DISCUSSION
When you can cover an entire facility from one location, a point-source system is almost always the most economical
choice. In this example, we’ve covered the entire bleachers area from a single light pole using only three R-Series loud-
speakers. The equipment cost is significantly lower than the previous distributed system and the design is easy to expand
for coverage of remote concessions, dugouts or the field itself. The lower equipment cost in this design will be somewhat
offset by an increased cost for installation and wiring. Also, this design doesn’t cover the seating area quite as evenly as
the distributed system and there will be more neighborhood spill. Often, these minor tradeoffs are easy to accept given
the reduction in cost.
Field Coverage and Neighborhood Spill
For field coverage, add an additional R2. R2s are available in a variety of coverage patterns for this purpose. To minimize
neighborhood spill, choose the loudspeaker location so the loudspeakers point away from the neighborhood. Also,
mount the loudspeakers high in the air and point them downward.
Colors show sound level variation in audience areas.
Field, press box and other areas will also receive sound
(not shown).
R2 for long-throw coverage.
R2/R1 for mid-throw coverage.
R.5 for short-throw coverage.
