The event was aimed at audio professionals throughout the region with an active involvement in the installed sound market, designed to give them an opportunity to discover the latest product innovations from the TC Group's pro-audio brands; namely Tannoy, Lab.gruppen and Lake, as well as some insight into the market-leading DSP install solutions from Biamp Systems.
The well-equipped community arts theatre proved to be an appropriate venue for demonstrating Tannoy's VQ Series point-source PA system and the company's QFlex digitally steerable column array.
Delegates were also treated to the first public demonstration of Tannoy's new VX Series and VXP Series, the latter featuring Lab.gruppen's IDEEA (Intelli-Drive Energy Efficient Amplifier) power module, ahead of the official debut demo at the InfoComm show in Orlando later this year.
Mark Flanagan, communications manager for Tannoy, Lab.gruppen and Lake commented, "We were delighted to be able to showcase some of the new VX and VXP product here in Dubai, especially with it being in advance of the scheduled first public demonstration at InfoComm in June. It added extra impact and gravitas to the seminar and really underlined the company's commitment and high regard for the Middle East market."
During an equally busy afternoon session, Lab.gruppen and Lake presented their amplification and powered loudspeaker management platforms, with emphasis on the install potential of each of the main product ranges.
Rounding off the day, Biamp Systems added to the scope of the event with a presentation of their 'Agile Networking' philosophy to networked digital audio systems with particular focus on the application of this with their Vocia range of products,
