The audio system has been configured for music playback utilising JBL speakers, Crown Amplifiers and a Soundcraft mixer to provide superior, clear intelligible audio throughout the upstairs area. Background and foreground music was required resulting in the installation of six JBL Control 226CT and two JBL Control 19CS in ceiling subwoofers. The speakers are powered by two Crown XLS1000 amplifers.
"The JBL Control 226CT in ceiling speakers are ideal for applications where superior musical impact, voice clarity and high sound levels are required," remarked Paul Raphael, B & H Australia's account manager for Western Australia. "The extremely wide coverage from 6.5" coaxial drivers allows fewer speakers to cover a larger area, reducing overall system cost without sacrificing sound quality. The additional JBL Control 19CS in ceiling subs use advanced proprietary technologies to produce powerful bass from a low profile in-ceiling design."
A SCF-RW5797 Soundcraft Notepad Mixer allows for control and splitting of the upstairs and downstairs system.
"The owner of Helvetica Bar is very impressed with the system and that he intends to upgrade the downstairs system with JBL upon the release of their new pendant speakers," concluded Paul.
