The event attracted 13.600 enthusiastic fans, amongst others from Japan, Poland and Germany, presented as a live television broadcast. KS IT & media service/Jobel productions provided the technical organisation for live transmission, sound and technical infrastructure.
Eight K.M.E. sound systems, each comprising three line array tops QL 906 and three bass QLB 118s were placed around the ramp (approx. 160m long x 40m deep) after previous simulation in the stadium. Power supplies and signal infrastructure were also put into place, following simulation and fitted perfectly on site.
Defined dispersion characteristic of 90° x 6° per element, excellent reverse attenuation and stacking properties were the main criteria for the K.M.E. PANO Line array. This resulted in an even homogeneous sound for the entire spectator area, with an average maximum SPL of 122.
