UK - For the second year running, KV2 Audio's ES loudspeakers headed up the field as the main FOH system for Channel 4's The Games. Filmed in Sheffield, the brief was to provide a powerful system with high intelligibility in a stadium environment but with a minimum visual impact for the TV film crews.

Robert Beck of Avid AV chose KV2 Audio's ES predominantly due to its performance at last year's show, as well as on several projects since. Supplied by FT Audio Visual of Harrogate and engineered by Sid Arthur, the whole event was a huge success for Channel 4, easily beating previous year's viewing numbers.

This is the second time recently that ES has been used for a prestigious sporting event: Dave Lowton of Sound Support made the same decision for the launch of the new England football kit in Manchester just a few weeks earlier. That experience persuaded him to invest in his own KV2 system supplied by R.W.S Pro Division, which has already been around the world and back since its delivery in April.
