A special audio installation for Totnes RC Church

A leading church audio installer in the west-country, Kernow AV Installations, has recently completed an installation that required a few finishing touches that aren’t normally asked for by their ecclesiastical clients.

Kernow AV Installations has completed more than fifty installations in churches and chapels throughout Devon & Cornwall but this was the first time that they had been asked to re-paint the speakers.

“We regularly use TOA H2S compact line-array speakers in church installations both for their performance and for the off-white finish which seems to blend in with the walls better than you would imagine” said director, Stephen Gilbert.

“Because the walls were red brick and all other furnishings were black, our client required the speakers to be re-painted the same which we arranged with a specialist company recommended by the manufacturer. The finish was superb and we would certainly consider this option in future”.

Another requirement to overcome was the installation of a slimlinegooseneck microphone and a boundary microphone on the ambo and altar respectively.

There was no access to either ambo or altar through the marble steps so Kernow AV Installations looked to the Sennheiser SPK300 wireless plug-in module that will also provide essential phantom power to the two condenser microphones.

This has resulted in a very discrete yet highly effective installation and one that the congregation appear delighted with.
