The historic concert hall, built in 1913 and paneled in cherry wood inlaid with ebony, can accommodate 1,160 people and specializes in classical music and spoken word performances through to blues and rock music. When the time came to upgrade its sound system, the major requirements were low weight, wide and controlled coverage and low visual impact.
Soundhouse installed a left/right system of eight KIVA and two KILO low frequency extension units per side, driven by LA8 amplified controllers. "This system provides an appropriate sound coverage while remaining almost invisible in this historic environment," says Soundhouse's Christoph zur Loye. "It can be configured for floor and/or balcony coverage depending on the seating situation and number of visitors."
