Commercial Audio Design
Zone planning, equipment selection and signal flow for commercial audio systems — before equipment goes in.
LVWave designs commercial audio systems built from controllers, audio players and sources, amplifiers and speakers. This covers zoned background and foreground audio for spaces like hotels, restaurants and offices — not video, signage or presentation systems.
Zone & Coverage Planning
Design starts with how the space is actually used — which areas need independent audio zones, and what speaker coverage each zone needs for even, appropriate sound.
Equipment Selection Considerations
Design accounts for the controllers, sources, amplifiers and speakers a project needs based on zone count, coverage area, and how the system will be operated day to day.
System Architecture & Signal Flow
Design maps out how audio moves through the system — from sources and controllers through amplification to each zone's speakers — so the system is straightforward to install, use and service.
Cabling & Connectivity Coordination
Speaker and control wiring is low-voltage cabling like any other system LVWave designs. This work is coordinated with structured cabling design so pathway and cable planning accounts for the audio system alongside data and other low-voltage cabling.
New Construction & Renovation
For new construction, zones and cable pathways can be planned before walls close. For renovations, design works around existing construction and infrastructure.
Scope
This covers controllers, audio players and sources, amplifiers, speakers, zones, and associated low-voltage connectivity.
