Danley has so successfully powered the sound experience for sporting venues around the globe that we have become synonymous with a quality in-game audio environment. This is one of the bedrocks on which we built our global reputation – designing and installing jaw-dropping sound systems for both indoor and outdoor sports venues of all sizes and acoustical challenges ranging from local high school stadiums and gymnasiums, to internationally-known arenas and stadiums.
And while we now count sports venues almost too numerous to list amongst our partners, we are always happy to add to our burgeoning list of satisfied customers. Our unique blend of proprietary technology, combined with our unparalleled understanding of what makes sound combines to provide an unforgettable experience for the fan. And our commitment to customer service means that we will provide the exact setup guaranteed to wow everyone that enters the venue.
And while you may think that sound is secondary to what is occurring on the field of play, we invite you to experience the Danley difference and see why so many have decided to make Danley a part of the game day experience.
“I think they can hear this music in the blimp,” said Chris Fowler, ESPN analyst, during the live broadcast of the University of Alabama and Louisiana State University (LSU) college football game on November 6, 2021. “They did not put in cheap speakers when they redid [the stadium].” Danley’s J7-95’s and BC218’s complete the lower bowl at Alabama’s Bryant-Denny Stadium.
Following installation of Wakulla High School’s new Danley system in 2023, a category 1 hurricane passed through the area.
“Wakulla High is less than 5 miles from the Florida coast,” said Hunt. “There was a good deal of damage in the area following the hurricane and we were asked to come out and check the system. There was no damage at all. Danley’s ability to build audio equipment that can withstand that kind of weather is very impressive.”
Estadio Corona, known by fans as the “El Templo del Desierto” (The Desert Temple) or “La Casa del Dolor Ajeno” (The House of Others’ Pain), is home of Santos Laguna, a Mexican professional soccer club based on Comarca Lagunera, Mexico. The stadium can host a standard capacity of 30,000.
The existing system, installed during the stadium’s initial build in 2009, had completed its lifecycle and a new sound system was needed. In reimagining the audio system, the facility directors sought an unobtrusive, high performance audio system with superior intelligibility that would also elevate the fan experience.
Nationwide Arena is home to the Columbus Blue Jackets of the National Hockey League and is host to most of the popular musical acts that travel through Ohio’s capital city. ESPN The Magazine wrote that Nationwide Arena is “the No. 2 stadium experience in professional sports” and the “Ultimate Sports Road Trip” deemed it the greatest arena in the NHL. We’d like to think the audio experience that we’ve helped create there has something to do with it.
“The big trick was that we couldn’t add any rigging points nor add significant weight to the rigging points that existed,” he explains. “Of course the reason you get holes in coverage is because the speaker is delivering the wrong pattern at the wrong location, but the direct and obvious solution of adding new locations wasn’t on the table.”
“Nevertheless, the coverage, efficiency, and relatively lightweight design of Danley loudspeakers allowed us to meet the facility’s goals within those stringent constraints.”
The J7-95 is one of the Danley products chosen as part of the recent upgrades at Bryant-Denny Stadium at the University of Alabama. The footprint, output, weight, and fidelity make the J7 the closest thing to a “utility” Jericho Horn that Danley has ever made, and thus its potential applications are incredibly diverse.
