LCP refurbishes with Shure-based installation
- Details
In keeping with the building’s recent refurbishment, a modern AV system was required with the brief of ‘audio over visual’. This was desired by LCP to allow the teams to conduct Microsoft Teams meetings, as well as the offices boasting the flexibility for other uses such as conferences, presentations and collaborative meetings, with the option of using the space as a singular large room or divided in two.
Working with the team at Shure, Microsoft AV specialists Symity and Stoke-based integrators Connect Anything, Microflex Advance MXA910 Ceiling Array Microphone were deployed throughout the divisible space, along with Intellimix P300 processors and MXN5W-C Dante loudspeakers completing the installation.
Luke Stonestreet, IT project manager, LC, comments: “We had seen the MXA910 at a few trade shows and knew it would be a great fit with our ‘Audio over Visual’ brief. Being Teams certified, Dante Controlled, POE (eliminating the need for any amplifiers) and optimised for voice, it just made it even easier to choose.”
Due to the complex ceiling tile acoustic arrangement, the placing of the MXA910s took some planning to ensure seamless integration into the overall design of the ceiling space.
With consultation between LCP, the acoustic and Teams Room consultants plus additional engineers, an optimum configuration was identified and delivered.
“The low and congested ceiling design forced us to be clever about the technology we could use,” added Stonestreet. “We needed a product that ensures the correct pickup pattern and right level of configuration to achieve an even voice pickup across the rooms.”
