Palm Beach Aquatic Centre enhances community experiences with a flexible multi-zone audio system
Palm Beach Aquatic Centre has completed a major redevelopment, reopening as a modern community destination designed to serve swimmers, fitness users, families and local community groups across the southern Gold Coast.
The Prestige Group worked alongside MadisonAV to develop a solution that extended well beyond the basic paging system originally specified during the planning phase. Instead, the team implemented a true multi-zone design capable of providing localized control across more than 40 independent audio zones, allowing staff to manage announcements and music according to the operational needs of each area.
To meet the acoustic and environmental requirements of the facility, The Prestige Group selected a range of JBL Professional loud speakers designed for both indoor and outdoor applications. Twelve JBL CBT 70J column loudspeakers were deployed in large open areas where controlled coverage and speech intelligibility were critical. JBLAWC82all-weather loud speakers were installed throughout pool halls and other moisture-exposed environments, while JBL Control Series ceiling and surface-mount loudspeakers were integrated throughout fitness areas, studios and ancillary spaces to provide consistent audio coverage across the site.
“The CBT70s are very focusable, with even dispersion,” said Nathan Wright, Project Manager from ThePrestige Group. “They integrate cleanly with the architecture, deliver strong full frequency performance, and are well suited to the environmental conditions.”
