Opened in 2021, UBS Arena is a multi-purpose indoor arena located in Long Island, New York. Home to the NHL’s New York Islanders, UBS Arena has a capacity of 19,000 and hosts basketball games, concerts, corporate events and professional wrestling broadcasts in addition to Islanders’ home games. To provide world-class audio experiences for fans and attendees of a wide range of events, the newly constructed facility required a state-of-the-art arena audio solution.
The stadium’s main array system is in stereo, with eight clusters in left / right configuration around the scoreboard. There are individually powered delays allowing these to be tied into concert production for a completely time aligned system. In the bowl, the line array is filled out with VTX Series loudspeakers, and due to the growing size of scoreboards, the A12 was chosen as it met size, budget, and performance requirements.
Designed by consultant group Wrightson, Johnson, Haddon & Williams, Inc. and installed by integrators Diversified, the solution consists of over 950 JBL loudspeakers. Including the eight main bowl arrays the arena is filled with JBL VTX A12 speakers, and S28 subwoofers, and a variety of PD Series, AWC Series, VRX Series loudspeakers in balcony, concourse, back-of-house and delay positions.
The entire system is powered by Crown I-Tech Series and DCi Series amplifiers, with network control and signal processing provided by BSS Soundweb London devices.
