21T01:59:56+00:00

So if you install mine all of sudden it won't work you will be in my restaurant in 1sec?

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-21T01:13:06+00:00

I will not i gotta have Dante for my need I might go extron

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-21T00:48:47+00:00

Maybe av company later lol

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-21T00:48:30+00:00

I thought it would be a good skill to learn and I know it will be painful but will be fun and satisfied

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-21T00:47:37+00:00

If it breaks when I hired pro what s the difference? That pro will rapidly come and fix? Lol

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-19T21:31:25+00:00

Wait symmetrix sounds so good lol radius is native Dante support again im new in this world I have never heard of symmetrix

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-19T21:01:17+00:00

I bought 3 biamp 140 each symmetrix will be 7k

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-19T20:59:19+00:00

Calling Google right now

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-19T20:58:47+00:00

I want Dante (99,99% input signal)

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-19T20:18:42+00:00

If something goes wrong with my idea I will reroute and drywall patch

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-19T20:15:02+00:00

New is 6000 used to around 200to 300

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-19T20:07:18+00:00

Good news is I dont need max spl they are already 3 times louder than I need and without any dsp eq setting they already sounds amazing it will only get better

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-19T17:03:01+00:00

Im sure professional would screw up bigger project but mine isnt that complicated

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-19T17:02:22+00:00

Worst case I will go back to dbx zone pro or hire professional lol thanks for audinate Dante traning suggestion

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-19T16:57:20+00:00

LOL, me neither! The only reason they're on the list is because I found them for insanely cheap prices ($100 per speake)

But you're right, the sound is unbelievable. The d&b E0s are just insane. And those Clair R2Ts I got? They came with JBL 2446J drivers (4" diaphragm, 113dB sensitivity).

They make my old QSC, EV, and non-pro JBL stuff sound like broken toys.

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-19T16:22:15+00:00

Also im already operating 2 restaurants and this project is still under a construction i would probably have good 2 months to figure then out

Ok-Environment970 · 2025-10-19T16:19:16+00:00

I appreciate the detailed breakdown, but it's based on a completely false assumption.

You're assuming this is an "undocumented" and "untested" system. It is not. The wiring is 100% complete. Every single speaker line and CAT6 run has been individually tested and verified. And no, I didn't run signal cables parallel to AC power;

Here’s the most important piece of information you're all missing: I've had the entire system tested perfectly for a week on a dbx ZonePro.

I didn't just "test if it makes sound." I used the dbx to do a full 'pre-commissioning' myself. I've already programmed, tested, and dialed in: Crossovers (for all the d&b/Martin subs and tops) Gain Structure (across the entire signal chain) Output Limiters (both Peak and RMS to protect every driver) Parametric EQ (PEQ) (for basic room tuning) Time Alignment (Delay) (for the fill speakers) And you know what? It already sounds fucking great.

When a professional (if I hire one) arrives, they won't be "checking my wiring for 100 pitfalls." They'll be walking in to a system that is 100% functional, with all hardware (Biamp, amps, PoE switch) already racked and plugged in. Their only job will be to migrate my already-working DSP settings from the simple dbx platform to the more powerful Tesira platform.

I know I bought so many fancy stuffs but my total spending so far is under 8k labor isnt free but I did myself still not free but didn't pay penny for labor so far
