The Al McGuire Center, located on Marquette University’s campus, is home of the intercollegiate administrative offices, student- athlete services, practice and game courts, and numerous other facilities. The center originally opened in 2003 and in August 2017, Clearwing Systems Integration installed a new PA and updated control system.
The new system included 16 QSC AP-5152 – 15” two-way surface speakers and 4 QSC GP218-sw – Dual 18” subwoofers. Upgrading the speakers increased court coverage and overall quality of sound for spectators.
In addition, Clearwing downsized the previously installed 20 amps down to 10 QSC Q-Sys Network Amplifiers. Decreasing the number of amps saved space and energy, and reduced the amount of radiating heat. The new and improved system provides a user-friendly experience and more support for processing. The two installed QSC TSC-7w – 7” touchscreen controllers are customizable to the user’s needs and skill level. Limiters were also placed throughout the system to prevent speaker blowout, ensuring quality sound for years to come.
