• Modernized the Capital One Arena with the installation of full-range, self-powered adaptive line array elements – complete with custom flown equipment racks – and subwoofer components.
• Built custom equipment racks to fly behind each cluster for I/O, power distribution, and network switches and ran new fiber from the mix position.
• Installed an additional twenty-four full-range loudspeakers to cover the arena’s upper bowl’s upper-quarter, complete with delays to ensure coherent signal arrival times relative to the main system.
• Added eight more self-powered fill speakers to cover the court area from the scoreboard.
With the start of the NBA and NCAA basketball seasons in just weeks looming, Clair Global Integration (CGI) was charged with fully-modernizing Capital One Arena’s sound system from top to bottom.
Our team pulled out every stop and relied on a well-executed combined effort to install a state-of-the-art sound reinforcement system within the tight deadline. It worked, the result being the daily delivery of professional sound to crowds of fans who expect the best entertainment when they come out. From the action on the court to the interactive vocal participation from their seats, everyone feels the energy that a modern system brings.

“Clair was a terrific partner throughout our sound system replacement at Capital One Arena. They were organized, timely, available to troubleshoot at any twist or turn, and provided constant communication throughout the process.
