CMI
recently delivered a state-of-the-art executive day coach
to a CEO and his family. The coach possesses many top of
the line amenities including one of the most extensive
audio/visual systems ever created at CMI.
The
comprehensive system consists of six TVs,
two audio A/V receivers (including iPod docking); two PS3/Blueray
units, one
Kaleidescape whole house entertainment server,
Rhapsody online music service and a DirecTV in-motion satellite
system with two satellite receivers. An Extron audio/video
switcher enables individual passengers the capability to listen
or view different media on different devices at the same time. A
5-channel stereo system and 10 subwoofer are also located in
each of the front and rear lounge areas and a WiFi enabled
router with 3 watt amplifier provides internet capability
throughout the coach. CAT5 outlets are located throughout the
coach for flexibility and to provide an additional signal boost
over a standard wireless laptop card.
This 2009 MCI J4500 was custom painted using
a CMI original design.
The motor coach also features many
other top of the line amenities.
The entrance of the bus grabs your attention
immediately with its custom accented door panel, illuminated LED
stairwell lighting and hydrographic-finished dashboard. Both
driver area seats are custom built and the co-pilot seat
includes an air operated slide out step platform. Also
incorporated into the drivers area is a complete sound system
with AM/FM/CD/MP3/GPS and back up camera monitoring system.
The front lounge features
three individual interactive seating areas and three TVs
one 32 and two 26 monitors.
The first area includes
four spruced up barrel chairs taken from the another coach.
Between the chairs are two custom built tables with storage. The second area includes two custom sofas across from
each other. One is a U shaped couch with a removable Avonite
table.
The third
interactive area consists of a custom built dinette across
from another custom sofa. The sofa can be moved towards the
dinette area via electric slides bringing the guests closer
together for conversation and/or games.
Following the interactive areas,
is the galley complete with a built in microwave, built-in
coffee maker and full size refrigerator. The galley includes a
single bowl, under mounted stainless steel sink with custom
faucet fixtures and an Avonite sink cover. Rear of the galley
area (curbside) is the lavatory. The lavatory has custom built
cabinetry with a vessel style sink and custom faucet fixtures.
The final area is the rear lounge. It
features a full custom "U" shaped seating area with
a motorized slide that, with a touch of a button,
changes into a bed. This area also includes a 40
and a 32 LCD monitor.
The audio/visual system also features outdoor components
including an audio speaker system and a TV monitor located
in the under floor bay. This TV easily rotates to store
against the wall of the bay when not in use.
Located in the hallway to the rear of the
coach is a storage area and the main AV cabinet. All
the components of this high-end system are easily controlled
via the touch screen remote control.
