Possible, only issue is I can't get too boomy. Noise complaints can be a issue. I think the 728's would be over kill.

The dance area is like 30 ft wide, and 15 feet deep. So more like a rectangle.

I used 4 prx635 last night, 2 per side, sounded great and no heat issues. Only down fall they weren't high enough over people's head.

I will check into the srx series a little more. Maybe just one 728 would do the trick.

The EV's are old and I don't remember. I know they use the eminence woofer. They are 15's.

So all 4 are hooked into one pv2600.
The 2 subs are hooked up to other pv2600.

The 635 are used for mobile gigs as he does weddings on his own, he refuses to put new speakers in or upgrade anything. He is stubborn as *beep*. Since the EV's are distorting like crazy, pretty much blown, we are using the prx635's for now until we replace the EV's / pv subs or repair them. If we decide to replace them, then the owner is just going to use the sp2's he has, which would be putting 450w to each speaker, (4 total) which are 1000w program... So looks like we be going to same issue again down the road.

The drive rack is the first pa. Although there is no presets for those speaker in the driverack I managed to get it sounding really well but we still are having to push the system overboard to get as loud as we want.

I noticed with the 635's our dj mixer was barely bouncing into yellows and the speaker itself would never flash the limiter light and we was only using 2, where the other system would sometimes hit red.  So something like the 635's would work just fine, however, with us using the system 20 hours a week, I think powered speakers wouldn't fit our needs. Afraid the speakers wouldn't get the air flow they need as we had issues this pass weekend.

So something around 5k is the budget. This would be coming out of my pocket, I can't stand djing on a system that is 10+ years old and underpowered.

This is installed permanently. However, this would be my system that I am letting owner use (my father).

So what I am looking at is:

1. 2 prx415m with 1 prx 418s (maybe 2 if I can manage the bass waking up the neighbors.)

2. 2 prx425 since I may be limited on the bass waking the neighbors up.

So question - which amp for the sets. Get a new drive rack?
