Hosted by TalkSport's Andy Goldstein, the event featured awards for nine separate categories and was dominated by Ronnie O'Sullivan and Mark Selby with Dennis Taylor and Cliff Thorburn inducted in to the Hall of Fame.
For the third year in a row MRL Productions supplied full production including lighting, staging, AV and camera feeds to screen. MRL also provided sound which meant that, also for the third year running, KV2 Audio loudspeakers were relied upon exclusively to transfer the presentation and performances to the audience.
The event had two stages - a live band stage and main awards stage.
For the band stage a KV2 Audio ES system was used whilst the main awards stage featured two EX 12 active two-way speakers, two EX 2.2 double 12" active subwoofers and four EX 26 active double 6" speakers for fill.
A long-time endorser of KV2 Audio products Craig Wiggins, MRL Productions' technical director, said, "We use KV2 Audio loudspeakers for their ease of use and stunning clarity. Unlike some systems you don't have to spend ages setting up to get a good sound. With the ES System, especially with the new 20MHz Super Digital EPAK 2500R amplifiers, set-up is very quick and you get incredible definition and output.
"We use the active EX 26 speaker on all our conferences these days as it is perfect for speech but when you need a bit more level for music playback or stings it can handle in with absolute ease, all from such a small box."
