"That was when I first heard how a system could really sound", recalls Farrell. "At first I took no notice of these large blue boxes being wheeled in but as soon as Richard from Real Time fired up the system I instantly knew this was something really special."
Farrell continues, "That started my determination that one day we'd have Opus at The Corn Exchange. At this venue we cover everything from solo artists, cabaret, jazz, classical and theatre, right through to full-on rock'n'roll, and I've never heard anything that will handle all of these like Opus. During the last five years we've had every conceivable system in here for performances providing their own sound, so I've had the chance to audition a vast range of systems in the venue, and every time I come back to Opus". He concludes, "I knew it would take time to find the resources to invest in an Opus system, but now we have and The Corn Exchange really does have a system that is second to none."
The new Corn Exchange system comprises of Opus AT1000 3-way active Array Technology cabinets with Opus SB118 sub-bass cabinets, all driven from Opus XS234 loudspeaker management systems and Opus HD High Definition power amplifiers.
