Prepared for the 2024 Campaign: Seattle Seahawks Boost Gear with Cutting-Edge Tech Enhancements
Lumen Field, home to the Seattle Seahawks, has reached a new milestone in its history with the Seahawks Fanovation Project. This ambitious project, marking the stadium's 20th anniversary, has set a new standard for fan engagement and audio quality, elevating Lumen Field to compete with the best stadiums built in recent years.
At the heart of this transformation is a state-of-the-art sound system, meticulously designed and installed by Diversified. The system, featuring over 400 d&b audiotechnik loudspeakers, including SL-Series, XSLi-SUB, KSL, and XSL loudspeakers, represents one of the biggest and best enhancements to Lumen Field to date.
The new sound system is renowned for its controlled, uniform coverage, improved voice intelligibility, and impactful low-frequency sound. Diversified's deployment reflects their innovative AV engineering approach, focusing on scalable, standardized, and high-quality configurations that elevate client satisfaction and service consistency.
One of the key technologies employed in the system is d&b audiotechnik's ArrayProcessing. This technology compensates for weather conditions at Lumen Field, adjusting for warm summers and cold, rainy winters, and balances audio levels between the upper deck and lower bowl seating. It also redirects sound away from unoccupied upper bowl seating during events that only occur in the lower bowl, ensuring an optimal auditory experience for all attendees.
The new sound system demonstrated its superiority during an A/B demo conducted during the installation. Lumen Field can now boast broadcast-quality sound across the venue, thanks to Diversified's technological prowess and commitment to delivering the best fan experience.
The Seahawks Fanovation Project is not just about sound, though. It also includes new bowl lighting, LED elements, Amazon "Just Walk Out" stores, suite renovations, and refreshed premium lounges and club-level spaces. This comprehensive overhaul positions Lumen Field as a leader in stadium innovation, setting a high bar for fan engagement and comfort.
In conclusion, Diversified's upgrade at Lumen Field has delivered a major audio system enhancement using d&b audiotechnik technology, resulting in superior broadcast-quality sound across the venue. This project is a testament to Diversified’s advanced and standardized engineering practices that support scalability and high client satisfaction, aligning with their leadership’s “Field Engineering for the Future” initiative. The Seahawks' partnership with Diversified for this installation has undoubtedly revolutionized the fan experience at Lumen Field.
