The PA system, provided by Atlanta-based AEE Productions, utilised 16 EAW KF740 three-way full range line array Loudspeakers flown in two line arrays on either side of the 60ft wide stage. Another 16 EAW SB1000z large format subwoofers were set up and stacked on the stage itself. In addition, a pair of the new EAW KF394 line array modules was used as an out-fill on the wings of the main line array, positioned three feet behind and two feet to the side of the line array hangs, and eight EAW KF730s were used as delay speakers. The system was processed and controlled using EAW's UX8800 digital signal processor with proprietary EAW Focusing.
The event celebrated the newest graduating class of Spelman College, America's oldest historically black college for women and ranked among the nation's top liberal arts colleges by US News and World Report.
"The entire system sounded fantastic, particularly the new KF394 speakers," states West Brothers, co-owner of AEE Productions. "You could hear every word clearly, and the 394s really filled up the sides of the room smoothly and evenly."
