Flensburg Town Hall .
Flensburg Town Hall, located on the edge of the city center, was designed by architect Carl-Friedrich Fischer. In addition to the seat of the Lord Mayor and the Council Assembly, the 17 floors of the high-rise building also house large parts of the city administration and the extensive city archives as well as numerous meeting rooms.
PROTONES has refitted and extensively modernized the media technology in the Council Chamber, Civic Hall, Europa Room and Paul Ziegler Room. In addition to the redesign of the sound system, the conference and interpreting technology in particular was renewed. The video technology was also given a contemporary update.
Optimum sound reinforcement in a compact form
PROTONES, in collaboration with NEXO's engineering support team, has proven that even relatively small installations of NEXO ID Series loudspeakers can provide superior performance and sound coverage. Fewer speakers simplify the installation process and help keep projects on budget.
In the "Paul Ziegler Room", two of the new ID84 column speakers were used, which are characterized by their particularly long range and variably adjustable vertical HF dispersion. A similar configuration is supplemented in the "Bürgersaal" by compact ID14 and ID24 loudspeakers to provide optimum sound coverage for the back rows. The "Europaraum" is covered with just three ID24 loudspeakers set at 60° and four ID14 loudspeakers. In the octagonal "Council Chamber" there is a central cluster of two ID24 loudspeakers at 120° and one at 90°, which together provide 280° coverage in an almost circular room, supplemented by four ID24 loudspeakers at the sides, set at 90°. NEXO's DTD controller and 4-channel DTDAMPS are used for amplification and processing.
The ID Series speakers are characterized by a very consistent sound with excellent speech intelligibility. Even coverage is crucial in applications such as this, as both the public and elected representatives need to hear every question and answer clearly. A good sound system is central to the democratic process, and PROTONES has been instrumental in making this a reality in Flensburg
