Kam Kung Church
Hong Kong based SOUND PROJECTS agent Shalom AV Technology Ltd. delivered and installed the audio system for the Kam Kong Christian church, located at the northern part of Hong Kong. The building, which used to be a cinema, houses about 1200 people. Rossini Lo, project designer at Shalom AV, was responsible for the audio system design.
Besides excellent speech reproduction the audio system reinforces the worship band. The band is very dynamic and performs both mellow and upbeat music, while the whole church congregation sings along. The worship band includes standard drum set, bass guitar, guitars, keyboards and around eight vocal singers.
With the choice for a Sound Projects sound system, the church met its high criteria. Important of course was very clear speech (even under loud worship music) with high intelligibility and low noise. Minimal deviations in SPL throughout the audience guarantee immaculate intelligibility and reproduction of very soft prayer to loud, upbeat gospel music.
The specified system contains the following self powered cabinets:
2 x SP-4 Diamond as main Left / Right speaker
2 x SP-4-15 as subwoofer
2 x SP-2 as centre cluster speaker
4 x SP-2 as rear delay speaker
Rossini Lo also reported another Sound Projects installation in a smaller church (450 people) in Hong Kong. Here the installation consisted of a set of SP-2 cabinets in matching white finish. The SP-4-15 subwoofers will fill the church with the lowest notes down to the lowest fundamental of the church organ (32 Hz). The church is going to produce 24 bit recording CDs.
