Scores, a sports bar in Boston, has unveiled its digital transformation in partnership with Northeast Integrator and Snap One, according to a press release.

Before being purchased by new owners, the site held The Fours Restaurant & Sports Bar, founded in 1976.

The site renovation and digital transformation project included installation of 32 digital displays on the walls, along with smart systems from integrator Rexx Home Systems (which provided integration services for the renovation) and Snap One, a supplier of smart home technology. Displays range in size from 55-inches to 98-inches, and they are mounted on Strong mounts from Snap One, with sound provided by fifty commercial-grade speakers and subwoofers installed in the ceiling.

"There isn't a bad seat in the house," Jason Record, owner at Rexx Home Systems, said in the release. "No matter where you sit, you can see multiple games."

AV control systems included Snap One's Control4 automation platform, Binary MoIP system, Triad electronics and Control4 entertainment and automation controllers; the system can be controlled via the Control4 smartphone app or a wall-mounted 10-inch Control4 touchscreen.

"It's so much more efficient than walking throughout the bar with an armload of remote controls," Tyler Smith, general manager at Scores, said of the AV control systems in the release. "We can get everything up and running just the way we like it in seconds."

The project also included installation of Araknis Wi-Fi wireless access points, which are connected via a Pakedge networking system from Snap One, along with integration of six thermostats and HVAC control with the smart systems.

"No ordinary networking solution would be able to handle the heavy bandwidth demands of the many connected systems and support simultaneous Wi-Fi users," Record said in the release. "The robustness of Snap One's suite of products and the technical expertise of their service and support team ensured the proper transmission throughput, speed, and coverage was achieved."
