Historic Dutch venue overcomes acoustic challenges, setting a new standard in audio<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

BUSSUM, Netherlands – July 2024<\/strong> \u2014 Theatre Spant!, a cornerstone of cultural programming in Bussum, has taken a significant step forward in audio quality with the installation of a new L-Acoustics Kara IIi professional sound system. This upgrade, part of a broader renovation, aims to deliver improved sound experiences across the venue’s diverse range of events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We recognized the need to update our 20-year-old system, especially to address dispersion issues, as we\u2019d hear from audience in the front rows that the sound was too aggressive, but those in the balcony had trouble hearing,” explains Jan Willem van Voorst and Frans Grolle, Audio Technicians at Theatre Spant! “Our goal was to ensure consistent, high-quality audio throughout the entire space.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The venue’s requirements were comprehensive: improved dispersion, appropriate sound pressure levels, and accurate reproduction across the audio spectrum. Importantly, the new system needed to be versatile enough to handle everything from corporate events with multiple headsets to theatrical performances and concerts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After careful consideration and a demonstration organised with L-Acoustics Certified Provider Distributor Fairlight, the L-Acoustics Kara IIi professional sound system emerged as the preferred choice. The teams collaborated closely, using L-Acoustics Soundvision software to design a solution tailored to Theatre Spant!’s specific needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new setup features left\/right line arrays, each comprising two SB18 IIi subwoofers<\/a> and eight Kara IIi<\/a> enclosures. Additional components include KS28 subwoofers<\/a> and X12<\/a> in-fills on stage, four 5XT<\/a> speakers for front-fill, and strategically placed 5XT in-fills behind the balcony light coves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The installation process was smooth and professional,” van Voorst notes. “The Fairlight and L-Acoustics teams worked well with our in-house technicians, paying close attention to details like amplifier placement and connectivity. This has resulted in a system that’s both powerful and user-friendly.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this upgrade, Theatre Spant! is now better equipped to handle its varied program of events. The new system provides improved sound distribution and quality across the venue, with particular improvement noted in the previously challenging balcony area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We’re very pleased with the results,” van Voorst concludes. “The new system meets our expectations for both in-house productions and external events. It’s a significant step forward in our ability to provide high-quality audio experiences for all our visitors.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This L-Acoustics upgrade represents an important investment in Theatre Spant!’s future, enhancing its capacity to deliver exceptional audio across a wide range of performances and events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
