Coupled with Camco amplification, Nexo PS8's and PS10's - all supplied through Fuzion plc - have become David Wise's frontline solution for the high-end corporate market in venues like the British, Natural History, Science and Victoria & Albert Museums as well as Kensington and Hampton Court Palace.
"The control systems are pre-rigged off site because we generally only get 60 minutes set up time," says Wise, who started his company in 1992.
Most of the company's work is speech reinforcement, for which the PS series is ideal he says. "We tend to run these at low volume, and where there's a bit of punch needed we reinforce this with the LS500 subs. These are also great when we are doing Awards stings and require music inserts."
One recent event at which the PS8's were put through their paces was for the David Attenborough Studio Presentation, in front of an audience of 160 people in the Natural History Museum's Central Hall. As the capacity of the Hall is much greater than this, Wise Productions had to redesign the set up, deploying PS8's for infill and front fills.
Aside from this Wise Productions is currently working on developing a wireless lectern, for use inspecific venues, and will shortly invest in a compact Nexo GEO-S line array system - for a specific event - which will give improved sightlines and dispersion as well as further minimising rigging and cabling.
