NORTHRIDGE, CA – OCTOBER 14, 2002 – JBL Professional’s EVO
speakers were chosen for installation into Vienna’s new
Leopold Museum. Leopold Museum features sophisticated architecture
with classical, elegant solutions. JBL’s EVO speaker system
has been installed in a multipurpose room inside the museum. This
117-seat room is used for a variety of functions including concerts,
podium discussions, movies, and presentations.
One of the
new museums in Vienna’s art district, the five-story Leopold
Museum houses the art exhibition of Rudolf Leopold. The collection
of more than 5,000 paintings includes works by artists such as
Egon Schiele, Gustav Klimt, and Oskar Kokoschka.
The installation
was completed by audio specialists, Georg Vanek and Franz Bocksteiner/Ton&Technik,
who chose EVO because of its functionality and ease of use. The
high standards set by the museum required an audio system that
would perform perfectly; it was determined that EVO was the speaker
system suitable for the task. Another factor in the decision to
choose EVO was its compact and elegant design and ability to be
mounted horizontally, allowing for speaker placement below the
ceiling line.
Vanek, pleased
with the installation, stated, “It sounds very good; plays
very good; everything fits.” Bocksteiner agreed saying,
“Achieving an acoustical solution of the highest standards,
such as in this venue, is only possible in liaison with clients
and brand names we trust. Over the course of my career, JBL has
proven that they don’t compromise any quality.”
The EVO installation
in Leopold Museum’s multipurpose room turned out so well
that the installers were asked to install other systems. The museum’s
coffee shop, Café Leopold, now features several other JBL
products including the Marquis Series MS28, Control 1, and EON
G2 speakers.
EVO is a complete, ready to use sound system with automatic digital control
over room equalization, feedback suppression, delay settings and
amplifier dynamics. An ideal audio system for churches, schools,
performing arts centers, civic meeting sites and other small to
medium size installations, the EVO System can be installed and
tuned in a matter of hours. The complete EVOi.SYS Sound system
includes intelligent powered speakers, mixer, wireless and wired
microphones, system controller, and all necessary cables and stands.
