"It's the combination of sound and price that draws me to Sennheiser," explains The Saturdays' production manager and FOH Engineer Andrew Thornton. "I've used both these systems with many other artists and I've always been happy with the results. The mics work well with all voices and give a nice bright sound without too much sibilance. The IEMs have rock solid reception and are small enough to be tucked away inside the most revealing outfit!
"The equipment worked very well for the entire tour. There wasn't one drop out on the whole tour. Everywhere we played the show looked and sounded great and everyone was very happy."
In addition to the audio quality and reliability of the Sennheiser equipment, Thornton was pleased with the support offered by Sennheiser UK's artist relations managers, Phil Cummings and Mark Saunders. "Phil and Mark offer a support network which is unrivalled. I've been a Sennheiser endorsed engineer for ten years and every tour I've ever done has featured their microphones. Whenever there is a problem I know they're both on the end of the phone to help in any way they can."
