"Helping You Sound Your Best"

Gibson City Bible Church

Gibson City, Illinois

This congregation has moved to their new facilities on the edge of time.   It is a very comfortable sized, 400 seat multipurpose gymnasium.  The permanent stage is built into the long side of the room.  All parts of the system are new.

PJ Hoerr the general contractor built a design prepared by AR&D of Peoria, Illinois.  IRC Audio of Indianapolis, Indiana built the system designed by Jordan Audio Consultants.

The system has a three box, two way speakers.  The center box is slightly oversized and uses dual 15" woofers.  The budget would not allow for a separate sub woofer system,  so we reinforced the low end in the main cluster to insure that there is plenty of low frequency energy in the room.

The system is a big step from their 8 channel powered mixer in the previous building,  but then again the worship space is over four times larger too.   The amp rack contains Crown CTs amplifiers with a total of 3200 watt of potential power.  The dbx driverack provides processing for mains and 3 monitor systems. 

A twenty four channel mixing console controls  the main mix,  two floor monitor system,  an overhead choir monitor system,  extension speakers,  radio and recording feeds, and wireless hearing assistance. 

The control booth is in an upstairs technician's room,  out of the way of flying balls. It also holds the video and lighting equipment.   An additional speaker is positioned just outside the booth so the sound technician can hear the same sound as the audience on the floor.  All the speakers are custom built boxes from Concert Systems  LLC of South Bend, Indiana.   The center box contains dual 15" woofers and a 2" throat horn and driver.  The two side fills and the tech speaker all contain a single 12" woofer and the same 2" throat horn and driver.   The floor monitors and overhead choir monitors are also from Concert Systems LLC.  They all utilize coaxial drivers of either 12" or 10" diameter.
