NORTHRIDGE,
CA - OCTOBER 5, 2002 - Business Television Video (BTV) Systems Inc.
of Walled Lake, Michigan specializes in the design, sales and installation
of state of the art audio and video systems for a number of retail,
restaurant, corporate and entertainment clients throughout the United
States. For their small retail and restaurant customers, BTV has
discovered the SMS1 Soundzone Music System from JBL Professional.
BTV was recently contacted by Fossil to recommend and install the
sound systems in some of their accessory stores. Their requirements
were for a low-cost/low-power sound system that is easy to use and
designed for stores of 2000-2500 square feet. They specifically
asked for a system that did not require racks for amplifiers and
controllers.
Courtney Crighton of BTV proposed the SMS1, which consists of four 5" satellite speakers and one subwoofer. The innovative subwoofer is housed in a compact enclosure that also includes the power amplifiers for all speakers and controls for volume, paging and other functions. All the customer sees are the small 5" speakers, as the subwoofer is easily concealed. "There are several reasons why the SMS1 system is ideal for small retail stores and restaurants. Most importantly, it offers full-range sound in a very compact system. Also, the SMS1 is very uncomplicated, making it easy for employees to run," stated Crighton. "The SMS1 has also proven to be very cost-effective for our customers. From a construction standpoint, it is also very quick and easy to install." One of the first Fossil stores to receive the system was at the Woodlands Mall in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The four satellite speakers were installed in four corners just below the ceiling. The subwoofer was placed inside a storage/display cabinet that resembles a sixty's style television, to make it totally invisible to the store's customers.
