Commercial theater equipment?

[jcaut]

Anyone know what kinds of equipment (amps, speakers, subs, etc.) are commonly used in theaters? I know there are standards from Dolby and all, that they have to meet, but is there a pretty broad range of equipment capable of meeting those standards?

I know that Klipsch has line of commercial theater speakers, and I'm relatively sure that I've seen the 'Klipsch' logo on the surround speakers at at least two of the theaters I ususally go to.

I'm going to ask the owner of the local theater if he'll give me a tour the next time I see him.

Approx. 10-20 yrs. ago a co. called Electrovoice made most of the commercial speakers for theaters,churches, and schools. Now JBL has most of the commercial speakers out there. Amps and other elecronics are differant from what I hear.
