In mid-August, Zurich hosted the 10th Streetparade, Europe’s largest techno music event, which was attended by 600,000 people from across the world. The event’s central features were the Lovemobiles, huge trucks equipped with high-power sound systems, and animations, to ‘bombard’ the crowd with techno sounds.

This year’s event featured a total of 29, of which three (24m long and 3.5m high) were 'armed' with systems by Italian manufacturer Outline: 4 Modulo Road High, 4 Modulo Road Bass, 8 Doppia, 4 Bomber, 8 Stackbass, 8 Victor Live, 4 Victor Disco, 4 Topsub, 8 Minisub, 16 Digita, 8 Omnia, 2 Tripla, 6 Flyone and 2 Stage 15 - all powered by digital T series power amps and processed by Genius 6 DSP. A Pro 408 and a Pro 405 console were used by the DJs.

Adrian Fuchs, owner of Skylight Veranstaltungstechnik, the Swiss rental firm working on the project in collaboration with Musik Produktiv PA/Licht of Zurich, Outline’s Swiss distributor, commented: "For years I’ve been satisfied with Outline’s systems. They’re compact but efficient as well as giving stacks of power, and we’re never afraid of the speakers jumping out the boxes, even if we crank up the volume. Sound reproduction is precise and extremely dynamic, giving even the smallest sonic details at low and high volume. We use various models, but with every single one of them there seems to be the same energy almost everywhere, over the whole frequency range."
