Norway - Dutch loudspeaker system manufacturer Sound Projects reports that Norwegian hire company PA Produksjoner (PAP), with two Norwegian departments (Stavanger and Bergen) has invested in 24 of its Linex line array systems. Researching suitable systems, PAP invited six different brands to bring their line-array systems to the Kongeparken Amfi theatre in Stavanger for a final test. Jan Olav Sandsmark, managing director of PAP, says: "We rigged up five different systems in one whole day and tested the next day. We were not extremely happy with any of the systems, until the Sound Projects team came along and rigged the Linex system up in nine minutes and blew our mind! Not only the easy rigging, but the light weight made us decide for Sound Projects. The clear, good sound settled the matter. We didn't have a second doubt about which sound system was the best. Ever since we have the Linex systems in our warehouse it is constantly rented out. It is so easy to work with, that even our lighting technician has rigged it alone and managed perfectly!"At the beginning of July, PAP used the Linex system in Holmerkollen, Oslo, for a brass band festival in which all the country's brass bands lined up alongside Norway's pop king, Morten Abel. Over 15,000 people attended the festival.
