"Do what you say you are going to do and make it simple and reliable"
Drawing from a pool of well qualified and experienced personnel, Professional Audio Solutions allocate a project manager and senior engineer to supervise each new project, from conception through to completion. Our philosophy of installing modular systems that are easy to service and maintain, together with many years of excellent client relations, has allowed us to expand our operations to encompass the security and data disciplines.
Once a brief is agreed with the client, the assigned team are responsible for the production of suitable drawings, schematics and detailed cabinet construction plans. In house design meetings are held to allow a flow of ideas and a pooling of experience.
Although we try to use up to the minute technological solutions, all new products are thoroughly tested before being integrated into our designs, thus eliminating any risk of the unproven technology breaking down under normal operating conditions. Where standard products are unavailable for a particular application, we will design and engineer a solution in our workshops. Not only does this include custom hardware; using Crestron controls and interfaces we also provide software for many of the bespoke graphics that populate each touch screen control panel or monitor display page, therefore personalising every system to the client’s wishes.
In many cases we are given an empty space to create a cinema room. In these situations we are able to supply all the required interior furnishings including seating, blinds and lighting , as well as the sound and screen systems.
A typical installation starts with the cabling, which is monitored by the associate project manager and engineer to ensure it is correctly fitted and is not damaged in the process of installing other services within the same ducts. Once the wiring is complete an engineer checks every cable in the system, attaching the relevant terminations, identifying each cable and ensuring it matches the circuit diagrams provided by the design team.
At the same time, back at our headquarters, engineers assemble each component of the system into a housing rack and create a wiring harness to connect with the cables on site. The racked system is then tested as if it were installed, so that when the engineers take the assembled cabinet to site to install it, the system hardware has already been thoroughly proven, significantly reducing the chances of a malfunction when connected up.
Finally a full check is performed upon all of the installed systems, measurements are taken to ensure the system falls within the designed specifications, and any changes in the final drawings are noted and amended. The system is handed over to the client to use and enjoy for many years to come.
