After listening to GEO at a demo hosted by Nexo distributor Iemke Roos, Paul Achterberg knew he had found what he was looking for. "The sonic performance of GEO is very, very good, but the coverage throughout the soundfield and the phase coherency of the system is, in my opinion, simply outstanding," said Achterberg, who placed an order for 20 Nexo Geo S-805 cabinets (5° vertical dispersion), four Nexo Geo S-830 cabinets (30° vertical dispersion), eight Nexo CD-12 sub bass cabinets, four Nexo NX 241 digital processors and six Camco Vortex 6 amplifiers. Together with the flying gear and hardware necessary to run two smaller systems if required, Achterberg describes his versatile GEO inventory as "the best decision, sound-wise, I have ever made!"
His partner Martijn Ceulemans has invested in a Nexo PS10 monitor system, which will be matched up with the GEO rig to provide monitoring functionality. In the near future, there are plans to expand this system with additional PS10s and PS15s for the more demanding monitoring applications.
