Avid fans of professional golf know the Sea Pines Resort’s Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head, South Carolina, as the home, since 1969, of the annual RBC Heritage Presented by Boeing. This year’s event, which took place April 13-19, was the first to enjoy access to the newly rebuilt Harbour Town Golf Links Clubhouse.
The new facility offers conference facilities, remote-controlled adjustable lighting, the 4,600-square-foot Champions Ballroom, and technologically advanced audio/visual equipment – the centerpiece of which is an extensive new background music system consisting of components from Bose Professional.
This new sound system utilizes 98 Bose FreeSpace DS 16F loudspeakers throughout the facility, as well as nine FreeSpace 51 environmental speakers, powered by four Bose PowerMatch PM8250 configurable multichannel amplifiers and controlled via two Bose ControlSpace ESP-00 system controllers.
This sound system matches the Sea Pines Resort’s and Harbour Town Golf Links’ reputation, which sees it consistently ranked among top courses by Golf Digest, Golfweek and Travel & Leisure.
“We selected Bose due to the high quality of their products,” said Steve Birdwell, president at the Sea Pines Resort. “The music and sound quality is consistent with the world-class caliber of the finishes throughout the new Harbour Town Clubhouse.”
Cliff McMackin, director of Resort Development for the Sea Pines Resort, noted that the PGA TOUR professionals and the guests at the resort — whose hotel lodging experience has earned four stars from the Forbes Travel Guide — have “the highest needs and expectations, and we made all of our product choices in order to meet those requirements,” he explains.
“The Bose reputation and name recognition, made the choice of sound system an easy one. We can’t say enough about how well the Bose sound system has met and exceeded everyone’s expectations.”
