Since acquiring the new loudspeakers, Van Gelder has noticed a dramatic difference when advancing shows with production managers and engineers. "Rather than trying to talk them out of the first choices on their riders, we're able to talk about more important things, like where to play golf! Thanks to V-Dosc, as well as some of the other new gear from our recent quarter-million-dollar system upgrade, we are providing first choices for the clients we do business with."
Van Gelder also finds being a member of the V-Dosc Network to be of great benefit. "When we're not using our rigs, which is rare, other Network members are. And if we should ever need to supplement our system with additional cabinets, those companies are just as willing to share their inventories. We've belonged to other similar product networks in the past, but L-Acoustics concept is by far the best thought out and implemented."
