SPS's Sean Murphy comments, "Our original Aspect rig has been going out two to three times per week since we bought it and we've been getting fantastic results every time, so as our volume of work has been building up it seemed logical to buy some more.
"We only really needed a few more boxes, but in our usual style we decided to go all out and get the system we always wanted it to be. So now we have 36 stacks of TA-890Hs with 16 twin 18" TSW-218s, six amp racks with two LMS-D26s in each, four sets of 3 wide flyware and cabling for days. It's all configured so we can run it either four or five way and we have BVNet running through the whole system so we have total control of everything all the time."
Since its delivery the new kit has already been working hard, featuring prominently on the MySpace and Fire Brigade trucks at Notting Hill Carnival, and is currently out on tour with Bucks Fizz.
"It's been quite some year for us," says proprietor Stephen Davies. We have always had a programme of constant expansion, but over the past 12 months we've also doubled the size of our lighting business, started a 48 track live recording service, launched a new website at www.subfrantic.com, and taken on a second warehouse. We're now well placed to cover everything from small corporate events through to arenas and next year we're planning to move into video too, so it's still all go here.
"I think we're now joint largest stockists of Aspect in the UK and with the sheer volume of work we've done with the system over recent years, we're quite possibly the most experienced operators of it."
