Nascar track chooses speaker company Community’s R-series

The previous setup had stands covered by Community M4 loudspeakers mounted on the wheel fence. The R-Series was chosen for its ‘exceptional intelligibility, along with great coverage’.

Pacific Satellite’s Jerry Coté cites a request from the track’s directors to move the speakers from the wheel fence as a great opportunity to redesign the system.

‘We immediately contacted the folks at Community, since they were already familiar with the Speedway,’ he says. ‘We worked to come up with a real-time projection of what we could accomplish.’
 
The new system places 104 R.5HPT boxes on posts at the foot of the stands, providing coverage to the main seating area. Several of the M4 units have been repurposed to reinforce coverage at the outer seating zones.
 
“By using the R.5s and focusing them closer to the stands, we’re able to achieve a much more uniform coverage and greater intelligibility,” Coté concludes.
