Audio Visual & Video Systems

Whether you are looking to upgrade an existing audio system or design and install from new, we can help. Churches can be some of the most acoustically challenging buildings and audio systems need careful design to ensure that both the coverage and speech/music reproduction is to a high standard. Our highly skilled audio engineers design and install PA and speaker systems that are tried, tested and proven in church environments. We offer a wide range of church sound system solutions, including products from JBL/Harman and HK Audio with the option for speakers colour matched to your buildings decor.

To complement the main sound system, we also supply and install Analog and Digital Mixing Desks (and associated digital stage boxes), wired and wireless microphones and induction loop systems, both traditional and infra-red.

Church Hearing Loop systems, commonly also known as induction loops, are often a vital part of a church service. The church environment is often not well suited for speech reproduction, due to the presence of hard surfaces such as stone and glass which cause considerable reverberation or ‘echo’. Even for those with good hearing it can be challenging to hear the service and for listeners that suffer from hearing loss, it can be extremely difficult. We are frequently approached to make improvements to existing systems which are poorly designed making the situation even worse.

NAV can install a church hearing loop system as part of a new installation or simply integrate one with your existing church audio system. For sensitive installation locations such as listed buildings or where it’s not possible to easily fix a loop cable, we also offer a range of infra-red assistive listening systems to support hearing impaired worshippers.

NAV have a 50 year history of successfully installing audio visual installations. Our AV installation engineers are experts who will recommend the most appropriate equipment to meet your needs, whilst being sympathetic to your budget and carefully considering the aesthetic impact. We offer a range of audio visual products including Projectors & Screens, Displays/TV’s, Audio & PA Systems (including wired & wireless microphones), induction loops and AV furniture suitable for the church environment.

Onsite health & safety is of prime importance to us. Our engineers hold a range of accreditations and certification including: CHAS, Safe Contractor, SSTS, PASMA, IPAF, ECS, Asbestos Awareness Training and Police NPPV Level 3 clearance, so you can be assured that we will always work safe and legally whilst on your premises. We are also fully insured for all our church installation work.

If you’re in need of emergency repairs, we offer an engineer callout service to help rectify the problem and get you up and running as soon as possible, regardless of who the original supplier was. It’s not our policy to try to sell you new equipment if it’s simply not needed, so we’ll attempt to repair the product before discussing replacement AV equipment.

If your current system requires a simple upgrade or rewire, such as the addition of an induction loop or a wireless microphone we’ll seamlessly integrate this new equipment into your existing church installation.

Our AV servicing & maintenance solutions offer peace of mind for your new or existing audio visual installation. We offer a varied range of fully-transparent service & maintenance agreements to keep your AV installation operating to its full potential.
