Baptist church sound reinforcement upgraded in Nordhorn, Germany
The Baptistenkirche Nordhorn, as its German name suggests, is a Baptist church located in Nordhorn, Germany. Tom Fuhrmann, Pro Audio consultant in Pan-pro GmbH, has been in charge of the church sound reinforcement.
Baptistenkirche Nordhorn is a religious community that aims to help others to know Jesus, to be inspired by him and to increase their faith in him. It is a community committed to the well-being of the people of its city.
The church needed to upgrade its sound systems for a clear voice reproduction and the installer decided to set up IONIC column speakers, which are designed for reverberant installations such as houses of worship. These column speakers are lightweighted, providing easy set ups in fixed installations.
The installer chose the following set-up: 3 x IONIC 100 for main area, 7 x IONIC 50 for senior space and under balcony, 1 x IONIC 18S all feeded by Yamaha MTX5D and RS4-4000 amplifiers.
Tom Fuhrmann stated: “It has been found that the IONIC series from Lynx Pro Audio delivers excellent results, specially in acoustically demanding rooms. Significantly improved speech intelligibility and a balanced sound image were decisive for the customer’s satisfaction.”
In white colour, these cabinets are a low profile, discreet column, melting in the church’s white environment. Fuhrmann stated that the customers “are happy with installation”.
In the main area we find 3 Ionic-100 passive column speakers. The Ionic-100 uses 12 x 3″ (0.75″ voice coil) neodymium transducers offering a coverage of 15º +/-5º V x 100º H and 121dB SPL.
For senior space and under balcony we find 7 Ionic-50 passive column speakers. The Ionic-50 is a compact column speaker with 6 x 3” (0.75” voice coil) neodymium transducers offering a coverage of 15º +/-5º V x 100º H and 119dB SPL.
As low frequency reinforcement, we find the powered subwoofer Ionic-18S. This subwoofer uses 1 x 18” (3” voice coil) neodymium transducers with 132 dB SPL.
The installation was feeded by an RS4-4000 amplifier, designed for professionals who demand quality, reliability and value.
The Ionic series are available in a variety of colours/finishes by request, in this case, white RAL colour. As standard the full-range cabinets are finished in anti-rust steel and the subs in rugged, premium birch plywood, coated with polyurea paint. All are protected by front steel grills and backed with a special triple layer, acoustic textile which allows greater air flow and reduces heat and humidity.
