Poland - Once again, Gigant Sound was entrusted with delivering, installing, preparing, and operating the sound systems for Poland’s largest annual charity event, the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity (WOŚP) Finale. The 2025 edition, held on 26 January, set a new fundraising record, surpassing 178m zloty (€42.2m) by the end of the evening.
Founded by Jerzy Owsiak, WOŚP is one of Poland’s most recognised non-governmental, non-profit organisations, dedicated to improving healthcare by providing medical equipment to public hospitals. Owsiak, also the creator of the renowned Pol’and’Rock Festival, has been instrumental in shaping the country’s most significant charitable and cultural events.
Gigant Sound deployed a powerful Outline audio setup, including their flagship GTO line-array systems. In the dedicated TV studio area, Outline’s compact yet high-performance Superfly enclosures provided pristine sound reproduction. Both systems were driven by Outline’s [patented] FPGA-based Newton processors, ensuring optimal signal management and reliability.
Gigant Sound also incorporated Outline DBS 18-2 sub-bass units into the main stage and TV studio setup. The entire system design and configuration were planned using Outline’s OpenArray 3D acoustic simulation software, enabling Gigant Sound to achieve precise coverage and performance across the vast event area.
Jerzy Taborowski, CEO of Gigant Sound/Letus, comments: "I’ve worked with many PA systems in my long career, but when it comes to covering huge areas, nothing compares to GTO: it delivers unmatched clarity, headroom, and power, ensuring every listener experiences the same incredible sound, no matter the distance."
Regarding the use of Superfly in the TV studio area, Taborowski adds: "Superfly was ideal for this application because, despite its compact size and lightweight build, it delivers tremendous SPL with studio-quality sound. Two Superfly modules provide almost the same LF/MF performance as a single GTO cabinet, allowing us to adapt our rigging while maintaining sonic integrity. Additionally, the cardioid characteristics of its LF section help keep unwanted low frequencies off the stage, making it perfect for confined spaces."
