The LightViper Fiber Optic Audio System Scores At NFL's Super Bowl XLI, Pro Bowl Games & College Championships

Annapolis Junction, MD - FiberPlex, Inc., a professional audio fiber optic supplier to the sound production and systems contracting industry, announced that its LightViper fiber optic digital audio transport systems were chosen for the NFL's Super Bowl XLI and are being utilized in the NFL Pro Bowl. College football's BCS National Championship as well as early January's Fiesta and Sugar Bowl games also used the LightViper fiber optic audio systems.

Southern California-based Audio Specialties used the LightViper for both the Fiesta and Sugar Bowls and for a third consecutive year they deployed the system at the NFL's Super Bowl XLI in Miami, Florida. Audio Specialties also handled the BCS National Championship in Glendale, Arizona, January 8, 2007.

Custom Audio of Kaneohe, Hawaii (Oahu), will handle the entertainment stadium sound with a LightViper system for the NFL's Pro Bowl in Honolulu. Custom Audio's co-owner and technical specialist Jeff Kang commented on his company's decision to go fiber optic for the FOH and Monitor audio for the upcoming nationally televised Pro Bowl:

"It's never fun running a hulking 56-pair copper snake at a typical outdoor gig; the 500 foot run that has to be deployed in under 90 seconds for the Pro Bowl's half-time stage show makes running a copper snake out of the question. The main audio multi-channel run from the portable stage to the front-of-house position is handled with one fiber optic cable the diameter of a single mic cable."
