Manassas, VA––Unveiled this year, the new Edward L. Kelly Leadership Center was built for Virginia’s Prince William school system at a cost of $37.5 million and feature the very latest in A/V technology.
Named for Edward Kelly, the county’s longest-running superintendent who presided over the system for 18 years, the new facility is 150,000 square feet and will house about 500 employees.
The scope of improvements is impressive. For example, school board meetings had been held in a cramped former military barracks. Now they’re held in a 300 seat meeting room with state-of-the-art video screens and audio systems.
Other features of the center include: a small museum representing the history of the school system in the main lobby; computer stations for people to fill out employment applications; a School Board meeting room that can be divided, like a hotel conference more

New York, NY––Slated for their official U.S. introduction at the AES Show, the new SX-Series reference monitors feature completely redesigned transducers, drivers and electronics to provide the most transparent reproduction possible.
All ADAM SX-Series monitors feature the new X-ART tweeter, which provides 4dB higher efficiency, increased maximum SPL of 3dB, and an expanded frequency response of up to 50 kHz.
Other new components include an ultra-low distortion broadband A/B amplifier with 1MHz internal bandwidth and new Hexacone™ woofers with more linear excursion to optimize efficiency and accuracy.
The SX-Series consists of six different models ranging from small nearfield monitors (S1X, S2X) to larger midfield monitors (S3X, S4X). The S4X and S3X models are available in vertical (S4X-V/S3X-V) and horizontal (S4X-H/S3X-H) versions.
The S4X-H midfield monitor combines the new X-ART tweeter with a 5“ HexaCone midrange driver and two redeveloped 9“ HexaCone woofers. The more

Fairfield NJ––Middle Atlantic Products is now offering its signature SignalSafe™ cords on all power products at no extra charge to customers. This exclusive cable technology is designed to reduce radiated AC magnetic fields in AV systems that induce noise in signal wiring.
SignalSafe Power Cords feature the industry’s tightest AC power cord conductor twist rate and are manufactured with heavy 14 gauge conductors. This results in an AC magnetic field strength five times less than that of standard power cords, and significantly less than loose wires in Steel EMT Conduit.
Signal cables, which are highly sensitive to magnetically induced noise, can be conveniently cable-managed with only a 1/2″ separation from system power with full confidence that signal integrity will be preserved.
The full suite of Middle Atlantic’s power products now ships with SignalSafe technology, including the IsoCenter™ Rackmount Isolation Transformer, more
Fairfield, NJ––Middle Atlantic Products, an innovative partner to the specification community, is the first rack manufacturer to provide BIM (Building Information Modeling) feature-rich 3D models of its racks, cabinets and enclosures in AutoDesk’s Revit platform.
Revit drawings help to identify problems resulting from objects occupying the same physical space, which in turn saves significant time and money during construction. Because of this, Revit drawings are rapidly becoming the new standard demanded by architects and consultants.
The Revit family files (.rfa) offered by Middle Atlantic Products have been optimized for use in Revit, and offer convenient features, including small file sizes and the ability to select the appropriate level of detail.
Besides Revit files, Middle Atlantic Products offers a comprehensive suite of system design resources and tools, including RackTools, a free layout and specification package that also exports to AutoCAD; Comprehensive CAD Technical specification drawings; more
