CASE STUDYROCKET CENTRE

 
 


Overview

The Rocket Centre is a newly built motorcycle showroom situated just off the M65. It is the largest of its kind in the North West and the client wanted to make sure the ten thousand square foot showroom was a modern and impressive sales space.

The brief

The client required a multi room audio and visual distribution system that would be easy for all the staff to use, but which would create a massive wow factor for potential buyers in the showroom.

Budget

Approximately £25,000 to £50,000.

High Quality Audio and Video Distribution

The showroom is divided into several areas with each zone having its own individually controlled audio and video source or the option to play simultaneously with other zones.

In the hospitality suite a dedicated DVD and cinema amplifier enables Racing DVD’s to be played in 5.1 digital surround sound. The rear speakers are hidden in the ceiling so the only things on show are the impressive 50 inch plasma display and wall mounted speakers.

 
       
         
 

Music Hard Drive Provides Hours of Music

An iMerge S2000 3 zone 250GB hard drive recorder stores all of the showrooms CDs, which can be played over the 18 Linn Unik speakers distributed into the three audio/ video zones of the showroom. The vast number of Unik speakers produce a real buzz throughout the property and offers excellent quality audio.

The four screens are linked to a central control system which can send a combination of DVDs and SKY, either individually or simultaneously to each of the plasma displays.

Multi Plasma Displays

In the Go-Ped area the 42 inch plasma display was mounted to the back of the disabled access lift.

This part of the showroom has an individual music zone on the hard drive recorder and can also show Motocross and Go-Ped DVDs with the soundtrack playing over the column mounted linn speakers. A fourth display is mounted in the hand over area where the bikes are sold and handed over to the customer.

The Rocket Centre are extremely happy with their installation and all the staff are competent in operating the various audio and video systems.
