Perspex Wedges make it onto Korean TV

The success of Martin Audio’s LE12JB perspex wedge monitors, first launched by DM Audio at

the Eurovision Song Contest several years ago, has extended to Pacific Asia.

Korean television station KBS (Korean Broadcasting System) has unveiled the LE12JB’s on several KBS2 programmes, including Music Bank (a Korean version of Top of the Pops), Love Letter of Yoon (a talk show with music), Challenge! Golden Bell (a celebrity quiz show) and Request for Love (a telephone donation benefit programme).

The idea was the brainchild of TV producer Mr. Moon, who was first alerted to the perspex monitors at the 2005 Eurovision Song Contest. He realised this solution would also enable him to mount discreet wedges within the Korean concert setting.

Optimised by a dedicated DX1 controller and powered by MA2.8s amplifiers, the system has certainly proved popular; the station has not only received 100% positive response from the performers, but the viewing figures have also shot up.

Mr. Choi from Young Jin Electronics, Martin Audio’s Korean distributor, commented, “We are very proud of the KBS perspex monitors and would like to thank the station for choosing Martin Audio.”
