Basics of Commercial Music Sound Systems

• Need a Music Sound system for a restaurant,
  school, warehouse, or other institutional
  building to play background music or broadcast
  announcements? A high-voltage system frequently
  offers the most cost-effective, useful, and
  secure alternative.
• Customusic is the best place for most
  organizations, commercial audio equipment
  performs better than residential audio equipment

Take a look at our packaged systems.

• Not sure where to begin? Visit our packaged
  systems page. For instance
• restaurant speaker system from Customusic
• JBL's brewery package Atlas Sound's retail sound
  systems
• a sound system from Atlas Sound for a classroom
  or training space
• If you can't find a package that works for your
  company, we can develop one specifically for you.

Receive a free, personalized system design.

• Call our Commercial A/V Design Group at
  1-800-632-1808 for professional guidance and a
  free system proposal for your company.
  Alternately, you can upload your floorplans and
  submit a Music Sound design request. You can
  plan your system and assemble everything with the
  aid of our designers.

The ideal solution might not be a typical stereo
receiver.

• A small business, like a restaurant, could get by
  with a typical home stereo receiver and a few
  pairs of speakers but, that setup could not
  function well in a system with many speakers and
  extensive wire runs.
• Standard stereo amplifiers produce low-voltage,
  high-current signals that must be powered by
  thick speaker lines, which are relatively
  expensive. It gets trickier to connect speakers
  securely the more speakers you add to a Music
  Sound system. It's possible that you'll need
  additional amplifiers, which would significantly
  increase expenditures.

What a 70-volt system has to offer

• A 70-volt system has a limited current flow
  because of the high voltage. You can utilize
  speaker wires that are thinner and less
  expensive. These systems' amplifiers don't
  experience "load impedance" problems. How many
  speakers you connect with is irrelevant.

7
changeable power levels for speakers

• A 70-volt system's speakers resemble residences
  that are connected to a power transmission line.
  A transformer built into each speaker reduces the
  high voltage to a level that the speaker can
  manage. The transformer contains several taps
  that can be used to supply the speaker with
  various wattages. The speaker will play louder
  the greater the wattage tap.
• Any number of speakers can be used as long as
  their combined wattage rating does not exceed the
  amplifier's power limit. Typically, 10 to 20
  percent of an amplifier's output is set aside by
  system designers as additional headroom for those
  sporadic periods of peak demand. This means that
  80 to 90 5-watt speakers might be easily powered
  by a single 500-watt amplifier, providing a
  sizable amount of commercial speaker system.

• An announcement or background music can be
  produced with as little as one watt from a
  speaker that is around 10 feet away from the
  listener (two watts in a noisy environment like a
  restaurant or grocery store).
• How can the number of speakers in each room be
  determined? As a general guideline,
  ceiling-mounted speakers in open areas should be
  spaced apart by twice the height of the ceiling.
  Four ceiling-mounted speakers spaced 20 feet
  apart from each other would adequately cover a 40
  by 40-foot space with a 10-foot ceiling.

Sound treatments

• The first two components of superb soundthe
  appropriate equipment and appropriate speaker
  placementhave already been discussed. Acoustic
  treatments are the third component, albeit it's
  sometimes forgotten.
• The first two components are typically
  insufficient for most structures. Even the best
  speakers might not sound all that great in a
  space with plenty of hard surfaces. The echoes
  and reverberations that cause an uncomfortably
  loud level of noise are eliminated by acoustic
  panels.
• What sort of acoustic panels do you require,
  though? Exactly how many?
• Based on the dimensions and peculiarities of your
  rooms, your Crutchfield system designer can offer
  a tailored solution.

PA devices

• While 70-volt systems are ideal for background
  music and brief announcements, they are not the
  best option for staged events like speeches,
  school plays, church services, live music, or
  performances. You require a different PA system
  for that. You can get assistance from your system
  designer in picking the appropriate live sound
  speakers, mixers, amps, microphones, and
  connections. Alternatively, you might begin by
  looking at our store speakers bundles.
