Did you miss the Wawa Welcome America celebration this past weekend? So did we, sort of – for years, we’ve looked forward to the Pops concert in front of Independence Hall. Due to COVID-19 health and safety restrictions, the traditional large gathering was not to be this year, but, with Clear Sound’s help, the Philly Pops found a way to hold their concert anyway. The Pops performed in an empty Met Philadelphia, with the strings separated from one another and wearing face masks while the brass and woodwinds played behind acrylic panels.

The graduation ceremony at St. Joseph’s University required Clear Sound’s expertise in two areas: the specific challenges posed by commencement events, and the difficulties of providing intelligible sound inside a tent. Our team decided to use a distributed loudspeaker system throughout the 100' x 300' ft. tent, which we divided into targeted zones for optimal control and clarity. The ceremony was an unqualified success: every graduate’s name was heard by their loved ones.
Swarthmore College’s beautiful baseball field was a charming place to watch a game, with just one problem: nobody could hear the game announcements. Clear Sound installed a system that provided the ideal combination of outdoor ruggedness with ease-of-use. Four Community speakers offer excellent speech intelligibility over the bleachers, giving the field thorough, well-balanced coverage.
When Vista Peru, Old City’s much-anticipated new eatery, needed a high-end audio system, they turned to Clear Sound. On Zagat’s list of Philadelphia’s 19 Most Anticipated Restaurant Openings of 2018, this family-owned restaurant offers upscale Peruvian food in the first-level dining room, including lunch, dinner, and late-night fare.
The Griffin Complex at Gwynedd Mercy University is home to the Men’s and Women’s Basketball and Volleyball teams. The Complex hosted exciting competitions and distinguished graduations, but the attendees had a hard time hearing what was happening. Like many gymnasiums, the Griffin Complex is extremely reverberant, making intelligibility, or the ability to make out what someone is saying, a distinct problem.
When Hatboro-Horsham School District needed to upgrade the audio system in the high school’s auditorium, they chose Clear Sound to install the new system. Milt Kunz, theater director and project coordinator, said the installation team’s “greatest skills were the ability to listen to our conversations to pick out the priorities and needs of our house.
The American Cancer Society is a leader in the fight against cancer, and Clear Sound is proud to support their Relay for Life at the University of Pennsylvania. Our donated equipment helped raise funds for research, patient care services, education and prevention of cancer. In addition, this event demonstrates that fundraising can be fun, too!
With a history dating back to ancient China, the Philadelphia International Dragon Boat Festival meets every fall for a day of fun and competition on the Schuylkill River. Teams of paddlers, each with a steersperson and drummer, race for glory in this regional event.
