What did you do this summer?

...
Our summer was wonderful! We were in your back yard providing AV for your church neighbors!  Christmas is coming. Are your systems ready?


St. George Episcopal Church, York, ME

This New England church is perched on the coast of Southern Maine. The prominent worship feature of the Parish Choir and Mega Choir means sound quality and audio system flexibility is essential. 

Holy Redeemer Parish, 
West New York, NJ

The glorious St. Mary's Church located just across the Hudson River form Manhattan wanted to reach more parishioners more of the time. They asked Power sound of New England to design a Video System. Video Cameras are in place to record Services for display on flat-screen monitors in overflow area. And a Live Video Streaming system was put in place. Now Masses are available to everyone via a link on the parish website.Live Streams can be viewed here: St. Mary's Church Live Streaming


Unitarian Memorial Church, 
Fair Haven, MA

Located on the southernmost coast of Massachusetts, the eleven bells in its tower sing out a recognized tune.The ornate architecture speaks of the beauty of this church. But inside it causes the well-known acoustical challenges faced by most churches.
A customized audio design and sound system installation project have brought the aesthetic and acoustics into total harmony.


Follen Community Church, 
Lexington, MA

This classic New England church is located in the Boston suburbs. An older church sound system was replaced by a professional audio system featuring a Pro Bose® speaker system. Monitor speakers in the choir loft and small-space speakers in the foyer offer sound to areas beyond the pews. New Bose Panaray speakers, designed for worship spaces project clear, intelligible sound throughout the sanctuary.


St. Pete Chanel Parish, 
Van Buren, ME

Located in northern Maine close to the border of Canada, St. Bruno-St. Remi Church- This historic church needed a sound system renovation. Masses are held in English and in French languages and sound clarity must be ideal for both. Professional Bose loudspeakers are column-mounted and the system is designed to project clear speech and music throughout the large nave.

St. Mary Church,
Nantucket Island

The island church has trusted PSNE with sound system design & installation and more recently a video projection project. This summer they chose to add Live Video Streaming of their Masses. No one on the island or back on the mainland will ever need miss the worship. Their stream is programmed to be "live" during Masses. Watch it weekdays at 7:30 am or during weekend Masses here on their website.

A Massachusetts Church Sound Renovation


At St Anthony of Padua Church in Shirley Massachusetts everything sounds much clearer!

Fr. Derosier came to us to design a church sound system that would offer clear, consistent audio throughout the sanctuary. Also important to the parish was the architectural "fit" of the system. We worked together to be sure our design would meet the desires for the interior aesthetics of the church space. 
As part of the audio design our crew hand painted all speakers to match the columns to which we would be affixing them. During the sound system installation we also ran raceways where needed to cover any wiring. The result? We are pleased to showcase some photos from the project and to share the sentiments of the the pastor about its outcome...



“The new sound system performs exactly as promised. The installation was very well done and your crew paid careful attention to ensuring its components complemented our church architecture. Having viewed your work at a nearby parish, and listened to the superb quality of the sound reproduction, we were sure we had made the right decision in choosing Power Sound of New England. We were not disappointed."
-Rev. Edmond D. Derosier, St. Anthony of Padua, Shirley, MA



BOSE Panaray speakers mounted on columns face the pews. The multiple speaker drivers in each 4" wide speakers offers even coverage.




The transepts are given sound coverage by smaller complimentary BOSE speakers facing the side pews. By choosing a combination of loudspeakers, designed for worship spaces, for the design, it enabled our crew to install and program the system to accurately reinforce sound in all areas of the sanctuary.

Beautiful from every angle.
