The PA in the main hall consists of sixteen XLD281, four EVA-2151D and two Xsub enclosures driven by two TG5 and six CP4000S power amplifiers. As controllers, two Dx46 processors are on hand. Monitoring is facilitated by ten PX1122M wedges and four EVU2082/95 loudspeaker systems driven by six CP3000S power amplifiers. The decision-makers also opted for eight RE-2 wireless systems with a variety of microphone capsules and APD-4+ UHF antenna / power distribution systems - all from Electro-Voice, as are the various wired microphones in the hall.
The second hall is used for smaller shows and corporate events and equipped with eight EVA-2082S full-range as well as two EVA-2151D subwoofer line array elements. Here, too, CP4000S and CP3000S power amplifiers and a Dx46 controller are provided.
With these newly installed Electro-Voice systems, the Coliseum now leads the pack on the St Petersburg live music scene in terms of sound quality. "We have received a great many compliments for this installation," reports Gregory Ronin of Ruton S.
