Just to reinforce what TLS said, I used to work for a large pro-audio company, and the only time we installed a distributed system like this was for situations where the client was trying to keep volumes fairly low – a church for instance. And each zone (front to back) was properly delayed relative to the stage.
Which brings up an important point: Naturally, in a live performance setting, the point of reference for setting up the delay zones is the stage, where the orator or performers are. In a background-music situation like yours, there is no readily-defined reference point.
This whole project seems poorly-conceived. For instance, if the speakers are 13 ft. off the ground, they don’t need to be a mere 10 ft. apart. It almost sounds like you’re going to have the speakers pointing straight down at the floor. Even if that is the intent, which is silly to begin with, you won’t need that many speakers.
I was in an American Eagle Outfitters store a few weeks ago, and they had music playing from some mid-sized JBL speakers (I’m guessing maybe 6-1/2” woofers) mounted on the walls around the store, maybe 9 ft. off the floor, and I’d estimate they had about 8 speakers in the store. They covered the sales floor well, and I didn’t really notice any delay issues. To be fair, I wasn’t really listening for that, but I think I would have noticed if it had been obvious. Just going by memory, I’d say the store size was about 50’ x 65’. So really, I can’t imagine a scenario where you’d need 15 speakers for a room the size of yours.
You should probably reconsider your speaker choice too. Several fairly-insensitive speakers (by pro-audio standards) getting 65 watts may or may not get the “loud” levels you’re looking for indoors. Your 65 watts will go a lot further with some commercial speakers with sensitivity in the 95 dB range or higher.
And certainly, a mere pair of 88 dB-sensitivity speakers @ 65 watts outdoors isn’t going to get anything resembling loud. As far as delay for outdoor speakers, as long as the indoor speakers can’t be heard outside , it won’t be an issue.
