Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium - Memphis, TN.: Built in 1965, LBMS went through a major renovation in 1987. But until the recent addition of twelve Danley TH-115 horn-loaded subwoofers, the audio system had been in place and exposed to the elements since 1981!
The stadium hired Steven Durr Designs to come up with an effective, but low-cost, solution to its low-end woes. Durr included a request that the winning contractor actually build horn-loaded bass cabinets because their inherent efficiency would maximize “bang-for-buck” with limited city dollars. “But in a pre-bid meeting, none of the contractors wanted to build cabinets,” explained Pierce. “We searched around and found that Danley was making truly weatherproof, horn-loaded subwoofers and that people were saying a lot of nice things about them. We arranged a demo, and that sealed the deal.”
