What To Look For In A New Audio Visual System

By Eric M Odessean


Advanced sound systems are becoming more and more prevalent these days. As technology, in general, becomes more advanced many businesses and churches are looking into upgrading or installing state of the art sound systems to make worship and events more pleasant for attendees. Is a new sound system really necessary and what should you be looking for? With money being an obvious issue for all of us, being frugal is necessary while being educated is a must.

Price is often the biggest consideration when we're talking about upgrading or expanding a PA system or audio visual system for a church or any other establishment, as far as that's concerned. Some people are going to balk at the price tag, of course, but the necessity and need should be discussed first. An old sound system can be embarrassing to any venue, as a whole. Whether it be your normal Sunday service, a wedding or any gathering, it sets a bad tone, so to speak, when malfunctions occur or when the sound system simply isn't as robust and reliable as you might hope it could be. Imagine having a problem during a wedding or having older attendees having difficulty hearing the speaker from the back of a large room. Vital information is lost and people become frustrated.

A newer sound system is almost invisible and it can only enhance the listener's experience while an old crackling PA system detracts from what your audience came to see and hear. New headsets that are almost invisible and which utilize wireless technology help both the audience and the speaker to forget that sound is being amplified. Say goodbye to old school lapel mics and a speaker being chained to the front of the room or the pulpit, so to speak.

When you first start gathering information and researching your new PA or audio visual system, have some fun learning about the many options that are available to you. Embrace the technology and allow yourself to dream a little bit. The ability to broadcast, record and broadcast at a later date as well as integrating visual aspects into a simple PA system are all things that you can think about. How will these elements benefit your organization and are these options a possibility now or in the near future?

Choose a PA system that can grow with your church and look a few years into the future and plan for the almost unexpected applications where a robust sound system might be helpful. A solid, basic system that can be expanded upon and well thought out is an investment that the church will benefit from for years to come.
