Sound System

The main sound system consists of multiple clusters of speaker systems which are combined to give even coverage throughout the arena. Six main clusters are in an elliptical pattern above the ice and each cluster consists of ten JBL Variable Line Array elements. There are also six floor fill JBL speakers which are located in the scoreboard. The main system is powered by 88 QSC PL3 series amplifiers.
