BEIJING,
China – In an effort to support the most influential economic forum in the
Asia-Pacific region, local HARMAN distributor ACE recently provided sound
reinforcement for the welcome banquet of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation
(APEC) forum in Beijing. ACE supplied a full range of HARMAN audio equipment
and technical support, featuring a JBL VTX line array system, Crown I-Tech HD amplifiers,
Soundcraft Vi6 mixing consoles, and BSS BLU-800 signal processors.
Ten national
Chinese music performances were the highlight of the evening at the Beijing
National Aquatics Center (Water Cube), where the banquet was held. Originally
used for the 2008 Summer Olympics swimming competitions, the Water Cube is now used
for grand theatrical events. On November 10, 2014, it was the perfect venue to
welcome international VIPs for the 22nd APEC Economic Leaders’
Meeting.
To support
this unique event, ACE supplied eight VTX V20 loudspeakers and four VTX S25
subwoofers for the main PA. In addition, ACE also provided 10 VTX F15 loudspeakers, 12 VTX F12 loudspeakers for stage
monitoring and distributed fill, complemented by four VTX F18S subwoofers for
outfill. The system was powered with 16 Crown I-Tech 4x3500HD and six I-Tech 12000HD
amplifiers, and processed with eight BSS BLU-800 signal processors. Finally, at
the heart of the audio setup were two Soundcraft Vi6 digital mixing consoles,
providing the technicians with a stable and secure mixing process.
The banquet’s
dazzling fireworks and lighting effects were matched only by the high
performance PA system. Equipped with the revolutionary D2 dual drivers, the VTX
V20 loudspeakers pushed clarity to the extremes as they delivered pure and unadulterated high
frequencies at any output level. As always, ACE’s outstanding professionalism
and seasoned technical team ensured a beautiful audio-visual feast throughout
the night.
