Audio Enhances the Experience at Cypress Mountain Resort
Posted on Wednesday, October 29, 2014
October, 2014, Vancouver, BC, Canada –Cypress Mountain is a world-class resort for all forms of winter sports and leisure. Located just outside Vancouver on Canada’s west coast, it was also host to the freestyle skiing and snowboarding events of the 2010 Winter Olympics.
Allstar Pacific Integration Media Solutions based in Vancouver was asked to find an audio system solution for the Patio Ski and Snowboard Park at Cypress Mountain. As the weather can include sub-zero temperatures, heavy snow, rain and direct sunlight, all within a 24-hour period, careful consideration had to be taken to find loudspeakers that could withstand these extreme conditions and ensure good performance for both music and speech applications.
After detailed evaluation, Myk Shaflik, Allstar Pacific’s System Engineer, felt the Community R.5-99 was the best fit, both from a performance perspective as well as ease of installation. Designed for high power music and speech, the two-way, 12-inch coaxial R.5-99 provides full-range audio with 90 x 90-degree dispersion. The system is sponsored by Skullcandy who wanted to use the product as a vehicle for advertising their brand. Allstar carefully added the Skullcandy logo to the grilles of the loudspeakers, ensuring the look that both the client and sponsor appreciated. A single pair of R.5’s was used to achieve complete coverage of the park. With the ability of the audio to travel far up both sides of the main ski areas on the mountain, the loudspeakers provided the quality, clarity and coverage that Myk Shaflik wanted. The loudspeakers are powered by QSC RMX series amplifiers and a portable rack located in the power house allows for multiple applications from daily program music to competition reinforcement, with quick and easy setup. Andrew George, Terrain Park Manager at Cypress Mountain, commented, “Having the opportunity to partner with leading edge sound companies such as Skullcandy and Allstar Pacific in bringing music to our terrain parks has been a fantastic experience. From events to our daily operations, our customers will agree that skiing and snowboarding is even more fun with a soundtrack.”
