Repair 52200 CLIN 0001 Repair Costs funded in this Project, (Arch., Struct., MEP Systems)

Equipment N/A CLIN 0002 Funded separately as part of this Project, requires separate 3080 Funds, See Equipment List

E. WIRELESS FREQUENCIES CHANGES – Subsequent to the completion of this project’s design phase in March 2018, it has been discovered that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has made changes to wireless frequencies that will affect the equipment to be provided as a part of this project.

Background - The FCC auctioned spectrum that had been licensed to broadcast television stations operating on TV Channels 38 – 51. The results of the auction, completed in April 2017, will affect the availability of spectrum for wireless microphone operation on the 600 MHz frequencies that correspond to these TV channels, specifically the 614 – 698 MHz frequencies.

2019 Updated Excerpt from FCC Website – The amount of TV band spectrum available for wireless microphones has decreased as a result of the incentive auction, which was completed on April 13, 2017. Specifically, most (but not all) of the spectrum on TV channels 38-51 (614-698 MHz), has been repurposed for use by wireless services and will not continue to be available for wireless microphone use. Wireless microphones that operate in the 600 MHz service band (the 617-652 MHz and 663-698 MHz frequencies) will be required to cease operation by no later than July 13, 2020, and may be required to cease operation sooner if they could cause interference to new wireless licensees that commence operations on their licensed spectrum in the 600 MHz service band. Reference FCC 15-140 for more information. Spectrum will continue to be available for wireless microphone use on TV channels 2-36 (TV band frequencies that fall below 608 MHz), on portions of the 600 MHz guard band (the 614-616 MHz frequencies), and the 600 MHz duplex gap (the 653-663 MHz frequencies), and in various other spectrum bands outside of the TV bands. Reference FCC 15- 110, and FCC 15-99 for more information. FCC Website is:

e. Please provide a product or a spec for the aluminum edge strip that would be an acceptable match to existing.

NON-SABER CONSTRUCTION SOW

Last Updated 20 February 2020

RESPONSE – Carpet requirements include: (1) Provide new carpet to match existing carpet. (2) Carpet required to match existing is Collins & Aikman, #05849, Tandus Infinity Moonstone (Base Standard). (3) Carpet stock by owner is often available. However, Contractor shall provide new carpet to replace the removed section of carpet. (4) New carpet is to be broadloom. (5) Edge Strip Requirements, in lieu of installing new aisle lighting/carpet edging, Contractor shall carefully detach existing combined lighting/edging from the concrete substrate, protect from damage, and reinstall same aisle lighting/carpet edging in the original location. Manufacturer Reference: One possible manufacturer that provides similar lighting/edging products is Tempo, website location:

https://tempollc.com/products/guardian-step-aisle-system/.

G. RFI-007 – There are two versions of the DSP in the Local Rack for the Soundcraft Vi5000, 48kHz and 96kHz. Which version is desired?

RESPONSE – For the DSP in the Local Rack for the Soundcraft Vi5000, Theater personnel preference is 48kHz if available. The 96kHz is acceptable if 48kHz is not available. The board typically comes provided such that the theater can choose which to use.

H. RFI-008 – Drawings Sheet TA-503 shows Connector Outputs 1-4 on the BSS BLUDIGIALCARDOUT on the DSP (BSS BLU806) connecting to four amplifiers.

Connector 1 on the card is capable of connecting to two amplifiers but Connector 2 is only capable of connecting to (2) Clock Input cables. Thus, only two amplifiers can connect to one card. This results in the requirement for twice the number of output cards and a BSS BLU-326DA Network Signal Processor for the additional cards. Please advise.

RESPONSE – Provide BSS expander with additional output cards as recommended.

I. RFI-009 – “Attach_07_Proposed_Equipment_List” shows 20 Surround Speakers, 7 for each side and 6 for the rear, which concurs with Drawings Sheets TA-101 and TA-102. Drawing A-200 shows 8 surround speakers on each side. Which is correct? If 8 surround speakers are used, an additional amplifier and DSP card will be required.

RESPONSE – The requirements on Drawings TA-101 and TA-102 are correct.

J. RFI-010 - “Attach_07_Proposed_Equipment_List” shows a rigging frame, JBL VTX VT4889-AF, for the Stage Lip Fill Speakers. Was this frame, but with a different model, intended for the VTX V20 array speakers? Please advise.

RESPONSE – The six (6) array frames listed in 274116 are intended for the main L/C/R arrays and the cinema L/C/R arrays. The part number in the 274116 equipment list is not correct. See Drawings TA-512 through TA-514 for correct array frame part numbers.

K. RFI-011 – “Front Fill Speakers” are listed in Excel spreadsheet Line 37 in “Attach_07_Proposed_Equipment_List” without a manufacturer or model

NON-SABER CONSTRUCTION SOW

Last Updated 20 February 2020 number. What is the model and manufacturer? Note: a similar name, “Stage Lip Fill Speakers”, are specified on Excel spreadsheet Line 19 in the Equipment List.

RESPONSE – The “Stage lip fill speakers” and “front fill speakers” are the same item which was inadvertently listed twice in 274116.

L. RFI-012 – How does one (1) Crown DCi 4x1250 4-channel amplifier specified for the “Front Fill Speakers” in Item 6 above connect to (10) “Front Fill Speakers” and/or (20) “MONITOR” speaker receptacles shown on Drawing Sheet TA-508?

See “Attach_07_Proposed_Equipment_List” Excel Line Items 37 and 38. There is no one-line drawing. An additional equipment rack will be required if more amplifiers are desired, e.g. (4) Crown DCi 4x1250, to provide a connection to all the speaker “Monitor” receptacles. Please advise.

RESPONSE – There are six (6) front fill speakers and eight (8) connection points. Parallel each amplifier channel to two (2) receptacles in inside/outside pairs, providing two (2) connection points for future use. Monitor outputs are line level with XLR connectors for use with powered monitor loudspeakers – see Drawing TA-502 for wiring.

M. RFI-013 – Drawing Sheet TA-502 shows a JBL VTX V20 for the Control Booths.

Since this is the large loudspeaker used in the suspended line arrays on the left and right of stage, it is logically a drawing error and should be a small monitor speaker. If correct, what is the manufacturer and model number?

RESPONSE – This is an error on Drawing TA-502. Provide JBL Control 5 compact monitor loudspeakers with mounts.

N. RFI-014 – Are chain hoists required for the Center Array even though the array is stationary? 230 VAC receptacles for chain hoists are shown for the Center speaker on Sheet TA-110.

RESPONSE – Regarding chain hoists for the Center Array, theater personnel need the chain hoists for maintenance purposes.

O. RFI-015 – Is the wireless intercom system shown on Drawing Sheet TA-509 owner furnished? If not, what is the manufacturer and model number on the wireless intercom base station, cards, transceivers, and accessories? This information is now shown in “Attach_07_Proposed_Equipment_List” nor in the drawings. “Attach_02_Equipment_List_Cut_Sheet” shows multiple possibilities for the Clearcom wireless intercom.

RESPONSE – For the wireless intercom system shown on Drawing Sheet TA- 509, the wireless intercom was inadvertently not included on the Equipment List.

Provide a Clear-Com Freespeak II system consisting of base station, eight (8) beltpacks, single ear headsets (six (6) in addition to those listed), double ear headsets (two (2) in addition to those listed), two (2) battery chargers, and eight
