Boynton replaced the large speakers in the church with three small Bose 502A speakers and a 502B sub. And we can run a program level of 98db without taking away from the aesthetics of the room. Good Sound for All Just a few short years ago, it seemed that the only churches that made it into the electronic age were megachurches and a few pioneers in broadcasting.
