At 10:08 precisely, the specially chartered Lufthansa Boeing 747 from Rio de Janeiro with the 23 German world champions on board touched down in Berlin. The triumphant national squad was given a rapturous reception by Tegel Airport staff, airline employees, journalists and hundreds of jubilant onlookers.
Eight Sennheiser LSP 500 PRO supplied by Bärlin Team operating on behalf of Berlin Airports ensured that the welcome addresses for the players could be clearly heard by all those present. Four LSP 500 PRO were located on the apron area and a further four were set up on the visitors' terrace about 150m away.
The signals were transmitted wirelessly via an integrated Sennheiser SR 300 IEM G3 transmitter to EM 300 G3 receivers in the LSP 500 PRO. Dan Wittke, managing partner of Bärlin Team Eventdesign, summed up, "Thanks to Sennheiser audio technology, the event was a huge success for all those involved."
