HiSys boxes were used for a string of audio applications across the four days including spoken-word presentations, background music, and hymns for the award ceremonies; two HiSys H10s and two HiSys H12s were deployed on speaker tripods, and were the loudspeakers of choice due to their lightweight frames and high performance, according to European Event und Medientechnik GmbH's owner, Thomas Beth.
"We supplied the Peavey HiSys system for Tour Challenge because the audio clarity is so good, and we were thrilled about how easily transportable the boxes actually are," Beth enthuses. "All aspects of the sound were very well balanced, from the music to the spoken word; and we found the system to be extremely capable.
"Furthermore, in some locations at the event, we had to rely on emergency power supply units, but because HiSys is so energy-efficient, this proved no problem whatsoever. Overall, it's just a great multi-application system."
Post-event, organisers were extremely pleased with how things turned out, and plans for Tour Challenge 2014 are already well underway.
