Author Topic: Theater Chains Sound Systems Keegan O'Brien Film Handler Posts: 39 From: Eugene, Oregon, United States Registered: Sep 2011 posted 12-30-2011 12:39 PM                     Sorry if a question like this has been asked before. I know that, at least in all or most Regal theaters built in the past few years, that they've been installing Klipsch speakers in all of their non-IMAX theaters. What brands do chains such as AMC, Cinemark, etc... primarily use?  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 12-30-2011 05:34 PM                     Seen a lot of JBL installs....  |  IP: Logged David Zylstra Master Film Handler Posts: 432 From: Novi, MI, USA Registered: Mar 2007 posted 12-30-2011 06:06 PM                     We use QSC for new builds and upgrades, older buildings are JBL - we have 7 locations in Michigan. If I recall correctly the AMC ETX auditorium used for ShowEast had QSC speakers.  |  IP: Logged Jeff Taylor Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 601 From: Chatham, NJ/East Hampton, NY Registered: Apr 2000 posted 02-11-2012 11:06 AM                     The last one I built was a Showcase 16. JBL's were spec'd along with Ashly amps.  |  IP: Logged Dominic Espinosa Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1172 From: Boulder Creek, CA.

All JBL screen channels and surrounds mostly with a few EV surrounds. Pretty much all the other junk has been pulled.  |  IP: Logged
