Lea Professional Partners With Cci Solutions | Gloria De Cristo

With a congregation size between 50 to several hundred, the church staff recognized the limitations of their outdated AV system. Seeking to enhance speech intelligibility and music reproduction for their parishioners, they turned to LEA Professional’s Connect Series amplifiers and CCI Solutions to get the job done.

THE SPEC

🏢 Venue: Gloria De Cristo | Yuma, Arizona

👷‍♂️ Integrators: CCI Solutions

🎶 Audio Spaces: Fellowship Hall and Nave

🦈 Product Used: Connect Series 352 (1) & Connect Series 1504 (1)

THE VENUE

While a large portion of Gloria de Cristo’s congregation is made up of local churchgoers, there is also a community of virtual attendees from around the world. Located near Marine Corps Air Station Yuma (MCAS Yuma), the church often welcomes members from the military base in person and virtually. Virtual attendees can stream church services from anywhere in the world to feel connected to the church while deployed.

THE INSTALL

To make this happen, Gloria de Cristo staff reached out to CCI Solutions to design and integrate a sound system to fit their needs. CCI Solutions is on a mission to provide the right amount of technology so churches can achieve their vision and deliver their message, without distractions. 

“The church came to me intending to incorporate a sound system that was a couple of decades old and then solve the reverberation issues preventing clear audio,” said CCI Systems Consultant Mike Robertson. “With a strong military audience, we wanted to ensure everyone could stay connected with the church via web streams that were easy to hear and understand. It was important to offer that accessibility to all.”

Robertson assessed Gloria de Cristo’s needs and specified one Connect Series 1504 in the nave and one Connect Series 352 in the fellowship hall. The CS1504 is a 4-channel amplifier with 1,500 watts per channel, while the CS352 is a 2-channel amplifier with 350 watts per channel. As part of the Network Connect Series, the world’s first Internet of Things- (IoT) enabled professional-grade amplifiers, both are well-suited for installations requiring high flexibility, making them the perfect choice for Gloria de Cristo’s widespread congregation.

“One of the coolest things about LEA Professional’s technology is the all-in-one capabilities,” added Robertson. “We were able to put everything on the CS1504 in the nave and everything on the CS352 in the fellowship hall. Connect Series is easy to integrate and operate, which can be a game changer for churches that don’t have tech support on site.”

THE CONCLUSION

CCI has been working with LEA Professional technology for a while, utilizing the amplifiers regularly in PA system installations. Robertson notes LEA’s flexibility and capabilities among the top reasons for standardizing on their technology.

“Ensuring the best possible audio experience for every guest is paramount,” said Scott Robins, VP of Sales at LEA Professional. “Our Connect Series amplifiers have elevated the church’s AV offerings, so every member can focus on the service instead of the outdated audio system.”

A special thanks to the CCI Solutions team for choosing our amps for this incredible installation. We’re thrilled at the opportunity to collaborate with you and ensure unparalleled sound quality for many years ahead.
