"Initially, I had wanted to look at K-array's largest system, the KS4," says Eclipse CEO, Mark Brown. "Unfortunately, they weren't demonstrating it at Prolight+Sound, which was disappointing. However, Ryan Burr from Sennheiser Middle East and Dave Wooster from Sennheiser UK took me to a demo of the KR400s in a line array configuration. I couldn't believe what I was hearing - and seeing... the boxes are tiny, but they sound very impressive! And when I heard the price, I decided to purchase them for the new season starting in September."
"Dave Wooster and I visited Mark in March and he expressed an interest in a large format line array, so we immediately got into discussions about how innovative the K-array products are," adds Sennheiser ME's Ryan Burr. "When we got the demo area at Prolight+Sound, Mark had difficulty in seeing the speakers from a distance and it wasn't until we got closer to the stage that he realised which speakers we were demonstrating to him."
Brown continues, "The speakers and powered subs can be used as speakers on sticks, or as a full line array and when you work in the conference market, as we do, speakers are to be heard and not seen, so the KR400 was an answer to a prayer."
