"Our installations take on all number of shapes and sizes, and EAW has the best solutions for just about every application we encounter," stated Newtech's Bill Banfield. "Ashland, Kentucky's Christ United Methodist Church's install was short and sweet: two EAW VR62 compact full-range loudspeakers.
"However, working with Mercer County High School in Harrodsburg, Kentucky, was a different story. There, we installed a multi-zoned system in the gymnasium, featuring six MK5396 two-way full range installation loudspeakers and 10 MK2366 two-way full range installation loudspeakers. Additionally, we installed a new auditorium system featuring one MK5326, one MK5364, four VRM12's, eight CIS80 ceiling loudspeakers and two SMS5 surface mount loudspeakers."
Other EAW/Newtech installs have included Ripley Elementary in Ripley, West Virginia; Frank's Community Center in Boyd County, Kentucky; several churches in Ashland, Kentucky; Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church in Huntington, West Virginia; Elliot County Performing Arts Center in Elliot County, Kentucky; and many more.
Banfield continues, "Some integrators might not make it a priority to cater toward these smaller installs, but the way we see it, local schools, churches, theatres and community centres need crisp, clear and powerful audio just as much as anyone, if not more. And sometimes all they need is the right set of two or four loudspeakers. It's up to us to install that right set, and EAW and North Coast Marketing are there with us, providing the loudspeaker solutions that make the difference."
