Notes

2009-02-25 - Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. -Database Manager

2011-04-08 - Updated through on-line information from Kerwin Leader. -- This installation is undersized for its placement high in a center chamber over the chancel. The scaling of the pipework is small, typical of the "70 Series" design. The room into which it speaks is covered in acoustical tile rendering a very dry acoustic. Pew seats and backs are covered in fabric; the only live acoustic element in this sanctuary is hardwood floors with carpet runners in the aisles only. -Database Manager
