XTA SPEAKER CONTROL IS THE PERFECT CHOICE FOR
THE NEW RIVER PERFORMING ARTS CENTER— XTA DP202 and DP226 processors are brought in
as the “ultimate speaker processing choice” —
111th AES CONVENTION, NEW YORK, NY, November 30, 2001 — The River Center, a massive three-section new performing arts center connected with the University of Georgia and slated to open in the Spring of 2002, will feature complete speaker control and processing using XTA DP202 and DP226 systems. A total of 21 XTA DP Series systems — 11 DP202 2 X 2 units and 10 DP226 2 X 6 units — will be used as the main speaker processing systems for all of the speaker systems in each of the new River Center’s three separate component buildings. The use of the XTA DP Series systems, brought in to replace the matched control systems of the speakers, further underscores the high degree of compatibility, flexibility and reliability that have defined the XTA processing systems for years.The River Center is made up of three distinct performance spaces: a main stage theater, a smaller recital hall, and a unique experimental theater hall designed without proscenium or other traditional theater elements. Each of the three areas has its own specific audio characteristics to which the sound system needed to be adapted and optimized.
“You could easily say that the DP202 and DP226 are the ultimate speaker processing choice in this and many other installations,” observes Anthony Nittoli, Senior Design Consultant of Electro-Acoustics for Jaffe Holden Acoustics, Inc., the Norwalk, Connecticut-based firm which created the sound system design for the entire River Center complex. “We chose the DP Series systems as the front-end processing device for all of the speakers in all of the theaters throughout the complex. This was a decision based on quality, flexibility, price, ease of use, and reliability. Only the XTA DP Series systems met our criteria, and were the only ones we believe exceeded the performance of the speaker manufacturer’s own controller, yet offered complete compatibility with the speakers. That’s why we have specified XTA DP Series controllers on various projects we have in progress — there just isn’t a better choice to be made when it comes to speaker processing and control.”
