»In the field: One Letterman, The Presidio

Eight PHA-4 arrays hidden in a wood-slat boardroom ceiling at One Letterman, The Presidio

Invisible speakers. Uniform coverage.

Eight PHA-4 arrays disappear between the wood ceiling slats of this executive boardroom in San Francisco’s Presidio, each driven through a Pragmatic PAT-15 70V/4Ω transformer. The arrays beam straight down onto the seating — almost no energy reaches the glass walls, so reflections stay minimal and every chair hears the same level, with no hotspots. A price-performance combination we’ll put up against any speaker for this class of room — line array or conventional.

»PHA line arrays on video walls

Make your video wall sound as good as it looks

A 53-second look at why line arrays belong on video walls: conventional speakers spray sound everywhere, while a vertical PHA-5125 column focuses it across the room — intelligible from the front row to 10 m back, with no ceiling slap. Corporate boardroom, hospitality lobby and home-theater layouts from the application white paper.
