Audiovisual Engineering & Systems Integration
Malsery AV
Every element, working as one.
A well-designed audiovisual system makes complex technology feel simple.
Sound is clear. Images are precise. Information reaches the right place. And the systems behind it all work together.
Malsery AV brings together our professional audiovisual engineering, system design and technical integration capabilities.
We design and specify audiovisual environments for businesses, institutions and specialised facilities. Our work encompasses professional sound, visualisation, conferencing, media distribution, control systems and the infrastructure that connects them.
From an individual meeting space to complex facilities with multiple interconnected systems, we provide the engineering direction, technical specifications and deployment oversight needed to translate requirements into working environments.
Our approach begins with the purpose of the space and extends to the details that determine how the system performs.
Audiovisual Consulting & System Design
Designed around the environment.
Every space has its own requirements.
Its architecture, dimensions, intended activities and operating conditions influence the technology needed to make it work.
We develop audiovisual system designs that account for these relationships from the outset.
Our work combines requirements analysis, technical assessment, engineering and equipment specification to establish a clear foundation for implementation.
Requirements & Feasibility
We assess the intended function of a space, its existing infrastructure and the technical requirements of the proposed system.
Our work includes site surveys, stakeholder consultations, infrastructure assessments, feasibility studies and the evaluation of suitable technologies.
We consider room geometry, viewing conditions, acoustic characteristics, connectivity, power infrastructure and the way people are expected to interact with the system.
The objective is to establish the technical and operational conditions that will guide design decisions.
System Architecture & Engineering
We develop the technical architecture defining how audiovisual components connect, exchange signals and operate together.
Our capabilities include:
- System architectureAudio, video, control, network and supporting infrastructure design.
- Technical specificationsEquipment selection, performance requirements and component specifications.
- Engineering documentationSignal-flow diagrams, schematic drawings, equipment schedules and connection diagrams.
- Physical infrastructure planningRack layouts, equipment placement, cable routes, power distribution and cooling considerations.
- Integration planningEquipment compatibility, signal interfaces, communication protocols and network requirements.
- Performance requirementsDefinition of measurable criteria for sound, image, connectivity, control and system reliability.
- Bills of materialsEquipment schedules, quantities, accessories and supporting infrastructure components.
We develop each design with consideration for performance, interoperability, maintainability and the expected operating life of the system.
Technology Evaluation & Selection
The performance of an audiovisual system depends on the suitability of the technologies selected and how they operate together.
We evaluate equipment and system architectures against the intended application, technical requirements, manufacturer specifications and installation conditions.
Our work considers compatibility, functionality, performance, product support, infrastructure dependencies and opportunities for future expansion.
We assess the complete system rather than treating individual equipment specifications as independent decisions.
Professional Audio & Acoustic Engineering
Sound, engineered for the space.
The quality of an audio system depends on more than the loudspeakers or amplifiers installed.
Room acoustics, loudspeaker positioning, microphone behaviour, signal processing and system configuration all influence the result.
We design and specify professional audio systems for speech reinforcement, music reproduction, conferencing, public address and distributed sound environments.
Sound Reinforcement Systems
We develop sound reinforcement designs for auditoriums, conference facilities, educational institutions, houses of worship, performance venues and other spaces requiring controlled audio coverage.
Our engineering considers loudspeaker dispersion, frequency response, sound pressure levels, speech intelligibility, system headroom and the intended listening areas.
Depending on the environment, designs may incorporate point-source loudspeakers, line arrays, column speakers, subwoofers, ceiling speakers and distributed loudspeaker systems.
We establish amplification, signal processing and supporting infrastructure requirements as part of the complete design.
Acoustic Assessment & Modelling
The acoustic characteristics of a room influence how clearly sound can be heard.
We assess reverberation, background noise, reflections, room geometry and the relationship between sound sources and listening positions.
Our work includes acoustic requirements analysis, electroacoustic modelling, loudspeaker coverage studies and recommendations for acoustic treatment where appropriate.
We use these considerations to inform loudspeaker selection, positioning, sound coverage and system performance requirements.
Audio Processing & System Architecture
Professional audio environments require carefully defined signal paths and processing arrangements.
We specify audio mixers, digital signal processors (DSPs), audio matrices, amplifiers, microphone systems and related infrastructure.
Our designs account for gain structure, equalisation, signal routing, dynamics processing, delay alignment, feedback management and system control.
For conferencing and speech applications, we consider acoustic echo cancellation, automatic microphone mixing and noise reduction.
Multi-Zone & Distributed Audio
Larger facilities often require sound to be distributed across several spaces, each with different requirements.
We design multi-zone audio systems that allow sound sources to be routed and controlled independently.
Applications include auditoriums, meeting rooms, reception areas, corridors, overflow spaces, educational facilities and public environments.
Our designs establish audio zoning, source selection, amplification, signal transport, local volume control and centralised management.
We consider how individual zones operate independently and how they function together when the wider system is in use.
Visualisation & Display Engineering
Information, presented with precision.
Visual systems shape how people communicate, collaborate and interpret information.
Their effectiveness depends on the relationship between the displayed image, the viewing environment and the people who need to see it.
We design professional visualisation systems for meeting rooms, auditoriums, operational centres, educational facilities and large-format presentation environments.
Professional Display Systems
We specify commercial displays, interactive flat panels, large-format LCD systems and other professional display technologies.
Our design considerations include screen dimensions, resolution, brightness, contrast, viewing distance, viewing angles, mounting arrangements and environmental conditions.
We also define the connectivity, signal processing and control infrastructure required to integrate displays with the wider audiovisual environment.
LED & LCD Video Walls
Video walls provide large visual surfaces for presenting information, monitoring operations and supporting collaborative work.
We develop system architectures and technical specifications for direct-view LED, tiled LCD and other suitable large-format visualisation technologies.

Projection provides an adaptable approach to visual presentation across spaces with different dimensions and viewing requirements.
We develop designs for professional projection systems, including lecture theatres, auditoriums, conference facilities and specialised presentation environments.
Our engineering considers projector brightness, projection technology, throw ratios, lens selection, screen characteristics, image geometry and ambient light.
Where required, designs may incorporate multiple projectors, geometric correction, edge blending and coordinated image processing.
Visual Signal Processing
Complex display installations often require several information sources to be processed and presented across different screens.
We specify video processors, scalers, matrix switchers, presentation switchers, display controllers and related image-processing infrastructure.
Our work considers resolution management, signal compatibility, source selection, image composition and synchronisation.
The objective is to establish reliable, flexible control over how information reaches each display.
Conferencing & Collaboration Systems
Technology that makes communication natural.
A meeting room should bring people and ideas together.
Its technology should support that purpose without becoming an obstacle.
We design integrated conferencing and collaboration environments that bring audio, video, connectivity and control into a coherent system.

We specify wireless presentation and collaboration systems suited to the intended environment.
Our work considers device compatibility, network configuration, access controls, content sharing and integration with existing conferencing infrastructure.
Room Control & Automation
Meeting spaces often contain equipment that must operate together to support different activities.
We design control arrangements that bring these functions into a common interface.
These may include touch panels, wall controllers, programmable processors and automated operating modes.
Our designs establish the required control of displays, audio levels, cameras, sources and conferencing functions.
We focus on making the system straightforward for everyday users while retaining appropriate technical control.
Control Rooms & Operational Visualisation
The right information. In the right place.
Some environments depend on continuous visibility of operational information.
Control rooms, command centres and monitoring facilities bring together data, video and systems information to support supervision and decision-making.
We develop audiovisual architectures for environments where information must be presented clearly, consistently and reliably.

We design visualisation and collaboration systems for control rooms, command centres and operational monitoring facilities.
Our work covers large-format display systems, operator workstations, source management, video processing, information distribution and control infrastructure.
We consider the relationship between display layout, viewing positions, operational workflows and the information sources being presented.
Network & Security Operations Centres
Network operations centres (NOCs) and security operations centres (SOCs) require coordinated visibility into multiple systems.
We develop visualisation architectures that bring together monitoring dashboards, surveillance feeds, operational applications and incident information.
Our designs consider source routing, multi-window display management, operator access, network requirements and system resilience.
Video Wall Management
Large visualisation environments require more than a display surface.
We specify the processing and control infrastructure needed to manage the information presented.
This includes video wall controllers, source encoders and decoders, display management platforms, operator interfaces and supporting network infrastructure.
We consider how multiple sources can be displayed, rearranged, shared and managed according to operational requirements.
Reliability & Redundancy
Operational environments may require audiovisual infrastructure capable of supporting continuous use.
We consider equipment redundancy, power protection, network resilience, system monitoring and maintenance arrangements.
The design reflects the operational consequences of equipment failure and the availability requirements established for the facility.
Audiovisual Distribution & Control
Connected by design.
Complex audiovisual environments depend on the precise movement of signals between sources, processors, displays, loudspeakers and control systems.
The challenge is not simply connecting equipment. It is ensuring that information reaches its destination with the required performance, timing and control.
We design audiovisual distribution and control architectures for individual rooms, connected facilities and larger building environments.
Audio & Video Distribution
We develop signal distribution designs using suitable switching, routing, extension and processing technologies.
Our specifications may incorporate audio matrices, video matrix switchers, distribution amplifiers, signal converters, extenders, encoders and decoders.
We consider transmission distance, bandwidth, signal quality, latency, synchronisation and compatibility between equipment.
Networked Audiovisual Systems
Professional audiovisual technology increasingly relies on IP networks for media transport, control and monitoring.
We design audio-over-IP and video-over-IP architectures, defining the network resources and device arrangements required.
Our work covers network topology, endpoint requirements, media transport, multicast traffic, quality of service, segmentation and system management.
Where appropriate, we consider established technologies such as Dante, AES67, HDBaseT and compatible AV-over-IP platforms.
We coordinate audiovisual requirements with the underlying network architecture to establish dependable connectivity and performance.
Control Systems Engineering
Control systems bring the operation of multiple audiovisual components into a common environment.
We develop control strategies, functional requirements and technical specifications for programmable processors, touch panels, wall controllers and connected devices.
Our designs define user interactions, control sequences, system presets, device communication and operating modes.
We consider how the system will be used by people with different levels of technical familiarity.
Centralised Management & Monitoring
Facilities containing several audiovisual systems may require centralised visibility and administration.
We design management architectures that support equipment monitoring, configuration, diagnostics and selected remote-control functions.
These may include device management platforms, monitoring interfaces and network-connected control infrastructure.
We consider how centralised management can simplify maintenance and provide a more consistent operating experience across multiple spaces.
Streaming & Recording Infrastructure
Extending communication beyond the room.
Organisations increasingly require audiovisual environments that can support live transmission, recording and distribution beyond the physical space.
These functions depend on the relationship between cameras, audio systems, video processing, encoding, networks and storage.
We design and specify the technical infrastructure that enables audiovisual streaming and recording.

We specify infrastructure for recording meetings, presentations, training sessions, institutional activities and other audiovisual sources.
Our designs may include recording appliances, video capture systems, audio recording interfaces, storage infrastructure and signal routing equipment.
We consider recording quality, storage capacity, file formats and integration with existing systems.
Multi-Source & Camera Infrastructure
Facilities with multiple cameras or media sources require coordinated signal management.
We establish camera coverage requirements, signal paths, switching arrangements, monitoring infrastructure and the equipment necessary to support the intended outputs.
Where recording, streaming and in-room presentation operate simultaneously, we design the relationships between these functions.
Our responsibility is to engineer the systems that enable transmission and recording, rather than undertake the creative or editorial production of the content itself.
Digital Signage & Information Systems
Information across connected spaces.
Digital signage allows organisations to present information across workplaces, commercial facilities and public environments.
An effective system must deliver the intended content clearly while remaining manageable across the locations and screens it serves.
We develop digital signage architectures connecting professional displays, media players, content management platforms and network infrastructure.
Digital Signage System Design
We specify displays, media players, controllers, mounting systems and connectivity according to the intended application.

We design signage networks for facilities with multiple displays or installations distributed across different locations.
Our work covers network architecture, device management, content distribution requirements and centralised administration.
We consider how individual screens can operate independently while remaining part of a coordinated system.
Information System Integration
Digital signage may need to display information from business applications, visitor systems, monitoring platforms and other authorised sources.
We specify the integration requirements that allow information to move between these systems and the display infrastructure.
Our focus remains on the technical environment that presents and distributes content.
Technical Procurement & Deployment Oversight
Designed with precision. Delivered with control.
A successful audiovisual project depends on how faithfully the system is implemented against its intended design.
Equipment placement, cabling, configuration and integration all influence the performance of the completed environment.
We provide technical procurement support, implementation coordination and deployment oversight to help ensure audiovisual systems are delivered according to the agreed specifications.
Technical Specifications & Procurement
We develop equipment specifications, bills of materials, technical schedules and supporting procurement documentation.
We evaluate proposed equipment against functional requirements, manufacturer specifications, compatibility and lifecycle considerations.
Where alternatives are proposed, we assess their technical suitability and implications for the wider system.

We review test results, coordinate corrective actions and assess whether the completed system meets its intended performance requirements.
Documentation & Technical Handover
A completed system should be documented accurately and understood by those responsible for its operation.
We coordinate the preparation and review of as-built drawings, equipment schedules, signal diagrams, configuration records, operating instructions and maintenance documentation.
We also oversee technical handover, user orientation and the transfer of relevant system information.
System Lifecycle & Technical Advisory
Designed for more than installation.
Audiovisual technology evolves. Equipment ages, software platforms change and the needs of facilities develop over time.
We provide technical evaluation and advisory services to help organisations maintain and improve their audiovisual environments.
System Audits & Technical Assessments
We assess existing audiovisual installations to understand their condition, capabilities and limitations.
Our reviews examine equipment compatibility, system architecture, configuration, performance, maintainability and manufacturer support.
