The main system consisted of five SP-10 line-array systems per side. To provide the first four rows with sound, two compact X-act full-range systems are positioned as front-fills. To augment the sub-lows, three self-powered SP-15s were also flown with the line array. Three Sound Projects SP2600 amplifiers power the array, while a dbx 480 DriveRack does all necessary processing.
Van de Klundert sound designer Dennis van der Vleuten commented: "Our choice for a Sound Projects line-array was obvious. The Sound Projects Wave-shape-transformer promises a real HF line source, necessary for efficient and good additive acoustic coupling. Additionally the waveguide, integrated in the Wave-shape-transformer, delivers an optimal constant directivity of 90° in the high region. After a few tests we found that the proof of the pudding is in the eating. The SP-10 system produces more power and sound quality than any comparable system in the same price-range. Each SP-10 housing consists of four five-inch side-firing LF drivers, two MF drivers and one HF driver. The sound quality is superior!"
Not only did Van de Klundert install the sound system in the main theatre, the company also provided the lobby/lounge and the Grand Café with a Sound Projects system. In the lobby/lounge several X-act full range systems supply overall sound while in the grand café three X-acts with augmenting SP-15 subs are installed.
