Design build is the most popular method used to date to get a sound system
quote. Several contractors are called to submit a bid for a new system, a
site visit is made, and a proposal is mailed or presented. The key problem for you the customer is, you don't know what your new
system is going to sound like until it's installed. Just because a
contractor has installed a system that sounds good to you down the street is
no guarantee that your system is going to sound as good unless your church
is identical brick for brick, ministry for ministry, as the other church.
The best promises of the salesperson, the best name brand of equipment, or
the lowest price will make up for a poor performing system that is plagued
with feedback, poor gain, thin sound, and uneven coverage once you own it.
How can you know for sure that you've made the very best choice possible
from several sound bids?
Compare the benefits of owning a Cathedral Sound system . . .
1) Cathedral Sound has 30 years of experience working with the
church market. We understand what you want and need in a sound system for
church ministry. A well spoken pastor or powerful vocalist can use almost
any sound system and sound OK. But, picking up the voices of children,
drama, and choir is not easy. It takes the right engineering skills to make
clear at every seat these types of ministries. It just won't happen by
installing some sound equipment, regardless of the name brand or price. We
understand what the music director wants to hear in all types of
denominations. Whether he or she wants to hear the warmth of a violin string
or feel the depth of contemporary praise and worship, we have the experience
to make it happen.
2) "Acoustically engineered" has become the latest click phrase
among sound system salespeople. But, what does it mean? What it means to
most is a software package designed to help predict the expected performance
of a system design. While this is a valuable tool, it is none the less just
a tool. Cathedral Sound has experience with acoustical design tools from the
early 1970's, longer than some companies have been in business. It takes
time to learn how to use design tools. We have the proper tools and years of
experience. We've been there, done that. Go with experience.
3) Your sound operator is a key part of your sound system. You
can't drive a car if you don't know how. We have a training program that
comes with most system purchases and can be purchased separately that helps
your operators get the most out of your sound system.
4) Cathedral Premium Systems are not only guaranteed for parts and labor
for a full year, we also guarantee the coverage and clarity of your
system. It's the best warranty in the industry.
5) We take pride in your installation. We do our best to make the
sound system blend into your sanctuary and take care of your property. We
want it to look as good as it sounds.
6) We are committed to your success instead of the cheapest price.
You get what you pay for. Sound systems are no different. When you get our
quote you can have complete confidence that we quoted what you really need
to get the job done. Anyone can sell on price. But, no one can top our
performance dollar for dollar. Doesn't your ministry deserve the best? We
think so too.
How to get a Quote
Begin by downloading our Sound System Planning Guide. Everything
you need to help you organize your purchase is there plus some other
information that you may find useful. Be prepared to
specify a budget amount you are
interested in investing in a sound system. You may not know exactly what
your budget figure is but it is a big help for us to have at least a ball
park range.
If your church is within a 3 hour drive time of Fayetteville, NC your
estimate will be at no charge providing that we can meet with your key
personnel that will be using the system so we can ask questions, and those
that will be making the purchase decision. We will present your new system
in person and may bring equipment to demonstrate our system design and why
it's the best solution.
If you want a site visit, take acoustic measurements, look over your
requirements, and mail you a quote, there will be a charge for this service.
