A total of 82 Fohhn loudspeakers (both conventional speakers and line array systems) have been installed in the new theatre, including 22 AT-66 and twenty AT-10 systems from Fohhn's Arc-Series, eight AS-40 compact subwoofers, 22 Linea Series AL-20 near-field systems and four Linea AL-150 line source column speakers.
Six XM-4 wedges have also been supplied for stage monitoring. In addition, thirty-one DSP-controlled amplifiers - 20 D-2.1500, 10 D-4.750 and one D-2.750 - have been networked with two FC-9 controllers, enabling the entire system to be monitored and controlled using a central media control device.
The new system has been designed to ensure the best possible speech intelligibility throughout the entire theatre, as well as delivering powerful and dynamic music reproduction.
The installation was coordinated by Fohhn's Chinese partner Shoushan Systems Integration Ltd who are based in Guangzhou.
