Bicycle Sound Systems (BSS) are growing in popularity. Anyone who has gone to a festival, seen or participated in a Critical Mass ride or watched the Skyride events will have seen a BSS in operation. The following is a description of what I have learnt over the years in the art of building sound systems Orlando attached to a bicycle.
Experience shows that the owner/manager of the nightclub needs to be proactive in dealing with the Architects, Acoustic Consultants and AV Consultants/Integrators so as to get the best nightclub system design for their venue. And it makes sense too, as investment in good systems alone can range anywhere between INR 50 lacs-1.5 crores depending on the size of the venue. Huge investment costs coupled with the time investment makes it very important to do it right the first time.
Is the music for your own enjoyment, other cyclists riding with you, or members of the public watching? Will you be riding the bike whilst the music is playing? (Probably answered in the first question) Would you like to play just your own music or have facilities, i. E. Mixing desk, microphones, to make the system more flexible? Would you wish to hire out the system at festivals and other events? Where would the system be stored when not in use? How would you get the system to the events?
Hopefully you can see the reason for asking these questions first. Once you know what the BSS is for, there are now a few more questions. What is the budget? Will you want to operate it in the rain? Would you want to use a trailer? Is it to be self-powered? I am going to presume that the BSS is designed to have the music playing whilst being ridden. I have seen 'static' systems but I feel the whole idea of a BSS is that we have mobile music. A top of the range BSS could run into thousands of pounds, especially if everything needed was bought new.
Why he is using a particular speaker, in terms of frequency response, SPL level, dispersion etc.? Why speakers are placed in a particular place? Are they covering the entire venue? Where are the acoustically sweet and dead spots located inside your venue? How he has defined different zones for your venue? Areas with loud music, peppy music, background music.
An individual has the less common option to purchase the system speaker units as separate components or as is more commonly done... A complete package. For those not versed in home theater technology the package deal is convenient and installation/setup is simple. The price ranges in quality and with each manufacturer.
Again, how loud depends on the use, if it is just yourself and a cyclist next to you, 50 - 100 watts could be enough. In my opinion, 100 watts would be the absolute minimum. If you want many people to hear you and you want a proper bass response, the wattage must increase. I believe 600 watts is somewhere around the maximum, for both volume and weight.
Seek answers to the questions above from your Architect, AV Integrator or AV consultant to get the best out of your Sound Systems.
