Sport Complexes

The Gryphon Centre Arena is an indoor two-sheet ice arena located on the campus of the University of Guelph. The Gold Rink has a seating capacity of 1,400 and is an Olympic-sized ice rink, home of the Gryphon Hockey Team.

Purpose

The University of Guelph was looking for a new public address and paging system that would be installed in the Gryphon arena.

Challenge

The primary challenge to tackle for this project involved ensuring the minimal amount of reverberation possible throughout the arena.

Solution

The TOA technical team designed a system based on the arena layout using the EASE vac software. The sound system included a center ice cluster of HX-5 - Variable Angle Speakers and along the bleachers are TOA's F2000BTWP - Wide-Dispersion, Weather-resistant, Box Speakers. The system is driven by TOA's DA-250 Multi-channel Digital Power Amplifier and M-9000 - Mixer. 

Feedback

The client was very happy with the resulting sound quality and pleased with the TOA service.

FEATURED PRODUCTS

HX-5
HX-5
Full area coverage and wider bandwidth sound.
The HX-5 is an innovative modular speaker design that incorporates the best characteristics of the traditional, cumbersome woofer enclosure combined with a CD horn-loaded high frequency driver and the full-range compact speaker enclosure without the drawbacks associated with each type. the HX-5 features remarkably easy to control coverage characteristics including problematic low frequencies and can be installed in a multitude of ways while maintaining a modern, unobtrusive appearance. a system is configured by four preassembled modules with four IF drivers and twelve HF dome tweeters. This configuration allows the variable directivity control and low-frequency dispersion control comparable to use a large constant directivity horn speaker. a choice of 4 directivity angles (15, 30, 45 and 60 degrees) can be employed as needed.
