Honestly, I'm pretty skeptical about using HT equipment in a room that big. It's going to take a lot of power to fill. Sorry to be the naysayer. I think the Emotiva might be a pretty good idea. I mean, if we're talking vaulted ceilings, maybe estimate that as average height 12 ft, that's 16800 cubic feet to fill. Hey, I appreciate the feedback. You're thinking a pro amp and no EP500 because it'll make little difference, Ken? I'm setting everything up the afternoon of the party, so I have to be sure everything will be sufficient. Thanks Please give them my best wishes & congrats at the event. Will do, Ray; thank you.

Cam, rooms can't be "filled"(wish we would get rid of that term)with equal levels at all locations. Your present equipment should be fine. Have an "enforcer" available to throttle any guest who'd try to "crank it".

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Wait, we can get you and Sharon here. Oh yes we can!
Hmmmmm? Intrigued for sure. I wish I could but it's unlikely. Stupid scientists. Not inventing teleportation yet. What's wrong with you guys???

I imagine the EP500 would do something, but it's probably not going to fill the hall with booming bass.

I think the biggest determination is whether you plan on playing contemporary music for dancing (read: Loud), music for the older folks to dance (read: Moderate) or background music for socializing (read: Soft).

I was thinking that I could take my Paradigm Monitor 9's and run them off the receiver, whilst using the RPA-1 for my M80's. Those four speakers should be easily enough. Not that I don't trust the advice that the M80's alone would be sufficient. It would just ease my mind.
Whatcha' fellas think?
Thanks

Mark, you make a very relevant point, and the answer is that the majority of music is the latter two. We've chosen mostly oldies, but there is at least a dozen more recent dancing songs from artists like the Eagles, Dire Straits, Joe Cocker, and Tom Petty etc. Thanks

Sounds like a good plan to me. The more drivers, the better.

Scientists have actually teleported photons (over a short distance). If you can drop enough mass, they can teleport you, too.
