To keep up with customer demand, it has recently added a substantial K2 system to its existing inventory of K Series, which already includes Kara II and Kiva II.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The decision to invest was made a few years ago, following a slew of requests for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.l-acoustics.com\/products\/k2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">K2<\/a>, which resulted in the company hiring in systems for the busy summer season. \u201cWith a large stock of Kara II and Kiva II already in our inventory, K2 was a natural next step for us,\u201d says the company\u2019s owner, Paul King. \u201cIt didn\u2019t make any sense to continue hiring, so we decided to acquire a system that will allow us to meet the demand for years to come.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The order for 24 cabinets of K2 was initially placed in Feb 2020. \u201cIn hindsight, of course, that wasn\u2019t the best time to invest in anything, given the first lockdown was only a couple of weeks later,\u201d King notes. \u201cL-Acoustics was very understanding of the situation, and we were able to postpone the order, which was a welcome relief!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With business returning to normal levels, the order was revived and delivered at the end of May this year. Along with a quantity of Kara II, King Sound Reinforcement\u2019s first K2 outing was a sub-hire to Delta Live to supplement their huge L-Acoustics requirement for the Queen\u2019s Platinum Jubilee Concert in front of London\u2019s Buckingham Palace in early June.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of June, it was deployed during Bristol Sounds, a six-day series of concerts with 20,000 attendees in Central Bristol, supporting headliners Noel Gallagher\u2019s High Flying Birds, The War on Drugs, Elbow, Paolo Nutini, Jungle, and First Aid Kit. From there, K2 moved on to the main stage at Bristol Pride, a 25,000-capacity event headlined by Carly Rae Jepson. As the sole technical supplier to the event, King Sound employed L-Acoustics inventory around the five performance areas, with close to 100 cabinets being deployed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve been inundated with cross hire requests from other L-Acoustics rental network companies, so when we\u2019re not using it ourselves, there\u2019s a ready-made income stream from cross rental,\u201d concludes King. \u201cAll in all, investing in K2 has proven to be a very wise decision.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-0 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5907-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"24818\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.l-acoustics.com\/?attachment_id=24818\" class=\"wp-image-24818\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5907-1024x768.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5907-300x225.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5907-768x576.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5907.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\"><br><br><br><br>King Sound deployed almost 100 L-Acoustics cabinets, including its new K2, at Bristol Sounds held at Bristol\u2019s harbourside ampitheatre.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5915-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"24820\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.l-acoustics.com\/?attachment_id=24820\" class=\"wp-image-24820\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5915-1024x768.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5915-300x225.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5915-768x576.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5915.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\"> King Sound deployed almost 100 L-Acoustics cabinets, including its new K2, at Bristol Sounds held at Bristol\u2019s harbourside ampitheatre. <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5868-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"24822\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.l-acoustics.com\/?attachment_id=24822\" class=\"wp-image-24822\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5868-1024x768.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5868-300x225.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5868-768x576.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5868.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\"><br><br><br><br>King Sound\u2019s new K2 inventory in its Bristol warehouse.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5912.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"24824\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5912.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.l-acoustics.com\/?attachment_id=24824\" class=\"wp-image-24824\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5912.jpg 1000w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5912-300x225.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_5912-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\"> King Sound deployed almost 100 L-Acoustics cabinets, including its new K2, at Bristol Sounds held at Bristol\u2019s harbourside ampitheatre. <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leading UK event production company King Sound Reinforcement adds to its substantial K Series inventory for the busy summer season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":24818,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"news_tags":"","tags_api":"","footnotes":""},"news-tag":[],"class_list":["post-24817","press-release","type-press-release","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 -
