HOKKAIDO, Japan – March 2025 \u2013<\/strong> Established in 1977 as a community hub for artistic and cultural engagement in northern Japan, the Sapporo Education and Culture Center\u2014affectionately known as ‘Kyobun’\u2014has enhanced its 360-seat Small Hall with an L-Acoustics professional sound system upgrade. After operating with increasingly outdated technology for over two decades, the venue partnered with L-Acoustics Certified Provider Distributor Bestec Audio to design and install a versatile solution that would support everything from formal ceremonies to theatrical performances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First Impressions Aid Upgrade Choice<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I first experienced L-Acoustics in 2017 when Bestec Audio provided a Kiva II as a reference speaker for a mixing control board demo,” recalls Mr. Takada, Stage Manager, Business Department of the Sapporo City Arts and Culture Foundation. “The pristine sound from such a compact box impressed me immediately, and I knew then that L-Acoustics would be the ideal choice when we were ready to upgrade our Small Hall.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aging system’s critical maintenance issues\u2014including dependence on obsolete PC software for amplifier control with no replacement options\u2014created an urgent need for modernization to keep the Small Hall competitive alongside the Center’s larger performance spaces and conference facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Precision Engineering for Versatile Performance<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bestec Audio designed a professional sound system centered around L-Acoustics A Series and X Series technology.\u00a0The main system comprises a single proscenium centre array of one A10i Focus<\/a> atop two A10i Wide<\/a> with a KS21i<\/a> subwoofer with side arrays of two A10i Focus atop one KS21i, both hidden behind screens.\u00a0Panflex horizontal directivity adjustment provides precise coverage throughout the venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two 5XT<\/a> coaxial boxes are embedded in the stage lip for front-fill, while a pair of X8<\/a> provide out-fill. Two X8 boxes permanently rigged on each side backstage provide monitoring for performers, with an additional X12<\/a> and four X8 enclosures available as a foldback system.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Permanently rigged X8 boxes backstage and mobile X12 and X8 enclosures provide stage monitoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For theatrical productions and music performances requiring additional impact, two mobile ground stacks\u2014each containing two A10i Focus speakers on top of two KS21i subwoofers\u2014can be positioned on either side of the stage. The entire system is driven by LA4X<\/a> and LA2Xi<\/a> amplified controllers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exceptional Clarity in Every Seat<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Although the hall is rather reverberant, the clarity has improved dramatically,” notes Ms. Kanamura from Horizon Art Co., Ltd., who manages audio in the Small Hall. “Previously, the sound felt harsh when you were close to the side speakers, but now the experience is comfortable whether you’re close or far away. This consistency applies across all event types\u2014from lectures to music and dance performances\u2014regardless of sound pressure level.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The system’s performance has proven particularly impressive in challenging situations. “The side speakers are hidden behind a screen in the wall. There are times now when a speaker with a microphone stands directly in front of them, yet we do not encounter any feedback issues,” explains Mr. Takada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expanding Creative Possibilities<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The Education and Culture Hall focuses on performing arts such as opera and ballet. With our rejuvenated Small Hall complementing our larger venue, we can now stage a diverse range of performances across both spaces. The brand-new system benefits speech-oriented presentations while creating new opportunities for smaller cultural productions and event organizers,” concludes Mr. Takada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
