Harman audio for Korean culture centre
- Details
With the foundation of a self-sustaining creative ecosystem, Geumjeong Arko Performing Practice Centre is an optimised practice space for performing artists. The venue consists of a grand practice room, two substantial practice rooms, and two small practice rooms. It also provides a showcase space for performing artists and groups.
TechDataPS Co reports that the client wanted a high-quality audio system to record and edit audio. They also wanted to maximise the design setup and use the space for both practice and small performances. Such a setup needed the infrastructure and speaker systems to be flexibly configured, providing them with the opportunity to change the layout from horizontal to vertical when needed. Harman Professional audio systems were chosen for the task.
The speaker and subwoofer system installed consists of the JBL AM7212 full-range loudspeaker system with a dual voice coil and dual magnetic gap. PRX818XLF self-powered extended low-frequency subwoofer system with remote Wi-Fi control and PRX812W full-range speakers were fitted to the main system and floor monitor applications, offering powerful JBL signature sound and complete wireless control.
The loudspeaker and subwoofer system is supported with Crown XTI6002 and XTI4002 amplifiers and Soundcraft VI1 mixing console. As the client wanted a flexible, easily operable system with less staff involvement, digital mixer pre-sets were introduced. BLU-100 processors were used to operate the setup without separate patching, ensuring seamless switchover and safe performance.
“Providing pristine sound quality for multi-purpose venues like Geumjeong Arko Performing Practice Centre requires audio systems that are future-proofed,” said Ramesh Jayaraman, VP & GM Harman Professional Solutions, APAC. "We would like to thank our partner TechDataPS Co for providing an enriching experience to the client.”
