JBL EVO INTELLIGENT SPEAKERS INSTALLED AT FLORIDA'S B'NAI TORAH TEMPLE

BOCA RATON, FLORIDA - JANUARY 17, 2002 - Set off the street in one of Boca Raton's busiest areas, the B'nai Torah Temple is more than a synagogue. The Temple is a complete educational, community and religious complex serving the Boca Raton area. In 2001, the management of the temple opted to completely renovate their main 600-seat sanctuary. The high-ceiling room was also in great need of a new sound system and at the recommendation of TM Sound and Lighting, JBL Professional's new EVO Intelligent Speaker System was installed.

"The B'nai Torah Temple was in need of a complete renovation. They knocked down walls and reworked the decorative arch of the ceiling and the front of the room. Several sound systems had been installed over the years, but the audio quality was never quite right," stated John Beers of TM Sound and Lighting. "The EVO speakers, which replaced the main loudspeaker system, not only fit into the new design of the structure, but they aesthetically complement it as well. They just seem to blend into the room."

B'nai Torah Temple's new EVO system was inaugurated on the high holy days in September 2001. "Cantor Simon Spiro and the Montreal Choir sounded fantastic," stated Beers. "They are extremely pleased with the sound quality of their new EVO System. For the first time, the temple sounds as beautiful as it looks."

The EVO Intelligent loudspeaker system installed at the B'nai Torah Temple includes two EVOi.324 powered speakers mounted on the sides of the stage. Each speaker is plugged into the adjacent AC outlet and a standard XLR cable runs from the speaker to the EVOi.net controller at the mix position. Each EVO speaker is a three-way system with 1200 watts of internal power and built-in electronics to allow it to compensate for environmental changes and suppress feedback upon occurrence. The EVOi.net controller facilitates the tuning and equalization of the EVO speakers.

In the event that the Temple later chooses to add rear speakers, the EVOi.net would automatically set the delays between the front and rear speakers for maximum intelligibility and clarity. The system can also be monitored and controlled via computer using the free EVO DCI software with computer access through an RS232 port on the front of the EVOi.net.
