Sydney-based Showtime Promotions and Productions was awarded the contract to supply the system and chose the Turbosound TCS Compact range.
To ensure even coverage, Showtime opted for a distributed system, comprising eight TCS-081C and two TCS-101C spread evenly around the venue, complemented by a front of house style system for DJ and band performances. This comprises four TCS-121C, flown two per side, with a pair of TSB-212 subs installed under the stage.
The system is powered by 16 channels of Lab.gruppen C-Series amplifiers and managed by a Peavey MediaMatrix NION nX32 system with wall panel touch controls.
"The Turbosound TCS Compact series is popular with my clients as they are unobtrusive but sound deceivingly large," says Rob Runko from Showtime. "For a very busy, multi-purpose venue like Madam De Biers where reliability, sound quality and visuals are all very important, they are the perfect choice."
