A Creative Solution to Sound Issues
Shanahan's Senior Systems Consultant Shaun Crossen and Senior Engineer James Berlo tapped a combined 40+ years of experience to come up with a creative solution to sound issues plaguing historic First Church in Cambridge, MA. While the room is built for carrying music and the beautiful strains of the church's pipe organ, augmenting the spoken word in the large, reverberant space was an issue.
Shanahan installed black JBL speakers on the antique chandeliers to carry sound to the side areas, the middle and back sections of the church. The speakers meet the asthetic requirements as well by providing coverage that is visually unobtrusive.
