FOR
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
EAW® Loudspeakers Chosen for Malaysia’s
The Opera Nightclub
Whitinsville,
MA, USA, September 14, 2010 – The owners of The Opera,
a nightclub located in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia, recently turned to
EAW® for
a complete sound system upgrade. Regional EAW distributor ProAktiv
Systems supplied the EAW loudspeaker systems and Powersoft amplification,
which is now installed in the main theater and VIP areas throughout
The Opera.
The clubbing experience at The Opera
is enhanced by daily “Cirque Nouveau” performances featuring
acrobatic and circus troupes high above the main floor in the three-story,
10,000-square-foot theater. The main stage regularly features performances
by dance, gymnastic and martial artists. In addition, the club frequently
showcases recording artists, bands, DJs and video DJs.
The
main audio system in the theater, which is modeled after grand European
opera houses, comprises four EAW MK5396
two-way full range compact installation loudspeakers. The four-inch
voice coil, 15-inch drivers are complemented by four SB1002
dual-18-inch high-output subwoofers installed at floor level. Two
MK2326 compact
installation loudspeakers and a pair of VRS18
subwoofers supply under-balcony fill and delay. The main EAW system
is powered by a combination of Powersoft K3 and K8 amplifiers with
K2 and KF3 model amplifiers for the fill system.
EAW
MK2396 loudspeakers,
supplemented with VRS18 subwoofers, provide coverage in the luxury
VIP area, which offers a commanding view of the main floor and stage.
Four EAW compact two-way JFX290i
speakers provide in-fill while SMS5
speakers deliver coverage to the main corridor. Two Powersoft Digam
LD3004 four-channel amplifiers supply the power.
According to appointed system integrator
Bina Teguh, “The owners of the Opera were very unhappy with
the previous system installed so I was specifically asked to install
an EAW system. Time was of the essence, and when I contacted ProAktiv
Systems, a proposal with a complete solution was submitted within
24 hours. I was very impressed.”
“In fact, the entire system was
ordered and installed within two weeks of the order being made. Given
the high ceilings and many varied zones, this was a hard application
to get right, as we weren’t working with a blank canvas here.
However, the support and responsiveness that I experienced from ProAktiv
Systems was a novel experience for me, having worked many years in
the installation business and dealing with so many different suppliers
and distributors.”
