Shanghai Oriental Sports Center equipped with Bosch and Electro-Voice
Published: ASIA
CHINA: The Shanghai Oriental Sports Center has been equipped with an Electro-Voice fully networkable sound reinforcement system, as well as loudspeakers and a public address system from Bosch. The 18,000-capacity integrated sports venue, which is often referred to as the ‘Sea Crown’, covers an area of almost 34.75 hectares.
The sports centre was host to the 14th Fina World Championships earlier this year, so having an effective contingency plan when facing an emergency was a primary consideration for venue owners.
Responding to this, Bosch supplied Praesideo digital public address and evacuation systems, ceiling speakers, and over 1,000 day/night cameras and AutoDome day/night cameras to provide ‘360-degree real-time supervision’ of the space.
The remote controlled system installed includes horn-loaded Electro-Voice EVH speakers as the centre’s main sound system, whilst ZX and SX Series speakers cater for the smaller zones. Precision Series amplifiers power all the zoned loudspeakers from a number of electrical low voltage rooms, whilst R-EV wireless systems, Polar Choice table top paging stations and N/DYM microphones have been fully incorporated throughout the venue.
