I am setting up for a trivia fundraiser tomorrow night. The room is a "multi-use" room. In other words, a concrete box. I was in the room the other day and when empty it is an echo chamber.
The room measures 90' deep by 45' wide, the ceiling is 19'. There is a permanent carpeted stage at one end that is 24" high x 10' deep and goes the width of the room. The rest of the room is epoxy floor and concrete walls and ceiling. There is some acoustical treatment, but it doesn't do enough.
There are some parts of the trivia where there will be video and music. Other wise it is the normal person reading the questions and whatnot.
My plan is to put two SRX812P on sticks in the front and have them up as high as possible and tilted down and in towards the center. I will have two more further back on a delay. I will also have a SRX828SP at the front in the center of the stage. If I need it I will add a SRX818SP, but I'm not looking for rock concert sound here.
My question is; besides pointing the speakers down and in to keep them from reflecting off the ceiling and walls, what can I do to help out with the reverberations?
I have attached a picture of the room.
