Fiserv Forum

Opened in August 2018, Fiserv Forum is home to the NBA’s Milwaukee Bucks and the Marquette Golden Eagles. The arena serves as a recreation hub for the community as well.

Bass Trap Challenges Resolved

Fortunately, our riggers were up to a challenge. 

The vertical Lapendary Panels that are used to create a bass trap could not be installed per usual due to roof design restrictions at Fiserv Forum. We ultimately installed the panels about 20' back from the inside edge of the halo, which was complex and difficult. Installers had to climb in and around an immense amount of obstructions with safety and efficiency top of mind. 

In addition, the back sides of the vertical Lapendary Panels serve as a wall — visible from the concourse — so a neat and clean installation was especially desirable.

When a complex project requires innovative solutions, our experts provide them.
