>>A completely new audio system has been installed at Gampel Pavilion for the first time in 30 years, meaning public address announcements, game day music and video board audio will have state-of-the-art clarity and crispness.
"Most of the system that was there was original to the building, which dates back to 1990," Feinglass said. "Some of the components were no longer functioning and the way that the game day experience has changed – in terms of the music and other things going on during breaks and timeouts – are much different now than when we were playing in 1990.
"There will be a noticeable difference in the clarity and quality of the sound. It's like having an old Sony Walkman with the earphones and replacing it with a Bose SoundLink. Like night and day."
Working with HB Communications, Bose and Ambient Sound, UConn installed a new Bose system at a cost of about $500,000, funded by the university.-<<
