IPKII -
Home runs are always better. They're not real practical on large PA jobs, but the more, the merrier. (I just finished an 8,000+ speaker job at JFK airport and all those home runs just wouldn't have worked)
One thing though. My practices have always been to NEVER run solid wire for a speaker. With the vibration associated with a speaker or horn I was always taught to go with stranded wire to prevent the solid wire from eventually breaking off.
I like the idea of pulling the bridge clips to test - very handy! And if you're running audio and -24 I imagine then you're using powered speakers. When I last priced them out (admittedly a long time ago) they weren't cost effective against a constant voltage system with a centralized amplifier(s) once you got past 10-12 speakers - is that still the case?
