ATLANTA — Coweta County administrators in suburban Atlanta are using three Technomad Turnkey PA systems for the county’s Fairgrounds and Conference Center, including two recently-installed 70-volt Turnkey systems for 6,000 square feet of meeting and exhibit space within the conference center.
Tom Corker, administrative and operations director for Coweta County Administration, said those two systems replaced an unsatisfactory in-ceiling audio system. The longevity of the outdoor Turnkey PA system that has been operating at the outdoor W.C. Adamson Horse Arena was a factor in choosing Technomad gear for the most recent upgrade.
“The outdoor system has been untouched since installation five years ago, and has reliably projected clear voice and music to every corner of the arena,” said Corker. “So it made sense to go with Technomad when it came time to upgrade the Conference Center systems. These systems have performed exceptionally well in an acoustically challenging environment. The 70-volt configuration indoors also simplified system design and installation, allowing us to daisy-chain multiple loudspeakers together to accommodate longer runs.”
The 70-volt Turnkey PA systems are specifically designed for restaurants, retail spaces and other facilities that need indoor or outdoor powered through a single amplifier.
The two Coweta County Administration systems feature a total of 10 Technomad Vernal loudspeakers, which can be linked together for large events; or divided into two separate systems (six and four Vernals, respectively) to provide audio in two different rooms depending on the size of the audience.
Each system is powered by a separate Technomad Turnkey PA signal processing rack featuring an amplifier and six-channel mixer, and also includes a dynamic microphone, cables, connectors and additional rack space for source equipment.
The outdoor Turnkey PA system is a fixed install system that includes three Technomad Noho C loudspeakers as well as an amplifier, six-channel mixer, wired microphone, wireless microphone, cables, connectors and additional rack space for source equipment.
“The weatherproof design has been critical for the horse arena system, as Coweta County gets hit with hard rains and very hot summers,” said Corker. “The Nohos are black and absorb a lot of heat without problems while remaining unprotected from the elements. And the audio quality remains unaffected.
“Indoors and outdoors, the loudspeakers project very well and reproduce low, mid and high frequencies very clearly,” Corker added. “We never have to worry about anyone not hearing music or a presentation regardless of their distance from the loudspeakers.”
