I started to write this post during the weekend, but I was just too tired to manage it. The reason being that we ran into major trouble getting the system up this last weekend. The culprit is shown below.
Here’s the rest of the story if you are so inclined to bore yourself. We loaded all the gear up on Wednesday in hopes of getting it all functioning on Thursday. When we got there, they weren’t completely ready for us, so we actually couldn’t start setting up till after 2. When we finally started, the motor wouldn’t work. Come to find out the panel we tied into was higher voltage than normal. The motor said it could handle it, but we didn’t know we needed to open it up and make some adjustments first. Well, we blew the transformer (pictured above hanging out) and had to find another way to run it. By 2:30 we finally had both arrays of speakers hanging and by 3 we had the full system running. We got home around 4 and bed a while later. I had to be up by 8 and Jim was up earlier because he had to go to a funeral. So, I did the rest of the setup. Basically, we were tired all weekend long since we had to start out on less than 4 hours of sleep. Our job came off mostly without a hitch, so that was good. When I finally got some good sleep Sunday, I slept for 11 hours! I think I woke up once and went right back out. Now that you are thoroughly bored, I will end this and go to sleep. I’m off to MBA to check out the sound system in the morning.
cheers!
