Leading marine audio manufacturer, JL Audio, offers a slightly different perspective as it’s almost entirely preoccupied with sound. JL Audio Marine Europe’s MD Paul Baker says, “The main challenge on a yacht is delivering high quality audio over a wide range of spaces, such as fore deck, rear deck or flybridge entertainment – all produce a different set of demands and needs. Often manufacturers specify inadequate audio systems as standard that are simply not able to reproduce

YOUR MEGAYACHT, YOU’LL NOT WANT OLD HAT AV
quality audio in the marine environment. At JL Audio, our marine division is used to working with clients and boat builders to specify systems that meet the requirements to deliver quality audio – in any location. We ensure the speakers are located correctly and are capable of moving the required volume of air. Our speakers are designed specifically for the testing ocean environment but without comprising the high quality sound you would expect from high-end home entertainment.”
So what do these industry titans have in store for us at Monaco Yacht Show 2017 and beyond? Sara Stimilli from 1998-established Videoworks says, “We’ll be presenting many innovative ideas at Monaco. One is a screen that can easily switch from transparent glass, say a window or a glass door, to a smart full HD TV - no need to hang heavy screens on walls or create a special room for the TV anymore. The second is an onboard internet connection manager. Thanks to an integrated system, Videoworks can wholly protect the internet navigation on board, especially important if the owner is working while navigating.
This same system can also manage the availability of the band, for example limiting crew bandwidth while the owner is onboard to increase the speed available to them. Sound-wise, Videoworks is presenting an innovative range of very powerful marine speakers made in aluminum – suitable for exterior and interior use.”
Videoworks is also embracing cloud computing, something consumers are using with great regularity on land. “For two years we’ve been focusing on remote customised server ‘farms’ which eliminate the need to install hardware on board, often hidden in furniture or in designated technical rooms. Instead, everything can be stored on cloud and managed by Videoworks, this grants more stability and scalability in terms of upgrading or changing the system.”
