Mason Sound's Todd Spangenberg comments: "We do the stage at Full Throttle Saloon every year in Sturgis, South Dakota and have a good working relationship with Mike Ballard, the owner of Full Throttle. This year Mike explained we'd need to bring in a bigger system as he'd booked KoRn to play the outdoor amphitheatre behind the bar. We knew our Tour Grade (TG) powered XLC rig would be perfect for providing the perfect balance of punch and precision."
Mason Sound's original spec for the event included 36 XLC127DVX loudspeakers (18 per side), but height restrictions limited the hangs to 15 boxes each. A Midas Heritage 3000 controlled the system from Front of House, with additional processing from a Klark Teknik DN360 EQ and a KT DN500 dual-channel compressor/limiter. The system was powered by 18 TG7 amplifiers with RCM-26 modules.
