Christ Chapel at Hillsdale College
At Christ Chapel on the campus of Hillsdale College, the challenge was to enhance the audio experience while maintaining the chapel's traditional and timeless aesthetic. The goal was to deliver precise sound for both the congregation and the choir, ensuring the spoken word and music could be heard clearly throughout the expansive space. Traditional sound systems would have disrupted the chapel's historic architecture and acoustics, so a more discreet, high-performance solution was needed.
AVTEK, the trusted audio-visual integrator, turned to K-array’s innovative technology to meet these needs. The solution included the installation of 72x Vyper-KV52 I speakers, 10x Turtle-KRM33 speakers, and 9x Turtle-KRM33P speakers. The KV52 I speakers were strategically placed to provide full coverage of the sanctuary, delivering pristine sound without obstructing sightlines. The KRM33 and passive KRM33P speakers were carefully integrated into the space to provide supplemental audio support for the choir, ensuring they could hear both the pastor and the music with exceptional clarity.
This installation resulted in an audio system that blends seamlessly into the chapel’s design while enhancing the overall worship experience. The K-array speakers not only meet the needs of the space but also preserve the chapel's historical beauty. With AVTEK’s expert installation, Christ Chapel now boasts a modern audio solution that delivers impressive sound without compromising its architectural integrity.
