Church Sound System in a round worship space - designed by Power Sound of New England

Power Sound of New England recently completed a sound system installation project at St. Thecla Church in Pembroke Massachusetts. Having their PA systems performing optimally is critical to churches. The unique acoustical characteristics of worship spaces make this a challenge. Hiring sound specialists, Power Sound of New England, specializing in professional PA systems for worship, the parish knew they’d get a custom system providing the vast improvement in sound quality they wanted. The Project: The pastor, Fr. McCarthy, needed an upgraded church sound system for his congregation and he wanted to be sure it was professional quality. The worship space in this architecturally famed Massachusetts church is completely round and features a beautiful a one piece concrete dome ceiling with a cylindrical skylight. There is an unobstructed view throughout the nave as the church was designed and built without any interior columns. Though beautiful, this creates an “incredibly live” acoustical environment so the new church sound system needed to evenly project the audio throughout the space. The old system was “muddy” and “no one could hear.” PSNE was chosen to design and perform the sound system installation, tailored to the specific needs of both the Celebrants and the Music Ministry. The sound system installation plan was designed to provide clear intelligible pro sound evenly around the radial style pews. A church sound system where clarity meets aesthetic quality: This western Massachusetts Church, with its beautiful radial sanctuary featured unobstructed views throughout, so the visual impact of the church sound system is paramount. Speakers have been colored to blend with their environment and are virtually undetectable— in fact what stands out are not the 10-foot tower speakers but the greatly improved pro sound quality they project. rnCustomized Sound for the both Word and the Choir: The sound system features settings for the liturgical style of the Celebrants as well as for controlling the sound system of the music ministry. PSNE programmed the digital sound scenario selector to the ideal settings for a variety of the church’s PA system’s uses. This unique sound scenario selector features settings to automatically compensate for softer voices or louder voices. It features audio presets that automatically set the sound for large and small attendance, automatic seasonal changes as well as for special Masses including weddings funerals and holiday Mass celebrations. The result: Pro sound in the church sound system that is exactly right, every time. For any church worship style, PSNE custom PA systems facilitate improved communication to the congregation. Custom pro sound design and sound system installation for whatever a worship space sound system requirements. Since 1969, Power Sound of New England has been the name churches trust for reliable sound, stat-of-the-art video projection and so much more.rnTo learn more about sound systems for churches we invite you to visit Power Sound of New England’s website: http://powersoundne.com/worshipav.html.
