USA - Located on the New Hampshire shoreline within an hour's drive of Boston, Mass, the historic Hampton Beach Casino, built in 1899, remains a leading attraction in the New England resort area, while the adjacent Casino Ballroom, added in 1927, has received a major redesign of its audio and lighting systems, including the addition of a new loudspeaker system based on Meyer Sound's Mica compact high-power curvilinear array loudspeaker.

The main system is comprised of two arrays of eight Mica cabinets each, augmented by a pair of MSL-4 horn-loaded long-throw loudspeakers for side-fill. Six 700-HP ultrahigh-power subwoofers provide low end. Ten MJF-212 high-power stage monitors and a 600-HP compact high-power subwoofer comprise the primary stage monitoring system, with a pair of CQ-2 narrow coverage main loudspeakers flown as side-fill monitors.

A Galileo loudspeaker management system provides system processing and drive, while the RMS remote monitoring system, installed on a Windows-based computer at the FOH position, provides continual data on the status of each loudspeaker for house audio engineer John Coretto or a guest engineer. Audio industry veteran Bill Blaine and his company, WHB Concert Production, handled the installation.
