Crown Palladium AV provider Encore Event Technologies finds a perfect match with L-Acoustics\u2019 new line source system<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

MELBOURNE, Australia<\/strong> \u2013 April 2024 \u2013 <\/strong>If an events center\u2019s prestige is measured by the events it hosts, then the Crown Palladium rides high in the upper echelon of Australian venues. Situated in the Crown Melbourne resort, casino, and entertainment complex, the Palladium is a 1500-seat capacity ballroom well known to the Australian public thanks to televised awards ceremonies for the Australian Football League (AFL) and Cricket Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Encore Event Technologies is Crown Palladium\u2019s in-house AV provider. It\u2019s a busy gig. With thousands of events staged a year, there\u2019s never a dull moment for the Encore AV team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L-Acoustics only publicly announced the L Series system to the market in mid-2023, and the Crown Palladium loudspeakers were some of the first off the production line. The brand-new PA went from \u2018thought bubble\u2019 to \u2018perfect fit\u2019 in only a few days. Encore Event Technologies\u2019 Director of Innovation & Technology, Procurement (APAC), Daniel Lourenco, explains: \u201cUpgrading the Palladium PA was a big decision and a large investment \u2014 so our selection required careful analysis of each brand and model and its capabilities. We went through a thorough process of assessment of our current inventory and needs within the Palladium. A large number of brands and models were carefully considered. We wanted the new PA to be a statement piece \u2013 to the industry, our team, and our clients.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daniel Lourenco and his team auditioned several PA alternatives. Toward the end of the tender process, he had three quotes on his desk for three high-quality loudspeaker systems, including an L-Acoustics Kara II system. At this point, the L Series product announcement hit the market, and Daniel was intrigued. \u201cI immediately contacted Jands [L-Acoustics\u2019 Australian distributor] to ask them about it: \u2018let\u2019s model the L Series in Soundvision to see how it might perform in the Crown Palladium\u2019. Not long after, I got the answer: \u2018It\u2019s the perfect fit for Crown Palladium Ballroom\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L-Acoustics introduced L Series after observing that most audience geometries\u2013and therefore array designs\u2013follow a similar trend, which led to the understanding, as Germain Simon, Director of Product Management, Loudspeakers at L-Acoustics, puts it: \u201cthat a fixed element with pre-defined progressive angles would provide incredible gains in quality, efficiency, and sustainability.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As such, L Series comprises two elements designed to work together or independently: L2 above and L2D below. One L2 or L2D element provides the same contour as four K2 elements in a format that is 46% smaller and 40% lighter. The audio benefits of L Series encompass industry-leading SPL per size, unparalleled consistency over the audience area, and improved rejection everywhere else. Accompanying the audio benefits, L Series revolutionises deployment with a smaller, lighter footprint that reduces truck space and requires fewer elements, cutting the number of actions needed to load in and out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crown Palladium has three main use cases or modes: full room, in-the-round, and split-room mode. Encore\u2019s design comprises an L2<\/a>\/L2D<\/a> pair permanently installed on either side of the proscenium, with a companion pair of L-Acoustics KS28<\/a> subwoofers. This system provides perfect coverage of the entire space through a combination of good audio design, the coverage flexibility afforded by the processing, and Panflex horizontal dispersion control. This almost entirely negates the need for additional fill \u2014 it\u2019s almost as if L-Acoustics had the Palladium in mind when designing the L Series. Four additional, freely deployable L2D<\/a> elements and four further KS28<\/a> subwoofers ensure the other two modes (in-the-round and split) are addressed rapidly and efficiently. The new LA7.16<\/a> high-resolution amplified controller drives the system, which supports L2<\/a> and L2D<\/a> with 16 high-power amplification and processing channels. LA12X<\/a> amplifiers power the KS28 subs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to meticulous preparation, the installation of the FOH system went without a hitch. It also demonstrated to Daniel and his team just how easy L Series is to deploy as compared to a standard multi-element line array system: \u201cThe hours of labour you save when you\u2019re on the installation and the de-rig is phenomenal\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crown Melbourne executives were consulted right the way through the procurement process, including in a trip to the InfoComm show in the US to hear the L Series in action. Buy-in from Crown was important, and the payoff has been obvious to all. Crown Melbourne\u2019s Executive General Manager of Food & Beverage, Enda Cunningham, explains: \u201cThe Palladium is Crown Melbourne\u2019s premier space, and our clients have the highest expectations of the Palladium experience \u2013 the service, the food and beverage, and, of course, the audiovisual offering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe new L-Acoustics L Series loudspeaker system is a big leap forward for Crown Palladium. The consistency of the sound and the coverage is exceptional \u2013 every seat in the house gets the same crystal-clear sound.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first hit out for the L Series system was a speaking tour date with ex-NFL great, Tom Brady. With 2200 seated, there was nothing but praise for the sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The impact the L Series system has had on the Encore Event Technologies business is profound. For starters, Encore\u2019s Daniel Lourenco can\u2019t foresee a situation where a visiting or touring act would want to bring in their own PA, which has obvious financial benefits for Encore and Crown. More than that, the L Series system provides the \u2018statement\u2019 Daniel was so keen to make: \u201cWe\u2019ve elevated our brand with the investment in this system, no question. Our biggest asset is our people \u2013 our team \u2014 and this PA has given our people even more reason to be proud to wear the Encore logo on their shirts. The best people working with the best gear get the best results and the happiest clients. That\u2019s a recipe for success, and this L Series PA plays an important role in that virtuous circle.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
