Young-jin Electronics have carried out a major Martin Audio installation at the Osan Cultural Center in southern Seoul.

The theatre has been reinforced with line array hangs of seven W8LM enclosures on either side of the proscenium arch, with two Blackline H2’s forming the centre cluster. A Blackline S218 handles the sub frequencies on either side of the proscenium.

The system is powered with a combination of Martin Audio MA2.8 and 4.2 amplifiers and system control is provided by the dedicated DX-1 controller.

The facility is aimed at the local population of Osan province and can accommodate up to 600 people.

The system was designed by the venue’s experienced sound system manager and production director, Kwon-O-Jin — who has a wide knowledge of Martin Audio products extending back a long way.

The mayor of Osan Province is highly impressed with the set-up, in particular praising the world class sound. “Compared with other provincial cultural centres, Osan is excellent; the new sound system makes the auditorium particularly suited to musical and orchestral performance and has enabled us to hold a cultural event here on a daily basis.”

A new complex, King Of The King has opened in Shengzhen, featuring a massive complement of Martin Audio power and sound reinforcement equipment.

The venue is situated in an office block, which is convenient for the executive after a hard day’s work, and has good parking provision.

King of the King is being designed in three phases — each with its own separate designer. The first phase has seen the development of 37 x Karaoke TV/ VIP rooms, and was opened last Christmas Eve. Recently the second phase opened, consisting of a further 17 deluxe VIP rooms. Although the designers are different in each case, both have adopted Ancient Egypt as their theme, with depiction of pharaohs.

No fewer than 46 Martin Audio F15/WF15 and 28 x F12/WF12 loudspeakers were used in the first part of the development, augmented by 11 x WS2A and 5 x S218 subwoofers.

The second phase has seen the deployment of a further 91 Martin Audio Wavefront and Blackline enclosures.

The system is EQ’d using 17 of Martin Audio’s dedicated M3 controllers, and is powered by 24 x Martin Audio MA2.8S, 10 x MA4.2S and 10 x MA1400 amplifiers.

The third phase is due for

completion soon.
