church sound system quote?

Question by Juan G: church sound system quote?
(i know this is not music/entertainment but it was the CLOSEST category) can anyone suggest a good company that will give me a quote for updating the sound system at my church..i live in South Jersey and my church is less than 200 ppl. My church has very poor acoustics and the sound system needs to get replaced as it’s getting worse every time. I know that a full renewal could get very expensive, if we were to get a whole new sound system, and also if we would choose to remodel parts of the church such as the ceiling to improve the acoustics…but i want to know if anyone can suggest such company, and if they give a free quote even better as we’re a small church and can’t really afford to just pay for a consultation. Thanks

Answer by DJK
I have worked with a company in South Jersey that can do exactly what you need. Please contact me directly and I will forward contact information. Let me know what town the church is in so I can be sure the company services that area.

How to make a cheap surround sound system with headphones?

Question by : How to make a cheap surround sound system with headphones?
I want to make a surround sound system for my room how do I make this with headphones?

Best answer:

Answer by PoohBearPenguin
Headphone speakers aren’t nearly powerful enough to be used as a normal speaker.

They do make headphones which can do surround sound, but they’re still just headphones, and start at $ 150 or so.

Otherwise, if you want a surround sound system for your room, you’re going to have to buy one one of the cheap kits from Walmart or something. Be sure you get a system that has additional optical audio inputs, otherwise you won’t be able to connect additional things to it, like your game console.

ATV/Quad electrical question?

Question by Eagle Scout: ATV/Quad electrical question?
Hello!

I am looking at purchasing my neighbor’s buddy’s quad. This quad had been lent to me for about a week to help at as my legs, since mine were injured in a severe accident. On occasion, I have to put the battery charger on it to start it.

My questions:
a) Typically, are ATVs/Quads generally not equipped with electrical charging systems?
b) If ATVs/Quads are not equipped with a charging system, how long should a “charge” on a “sound” battery last before it has to be recharged?

Thank you for your time and advice!

Best answer:

Answer by Karle
YES atvs have charging systems…..BUT the batteries ONLY last about 2-3 years on average…..sounds like it needs a new battery
