Super Bowl XXXIV
Indoor Dome Stadium. ABC-HDTV broadcast . What A Game! After
experimenting at the NY Giants vs. Dallas Football Game and with some
experience under our belts, we set up the hard-wired Holophone® on a pole at
the 50-Yard line at the Georgia Dome.
Facing the action, about 20 feet up from the field which
left about 10 feet extra height on the pole after clearing the retaining wall.
The cable run was long and boy was it ever loud in that stadium. We had to run
out in the middle of the game to make some adjustments to the gain, but the
holophone really worked out well for this broadcast by adding a feeling to the
noise and a sense of space that sent shivers down the back in the broadcast
truck and I assume, in peoples homes. A great Experience. We learned a lot about
extreme noise levels, long cable runs and any other thing that might go wrong
in a broadcast. Invaluabley useful info. And a lot of fun!
