Nazareth enjoy cult status in the Czech Republic
Czech Republic - Veteran Scots rock group Nazareth enjoy cult status in the Czech Republic, a fact that was once again evident at their show in Hradec Králové where they sold out the 3,000-seater Aldis Congress Centre for the last stop of their Still Loud 'n' Proud tour. The ACC is a venue notable not only for its impressive size but also for the quality of its infrastructure, acoustics, sightlines and artists' dressing rooms.

To ensure the sound was worthy of the setting, the tour organizers contracted Dvur Králové nad Labem-based rental company Sound Service to handle the sound reinforcement. For the Nazareth production, the team led by company chief Oldrich Skalický opted for an extensive Dynacord system, with a combination of horn-loaded Dynacord F12, FX 20 and FX 12 boxes combined with a Cobra 2 line-array system.

The system included six F12 CHW, two F 17 PWH, eight FX 20 and four F18 PWH enclosures stacked on each side of the stage. These were complemented by a cluster comprising two FX 12 and one Electro-Voice ZX5 enclosure flown centre-stage. "This cluster allowed us to reach the furthest row of the balcony," says Sound Service's Oldrich Skalický.

For the foldback, two CXM15 and two D12 speakers as well as a pair of Electro-Voice TX1122 FM wedges were used. Control and supervision of the loudspeakers was provided by three Dynacord DSP244 controllers.
