Line Arrays

A few months back The Prayer Palace, a large church in Toronto, refitted their audio system with a line array from Adamson. Here is some background on the installation:

An Adamson Yaxis Y10 line array was recently installed at the Prayer Palace Ministries in Toronto, Ontario. Designed as an audio system re-fit, the Yaxis system is comprised of 16 Adamson Y10 cabinets, with four SpekTrix enclosures used as a centre cluster.

The Prayer Palace is one of the largest houses of worship in North America, with an octagonal-shaped sanctuary encompassing approximately 38,000 square feet. It is the first church to use Adamson’s new SpekTrix, an ultra-compact, true 3-way line array, in a permanent audio system install.

“The Prayer Palace Ministries hold two regular Sunday masses in this space, which doubles as a sanctuary and a 4,500-seat auditorium capable of hosting a variety of other secular and ethnic events,” said Chris Mathany, Technical Services Director for Sound Plus Show Systems of Concord, Ontario, who completed the installation.

Although Concord is not too far from where I live I have not had a chance to visit this facility although I would like to learn more about what they have been doing with their sound system. There was an article on this installation in Professional Sound magazine. I would like to hear the sound system. I’ve attached a photo of part of the line array. Looks impressive.
