Electrosonic Integrates Distributed Systems for Northland Church
Electrosonic Systems was the AV designer and integrator for the new sanctuary at Northland, A Church Distributed in Longwood, Fla., as it moved from a converted skating rink seating about 1,200 parishioners to a purpose-built sanctuary seating 3,000 and boasting classrooms for adults and children, a day-care center, cafe, bookstore, and offices. A nondenominational distributed church, Northland streams its services online and coordinates with services held at other locations in Florida and across the globe.

Electrosonic project manager Tim Wilson says, "[The AV integration of the 160,000-square-foot facility was] a mammoth audiovisual integration job. In addition to the new equipment we provided, Northland brought half as much gear from their former location. With so many components, the level of complexity in bringing it all together was quite a challenge." more>>
