The outdoor festival, now in its 18th year, was headlined by German reggae superstar Gentleman, who performed with his band in front of a capacity crowd of 3,000 fans.
The Hamm-based events agency Matzka GmbH was tasked with looking after the festival's sound, and a comprehensive Cohedra rig was considered the optimum solution for the job at hand.
Matzka settled on a setup consisting of 24 Cohedra CDR 208 mid/high units (12 per side), 20 Cohedra CDR 210 subs, four Cohedra Compact CDR 210 C subs and four Cohedra Compact CDR 108 C mid/high units (used as nearfills), and the results were spectacular.
Achim Matzka, managing director of Matzka GmbH, said, "Reggae Summer Night 2015 was the 18th year this amazing festival has been held in Hamm, and Gentleman and co. were able to really get the crowd going despite some genuine Caribbean temperatures on the night! The HK Audio Cohedra system did its job perfectly, providing crystal clear sound reproduction from the front of the stage right to the back of the field."
