Based some 500 miles away in Nairobi, the sound specialists from AVE opted for a Dynacord solution based around the D-Lite series for a number of reasons: "Dynacord enjoys an excellent reputation in the industry based on countless prestige references that include some of the largest and best clubs in the world," explains AVE's Omar Abdalla.
In view of the size of the club, a solution was needed in which the enclosures were relatively compact yet capable of delivering powerful but transparent sound and homogeneous coverage. "The Dynacord D-Lite system was therefore ideally suited," adds Abdalla. "Not only is it top notch in terms of sound quality, but it also provided the ideal complement to the visual aesthetic of the club."
To provide the best possible coverage, Omar Abdalla and his team installed four D-Lite D12W 12" two-way loudspeakers, two Dynacord Sub 118 subwoofers, and four Dynacord D8W 8" two-way loudspeakers for each of the club's two dance floors. Omar Abdalla is a special fan of the D-Lite D12W cabinets.
"They deliver a linear frequency response, powerful and natural sound reproduction, and crystal-clear resolution throughout their entire frequency range. For this reason, they represent the ideal solution for the most distinguished clubs, of which the K-Club is certainly one."
The installation also features two Dynacord D 8A DJ monitors, two DSP 260 sound system managers, and a variety of power amplifiers (4 x SL 2400, 2 x SL 1800).
"I never compromise on quality," explains the K-Club's Managing Director, Emile Mulego. "We invested heavily in importing most of the equipment, in the renovation of the building, and in the artistic design of the club, giving it a new look that greatly enhances our guests' experience here."
