Eureka is also the frequent site for activities to support the surrounding community of Mesquite. For its annual Rockets over the Red Mesa 4 July celebration, the resort recently hosted the 31-piece Nevada POPS Orchestra performing a 75-minute programme of American standards.
To ensure the property is well equipped to cater to the needs of its guests and its community, the Casino recently underwent major renovations. A resort-style pool and cabana were constructed, numerous amenities were added to each guest room, and various upgrades were made to the 30,000sq.ft casino, including an audio system featuring new Distributed Design Series ceiling loudspeakers by Community Professional Loudspeakers.
"The casino needed an audio system that could handle a wide range of music and sound output requirements," explains Jesse Edgel of Poll Sound, the contractor who designed and installed the new system. "With so many concerts and public events going on, intelligibility and musicality were both big factors."
Edgel continues, "On this project I wanted the full-range performance of a true two-way co-axial speaker in the casino. The Distributed Design Series was the only one that met our requirements."
Poll Sound installed 20 Distributed Design D5 five-inch, 24 D6 six-inch ceiling loudspeakers and 48 D8 eight-inch loudspeakers throughout the casino. Crown CDi Series amps power the system, with BSS London BLU providing system drive and processing.
