Turbosound installations

Queen's Road Baptist Church, UK

Venue: Queen's Road Baptist Church
Location: Wimbledon, London
Venue-type: House of Worship
Loudspeaker system:
3 x TQ-440SP

B+H Installations specified three TQ-440SP three-way loudspeaker enclosures as the central focus of the sound rreinforcement installation carried out at Wimbledon's Queen's Road Baptist Church. As one of the leading churches of the charismatic movement, Queen's Road Baptist had found that their existing system, after ten years of use, had become inadequate for the range of events being held at the church. Attracting a very young and vibrant congregation, whilst also featuring a worship band comprised of up to eight pieces, there was an increasing need for a system with more power to create the punchy sound environment that the church felt it was missing.

John Ellis of B+H specified the system that features the three TQ-440SPs in a central cluster. He adds, "We wanted to use a state of the art self-powered system, the beauty being that there are no amp racks or other external equipment, so it's perfect for minimising the space requirement and importantly in a church situation, minimises the "fiddle" factor. All the signal processing such as equalisation, compression, crossover, time alignment is done within the box, no sticky fingers can change that! The The throw and dispersion of the TQ-440SP is incredibly good, reaching every part of the church with clear, coherent and powerful sound and without the need of delays or fills." A sub-bass cabinet on a separate send from the desk lifts the bottom end when required, but reports back from the church's sound team say that due to the full range capabilities of the Turbosound cabinets, only very little bass needs to be added.

The church's committee approached B+H to install a complete new sound reinforcement system following a training day provided by the company for the sound operators at Queen's Road Baptist. Ellis commented, "The QLight series are easy to install, easy to fly, and punchy but smooth enough to be used for articulate speech. The 6.5" headroom is extremely good for conveying the voice while also reproducing the band well. The TQ-440SP is a good full-range box, quick to install with no inconvenient cable runs."
