National Air and Space Museum
The Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum upgraded and optimized its visitors’ listening experience at 23 galleries, brand-new exhibits, and presentation halls. The project included the installation of a variety of K-array components.
Established in 1946, the National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution (NASM), in Washington, D.C., has been undergoing a variety of renovations.
NASM’s transformation includes the reimagining of 23 galleries, brand-new exhibits, and updated presentation halls. To accurately transform the user experience, the NASM chose to install a custom K-array sound system that would create a deeply immersive and sonically impressive environment – a truly “out of this world” experience for visitors to the exhibit.
To achieve all required audio needs and maintain museum aesthetics, K-array provided:
Speakers: 74x Python-KP52 I, 3x Anakonda-KAN200+8, 4x Kobra-KK52 I, 2x Vyper-KV52 I, 4x Kayman-KY52
Subwoofers: 7x Truffle-KTR26, and 2x Rumble-KU44 I
Amplifiers: 83x Kommander-KA02, 2x Kommander-KA14, 2x Kommander-KA34, and 1x Kommander-KA104
