The system specifications for the marathon are impressive: 64 Electro-Voice TG7 amplifiers delivering 350,000 Watts, and 32 X-Line tops and 56 X-Line subs were distributed through seven sound stations.
Rüdiger Nürnberg of Satis&fy comments: "Not only in terms of overall loudness but also in point of homogeneity and even level distribution, the X-Line with the new presets is fully convincing. Normal bass loudspeakers in particular reach their thermal limits very quickly at these types of events, but the X-Line rose magnificently to the occasion. And once again, without a single glitch."
