BATANGAS, Philippines – August 2025<\/strong> — The newly opened Batangas Province Events Center (BPEC) has become the first live sporting venue in the Philippines to feature an L-Acoustics professional sound system installation. Unveiled by Governor Dodo Mandanas in March 2025 as the province’s “new crown jewel,” the state-of-the-art facility represents a significant milestone in modernizing spectator sports facilities across the Philippines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breaking new ground: The state-of-the-art Batangas Province Events Center showcases the first-ever L-Acoustics professional sound system installation in a Philippine sports venue<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A New Symbol of Provincial Progress<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located within the Provincial Sports Complex in Batangas City, the 6,000-capacity BPEC multi-purpose indoor arena serves as a symbol of the province’s strength, progress, and unity. The venue features retractable spectator seating, movable stage configurations, high-performance sports flooring, fully air-conditioned facilities, VIP lounges, and a central LED display system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designed to host basketball games, medium-sized live concerts, conferences, and community events, the BPEC required an audio system that could adapt seamlessly between sporting events and live entertainment programming\u2014delivering pristine clarity during in-game announcements while providing the dynamic range vital for high-energy music playback during basketball breaks and memorable live concert experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Selecting L-Acoustics A Series for Multi-Purpose Flexibility<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

L-Acoustics Certified Provider Distributor Metatech Solutions and Systems Corporation was recommended to the venue’s Project Architect and General Contractor by a local partner. To compete for the project, Meta-Tech system engineers leveraged L-Acoustics Soundvision 3D-modelling software to create detailed acoustic predictions and visualizations. This advanced modelling capability allowed them to demonstrate precisely how the proposed system would deliver optimal coverage across all seating configurations and event types, providing venue management with clear, data-driven proof of the design’s performance before installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“In multi-purpose venues like the BPEC, every system component must serve dual functions without compromising performance,” explains  Mr. Wayne Gutor, Meta-Tech\u2019s Vice President for Engineering and Technical Services Division, who designed and installed the systems. “A flexible and versatile system would deliver the vital sonic impact of both sporting event operations and entertainment programming success.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta-Tech proposed the L-Acoustics A Series as the optimal solution based on project budget requirements and venue size specifications. The final design was validated by L-Acoustics APAC Application Engineers before presentation to the Project Architect and General Contractor. The comprehensive Soundvision presentation, featuring precise SPL simulations and coverage mapping, gave Meta-Tech a decisive advantage in the competitive selection process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overcoming Acoustic Challenges with Soundvision Design<\/strong>
The system design process needed to address unique challenges of the indoor arena environment. Tubular air conditioning ducts required speaker rigging points to be positioned higher to achieve optimal SPL and direct sound for spectator seats. Additionally, highly reflective surfaces throughout the space necessitated acoustic treatment installation on the arena’s walls and ceiling before the sound system design could be finalized. Meta-Tech system engineers directed sound energy to audience areas rather than reflective surfaces, significantly improving intelligibility and impact.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Advanced Multi-Configuration System for Sporting Events and Entertainment<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The BPEC employs a sophisticated dual-system configuration addressing both sporting events and live entertainment requirements. Four hangs of one KS21i<\/a> subwoofers and two L-Acoustics A15i Focus<\/a> and two A15i Wide<\/a> down are flown at the four corners of the arena’s centrally positioned LED scoreboard, providing consistent 360\u00b0 coverage for basketball games and sporting events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The venue’s FOH system for concerts and live events utilizes flown trusses that can be lowered during entertainment programming and raised to allow unobstructed viewing during sporting events. The FOH system consists of left\/right hangs of three A15i Focus and one A15i Wide down per side, with a centre cluster hang of six KS21i subwoofers for low-end reinforcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The L-Acoustics system infrastructure utilizes AES67 protocol with analogue redundancy, ensuring reliable performance during critical sporting events and live entertainment. The system integrates the facility’s main PA for sporting events with the concert performance FOH systems, creating a unified audio environment throughout the complex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BPEC’s L-Acoustics A Series installation establishes a new gold standard for sports venue audio quality across the Philippines<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Setting New Standards for Venue Audio in the Philippines<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Soundvision proved invaluable in achieving even sound coverage throughout the entire area,” explains Mr. Gutor of Meta-Tech. “The software helped us solve the venue’s acoustic challenges by directing sound energy to audience areas rather than reflective surfaces, significantly improving intelligibility and impact.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The L-Acoustics sound system installation now positions the BPEC as a benchmark facility in the Philippines, setting new standards for spectator sports venue audio quality and establishing a world-class reference point for event facilities nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“When you’re creating the Philippines’ first major sports venue with L-Acoustics technology, the technical excellence we delivered was essential in establishing new performance standards,” concludes Mr. Gutor of Meta-Tech. “The L-Acoustics A Series ensures that every announcement, every musical moment, and every crowd experience reaches audiences with the clarity and impact that widely anticipated Filipino sporting and entertainment events deserve.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
