Have you been tasked with researching a new PA or audio visual system for your venue, business or church? Has your old system seen better days and you’re looking at the options available to you these days? Wading through the options available to you while taking into consideration the cost can be tricky. After all, you know that you need a new sound system but you aren’t the only one making this decision so you need to be sure you understand what you need to replace the old system as well as plan for the future.
While some stakeholders or parishioners might object to the price of a state of the art sound system, the benefits outweigh the down side of upgrading or installing a newer system when you think about it. How annoying is it to have a technical malfunction during a wedding or Sunday service? What kind of message does it send to visitors when something goes wrong or when it’s difficult to hear a speaker from a distant part of the room? If nothing else, just a like a car, there comes a time when you want to start to look at newer models and think about trading the old one in before you’re old one dies.
A new audio visual system is a piece of equipment that should work without issue and make the time spent in your hallowed halls pleasant. It should enhance the service or event and not detract from it with hissing, popping and crackling or poor performance. Newer technology is so invisible to the viewer that they might not even notice that the person talking is wearing a wireless headset or that the sound speakers are even present in the building. The days of big microphones or trying to hide a lapel mic are gone.
When researching what your venue needs as far as a new PA or audio visual system, keep an open mind. Find out about the various technologies and options that are available to you. As technology speeds off into the future, these technologies become less expensive and more feasible. While you might think that all you want to do is replace an aging sound system with one that is more reliable, you might find that you can add options that you had never even thought of before like CCTV, recording of services or even broadcasting of services or events.
Sizing your sound system to your present venue is all well and good but looking to the future and knowing that there’s a pretty good chance that your organization will be growing is also an important thought to keep in mind. Start out small with a good quality system that can be scaled, expanded, used in different capabilities as well as adding different functionality to it as time goes on is important. Have fun and embrace the technology that is available to you these days as you research your new sound system for your venue or organization.
