Capital City Church International—or 3Ci as it is better known—is one of the larger churches in Pretoria, and definitely one of the most technologically advanced. Stage Audio Works was the AV design and integration partner for 3Ci’s new building which was delivered in 2021—a highly successful collaboration that has resulted in an ongoing partnership. 3Ci has turned to Stage Audio Works once again, this time to equip a smaller 300-capacity hall—known as ‘the Cube’—with a PA system as part of the second phase of AV works. The project marks the sixth Plus Audio installation since the brand was launched eighteen months ago.
The first phase was the initial build—a huge development that features a state-of-the-art 2,500 capacity main auditorium for which Stage Audio Works designed and integrated a complete PA and control system based on d&b Y-Series and Yamaha consoles. At Stage Audio Works’ recommendation, 3Ci also engaged an acoustician to ensure the space was properly acoustically treated before the PA went in to ensure optimum results. The company also supplied a turnkey house lighting system as well as a building-wide background music and control system. However, the 3Ci campus isn’t just the auditorium; it also comprises a number of other spaces that require high quality AV systems, including the 300-capacity ‘Cube’ dedicated to activities for 3Ci’s younger generation.
