WESTMINSTER, CA – Korean First Presbyterian Church of Orange County, a mega church with more than a thousand members and a 30-year history in the area, recently upgraded with QSC's KLA Line Array Loudspeaker System. Aviwork, Inc. of Fullerton, CA handled the installation and was tasked with designing a sound solution to meet the challenges of the shallow and wide sanctuary, which also has a number of balconies.
With the former system, congregation members sitting in the corners, on the balconies and underneath them weren't able to hear the sermons. After visiting the church several times and analyzing the audio problems, Aviwork recommended QSC's KLA Line Array System as the solution.
"I have been interested in the KLA System since its recent release. It's got an easy rigging system, a good price point and it sounds great," said Hosung Leem, senior AV consultant at Aviwork. "Believe it or not, I didn't even hear the KLA System before recommending it to the church. I didn't have to. I have had so many good experiences with QSC loudspeakers that I already knew the KLA Series would be great."
Leem also credited KLA's SOLO (Single Operator Logistics) rigging system for ease of installation.
"The church insisted on structurally sound equipment as a measure of earthquake protection, and the KLA's rigging system is both solid and easy to do," said Leem. "I get compliments all the time about the great sound from congregation members."
The new KLA System has elicited praise from the pastors as well. "Previously, we had another manufacturer's loudspeakers in the main sanctuary, but these only covered certain areas, and missed areas like the corners of the room and the second floor," said music pastor Young Suk Cho. " With the new KLA System, all areas of the sanctuary are completely covered with adequate volume. Now you can hear everything in every remote part of the room."
