Turbosound's active/passive two-way TCS-122/64 speakers and TXD-218 dual 18" subwoofers have been installed in one of India's most prestigious private schools.
Three pairs of 60°h x 40°v dispersion TCS-122/64 are on FOH duties in St Helena's Girls School in Pune - dubbed 'the Oxford of the East' - and the second largest city in the Indian state of Maharashtra after Mumbai. Two pairs are affixed to each side of the stage in the school's impressive new auditorium, with a further pair centre stage to cater to the front rows.
In addition, two Turbosound TXD-218 dual 18" front-loaded subwoofers have been placed in each corner of the stage providing full bandwidth down to 30Hz with excellent front to back rejection.
Stage monitoring is handled by four Turbosound Milan M15 powered two-way loudspeakers, which deliver a whopping 450 watts of super-clean power from a lightweight injection-moulded package.
The equipment was supplied by Mumbai-based Narain Pro Audio Lighting Pvt Ltd., and installed by Pune-based Yash Audio Visual.
"The school's newly opened auditorium is dedicated to enhancing musical performances, with an acoustic design by Mr Micky Registrar," says Narain Pro Audio's Director Manoj Motwani. "We needed a sound system that would enhance the natural acoustics afforded to this structure and sound fantastic for music and speech, and also as a 7.1 Dolby digital/DTH compatible cinema. The frequency response of the system was of paramount importance to be able to deliver on all counts."
