On May 3, 2001 Mass
Audio Visual of Burlington, Massachusetts, a premiere audio and
visual company, along with EAW's developmental partner for the KF760's
demonstrated their new KF760 boxes for the first time ever. The large
event held at the scenic Boston Fleet Center went off in style.
The first in the world to own this product, MassAV entertained 125 industry
guests (Meeting Planners, Audio Engineers, AV related vendors, Producers)
at the renowned concert facility on Boston's Waterfront, The Fleet Boston
Pavilion. On staff were a handful of EAW engineers and marketing folks
as well as many professionals from MassAV ready to answer questions
or discuss line array technology. Senior Audio Engineer for massAV,
Jason Geshelin, designed the new system for even coverage in the 5,000-seat
tented-facility: The event was no less than spectacular in every way.
Jason Geshelin explained, "The Pavilion is an acoustically challenging
facility to cover and mix in. The KF760 solved many problems inherent
to the venue, including eliminating delay speakers."
The afternoon featured entertainment from the Berklee
Tower of Power Ensemble and Singer/Songwriter Brian Alex.
The pop performance enabled the sweet sound to come through the boxes
perfectly. The band and slew of female vocalists turned up the heat
even higher on the unseasonably warm spring day. Everyone appeared to
be enjoying themselves and feeling quite proud to be involved in such
a monumental event. Brad Berger, FOH (front of the
house) engineer for the Berklee Tower of Power Ensemble and the chief
engineer at Berklee Performance Center commented, "The imaging and coverage
was fantastic" he continued, "The coverage was smooth throughout the
facility. I was really impressed by the quick drop-off and lack of sound
coming off the back of the box. PA did everything I wanted it to do
every time I touched it. Working with massAV was a complete pleasure."
Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW) demonstrated the powerful capabilities
of sound when using the right reinforcement tools.
