Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners EP500 work at a hall?

Hey guys,

My sister and I are having a surprise 40th anniversary party on the 30th for my parents. The hall we've rented holds 80 people, is 1400 sq. ft., and my sister said it has a vaulted ceiling.

I'm taking my Denon 3801 and M80's, but I'm wondering if my EP500 would be powerful enough to fill that large of a room, and whether or not I'll need my Emotiva RPA-1 (I'm thinking yes)?

If the RPA-1 (300 watts/channel) still won't be enough juice, I could probably rent a pro amp, but I really don't want the added expense.

Your input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Cam
