This vibrant hub houses two performance spaces &#8211; the main hall, already boosted by a powerful L-Acoustics Kara II concert sound system installed in 2021, and the intimate 306-seat small hall. Now, Itabashi is elevating the sonic experience in its smaller venue by installing a premium A Series professional sound system acquired from L-Acoustics Certified Provider Distributor Bestec Audio. Music lovers can now enjoy pristine audio tailored for the small hall&#8217;s dimensions, from pop and rock concerts to classical recitals, piano showcases, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr. Mochida, Head of Sound at Itabashi and engineer at Sigma Communications Co. Ltd led the Kara II installation in the main hall. &#8220;We wanted the same renowned L-Acoustics quality in the small hall, too,&#8221; Mochida explains. I&#8217;m accustomed to L-Acoustics, and having the same brand throughout the venue allows efficient system management via LA Network Manager.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another key factor was flexibility. &#8220;By using L-Acoustics in both halls, the amplified controllers can also drive our complement of mobile speakers in either hall when events require it,&#8221; Mochida adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"297854\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/la-itabashi-culture-hall-2-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"The ground-stacked LR system of two L-Acoustics A10i Focus with one A10i Wide atop two KS21i subs per side is hidden behind an acoustically transparent mesh wall\" class=\"wp-image-297854\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/la-itabashi-culture-hall-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/la-itabashi-culture-hall-2-300x169.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/la-itabashi-culture-hall-2-768x432.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/la-itabashi-culture-hall-2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The ground-stacked LR system of two L-Acoustics A10i Focus with one A10i Wide atop two KS21i subs per side is hidden behind an acoustically transparent mesh wall<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"297856\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/la-itabashi-culture-hall-3-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"L-Acoustics X12 coaxial speakers are used for on-stage monitoring\" class=\"wp-image-297856\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/la-itabashi-culture-hall-3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/la-itabashi-culture-hall-3-300x225.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/la-itabashi-culture-hall-3-768x576.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/la-itabashi-culture-hall-3.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">L-Acoustics X12 coaxial speakers are used for on-stage monitoring<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As the A Series integration began, Mochida and his Sigma team underwent comprehensive L-Acoustics training to ensure optimal live audio production across both venues for the Centre&#8217;s packed weekly schedule.

The sleek A Series system is discreetly housed behind an acoustically transparent mesh wall, providing even coverage from front to back. A centre hang of A10i Focus also uses an acoustically transparent screen for a clean look.
