Rightway Audio Consultants design and install L-Acoustics A Series to meet\u00a0complex architectural requirements in dual performance venues<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

SUZHOU, China – May 2025 \u2013 <\/strong>The newly opened Suzhou Shishan Grand Theatre has deployed L-Acoustics A Series professional sound systems in its two performance halls to address the complex acoustic requirements of its diverse programming. Rightway Audio Consultants (RAC) designed and installed customized configurations of L-Acoustics A15i and A10i line arrays to ensure consistent coverage and superior intelligibility throughout both venues, which host everything from touring symphonies to traditional Chinese opera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Series Solves Dual-Venue Coverage Challenges Through Advanced 3D Modelling<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the project’s inception, the Grand Theatre management partnered with L-Acoustics Certified Provider Distributor Rightway Audio Consultants (RAC) with a clear goal: deliver world-class sound that would match the architectural excellence of the new-build venue while addressing the acoustic complexities of both performance spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RAC’s team utilized L-Acoustics Soundvision 3D modeling software to develop precise audio solutions for each hall’s unique requirements. “Soundvision allowed our team to meticulously model the acoustic properties of each space before installation began,” explains Li Junlong, Lead Audio System Designer & Vice Production Manager at RAC. “This detailed planning phase was crucial in addressing the complex architectural features and ensuring consistent audio coverage for every seat, despite the challenging layouts.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LCR A15i Configuration Solves Coverage and Sightline Challenges in Main Theatre<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 1,400-seat main theatre features a traditional proscenium stage with sliding acoustic panels that allow flexible conversion between theatrical productions and concert hall performances. This adaptability required an equally versatile sound system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RAC installed an LCR configuration comprising four L-Acoustics A15i Focus<\/a> and two A15i Focus per side with two SB18 IIi<\/a> subwoofers flown behind each array. The center array consists of two A15i Wide<\/a> enclosures. Two KS28<\/a> subwoofers, positioned on either side of the stage, deliver extended low frequency down to 25Hz, with an X12<\/a> box placed atop each enclosure stack for additional in-fill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This configuration accomplishes two critical objectives: it maintains visual sightlines to the stage while minimizing reflections against floor, wall, and ceiling surfaces that could compromise sound quality. The result is more uniform sound pressure levels and higher speech intelligibility throughout the venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ground-floor stall and second-floor balcony presented additional coverage challenges, which RAC addressed with strategically placed X8<\/a> speakers for side coverage. Ultra-compact 5XT<\/a> coaxial speakers deliver coverage to the rear stall seats and are also installed in the stage lip and orchestra pit to ensure consistent sound throughout the venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stage performers receive clear foldback signals from a combination of fixed flown and mobile X12 loudspeaker configurations, completing a comprehensive system that handles the venue’s diverse programming requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A10i System Provides Versatile Solution for Multi-Function Hall<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The smaller multi-functional hall features a left-right configuration of two L-Acoustics A10i Wide<\/a> per side with two SB18 IIi subwoofers flown above each array. One SB18 IIi subwoofer on either side of the stage delivers extended lows. Five 5XT coaxial speakers, hidden and embedded across the stage lip, serve as front-fill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This configuration delivers uniform sound pressure levels and unmatched intelligibility for presentations and smaller live performances, allowing the space to serve multiple functions while maintaining the L-Acoustics signature sound quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The Suzhou Shishan Grand Theatre exemplifies how advanced audio design can complement spectacular architecture to create truly immersive performance environments,” notes the Li of RAC. “The L-Acoustics systems throughout both performance venues ensure that the sonic experience matches the visual magnificence of Suzhou’s newest cultural landmark.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
