Ontario’s premier 5,000-seat resort venue gets a K Series concert sound system upgrade, delivering consistent coverage and clarity across every seat<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

RAMA, Ontario, Canada \u2013 March 2026 \u2013<\/strong> Situated on the land of the Chippewas of Rama First Nation, roughly 90 minutes north of Toronto, Casino Rama Resort has been one of Ontario’s most storied entertainment destinations since opening its doors. At its heart is the Casino Rama Entertainment Centre (CREC), a 5,000-seat theater that has welcomed an exceptionally wide range of talent over nearly three decades: rock legends like Kiss, Alice Cooper, and Deep Purple; pop icons including Dolly Parton, Diana Ross, and Lionel Richie; comedians, Celtic ensembles, boxing cards, and symphony orchestras. It is a room that has to sound right for all of it. As the CREC approaches its 25th anniversary this June, that mandate has received a fitting upgrade: a new L-Acoustics K2<\/a> system, supplied by Solotech, replacing a V-DOSC rig that delivered close to a quarter century of virtually flawless performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Legacy That Set the Bar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

That the outgoing system needed to be replaced at all was more a matter of timing than failure. “The old system was an incredible slugger,” says Rob Howick, Venue Operations Assistant Manager. “V-DOSC went out the door with absolutely nothing wrong with it after all that time. We brought it in once a year just to rotate cabinets. As a legacy product, it was simply time for an upgrade.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perry Disera, A1 at CREC and the engineer who spearheaded the design and installation, underscores just how remarkable that track record was. “We were very fortunate not to require any manufacturer support throughout the lifetime of the system. V-DOSC handled everything that incoming tour engineers and we put into it\u2014withstanding the pounding of heavy metal acts while still sounding natural and sweet with symphonic performances. It was a remarkably worthwhile investment, all the way to the end.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That legacy, paradoxically, made the path forward straightforward. Staying within the L-Acoustics ecosystem meant a smooth transition, a familiar workflow for the in-house team, and confidence in the long-term investment. “I have a lot of deep respect for L-Acoustics products,” says Disera. “We’d had a long and amazing run with V-DOSC, and everybody was happy with it, so transitioning to K2 was a no-brainer.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Phased Approach to the K2 Concert Sound System Build<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Rather than a single-stage swap, the team structured the project to keep the venue operational throughout. “We split the project up to spread the capital purchasing,” Disera explains. “Phase one covered amplification, cabling, and background infrastructure\u2014initially powering the then-current V-DOSC and dV-DOSC speakers. In phase two, we brought in more amplification to support all the new K2 enclosures, added another complement of subs per side, and completed all the cabling.” Brand continuity within the L-Acoustics platform made this phased approach viable, minimizing disruption and capital outlay at each stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The complete system now features left and right main arrays of 16 K2 per side, with six additional K2 per side addressing the outer seating areas of the main floor. A pair of Kara II<\/a> handle fill coverage for the front-center section. The LF system is anchored by 12 KS28<\/a> subwoofers per side, flown in a cardioid configuration and positioned within 11 feet of the five-foot stage for maximum impact and low-frequency control. Six LA-RAK II AVB<\/a> touring racks, each loaded with three LA12X<\/a> amplified controllers and two LS10<\/a> Milan-AVB switches, were added to the Entertainment Centre’s existing 10 LA-RAK II to round out the infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

K2 Takes the Stage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The rig has immediately impressed both the in-house team and visiting professionals. “Touring engineers are consistently happy with how this system performs sonically, and there’s very little they need to do to make their shows sound great,” says Disera. “I feel we now have what is probably one of the best rigs for a theatre of this size in Canada, if not in North America.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the audience’s perspective, the impact has been equally striking. “The vocal clarity is night and day\u2014the crispness, the overall texture of the high end,” says Howick. “Our room has always been excellent for sound, but there were some coverage gaps in the outer seating areas that the K2 outfills have completely resolved. The consistency from the first row to the very back row is really stunning.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Disera is quick to credit the team that helped make it happen: audio specialists Ryan Smith and Mike Brandon. “They’ve been instrumental in the installation and operation since we started putting the system in. We all have a hand in what’s going on with the PA and monitoring systems onstage, and we’re all genuinely thrilled with L-Acoustics. With our previous system delivering almost 25 years of incredible service, we’re confident this new one will do us right for at least 25 more.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
