Peoria Civic Center Audio Upgrade - Project Profile Teaser
“The feedback so far has been very positive. A lot of our board members have been to several events and they've made positive comments on how nice the system sounds...they've even noticed just the presentation of the system, you can see the arrays, it looks impressive..I think just the presentation has made a big impact also.”
Will Kenney - Director of Operations at the Peoria Civic Center
Project Details
CVLAV was honored to be selected by Anthony James Partners and Purdue University to assist in designing and executing the new arena sound system that would not only match the intensity of the Purdue Boilermakers' fans, but also deliver uncompromised and intelligible sound to all seats in the bowl. To add to the challenge, we also needed to find a way to accomplish this without adding extra weight to the catwalk.
