RIVERSIDE SPORTS BAR
Recently opened in August 2024, NZAV was proud to be associated with the new Riverside Sports Bar "The Loft, building on the success of its sister venue, the Kaiser Brew Garden. The vision of the owners was to create a “high-end” venue suitable for customers to view their favourite sports events on the 3.7m x 2.2m 1.5mm pitch LED wall, along with multiple other digital displays throughout the venue. Sound reinforcement was provided by a Celto Acoustique FOH system for the DJ and a distributed system of satellite speakers in various zones.
LINCOLN HIGH SCHOOL
In 2024, Lincoln High School implemented a 120-zone IP paging solution to be retrofitted throughout the existing school. The installation had to be accomplished out of school hours and also be able to be re-installed into the new school that was programmed to be built on the same site in the near future. A SPON IP solution was chosen due to the flexibility it provided, along with the modular framework that the system used, which meant that the system would be future-proofed for many years to come.
PITAU ALLENVALE SCHOOL
NZAV provided a SPON IP paging solution for Pitau Allenvale School, which has some very special requirements. As the school is a special needs school, the paging solution had to be easy to use. Each zone had to be fully customisable regarding volume for local inputs and paging/bells announcements, and it also had to provide a video intercom security solution for access control at the main entry gate. All things that the SPON IP solution was able to achieve, resulting in the school being extremely happy with the outcome.
