One of Atlantic Productions' larger clients is the City of Amersfoort, where the company does most of its large events and festivals. There were important reasons why the company was looking for a line-array system. Chris Polhout (MD) says: "Because we often do events in the centre of the city, we have to deal with stringent rules and laws regarding the maximum allowable SPL at adjacent buildings and/or houses. A great benefit of line-arrays is that it is possible to beam the sound precisely where you want it. We have tried out the Linex system in many of these situations and found this aspect very convincing. But most of all it was the smooth sound, the light-weight and the easy handling that were decisive for our choice. The speech bandwidth is really striking, that is the power of this system."
Atlantic Productions has worked with Linex a lot lately; including a tour with pianist Jan Vayne (and the Gipsy Boys) and the Lowlands Festival. Polhout comments: "We get only positive and great reactions. With the homage of the Utrecht soccer team last month we have stacked the Linex system, instead of rigging it up. Linex worked flawlessly and beyond our expectation!"
