Integrator Audio Acoustics installed a new Adamson system based on the CS-Series. The main hang per side consists of fifteen CS10 line array cabinets. Integrated in
this flown PA, are two CS119 subwoofers per side, supported by six CS119’s built under the stage.As the fills (CS7p) and centre cluster (CS7) are also from the CS-Series, all electronics and software are built in-house by Adamson Systems

Engineering in Canada. The concept of every loudspeaker is on-board: Class-D amplification, DSP processing and redundant audio networking via Milan AVB. This makes the wiring setup less complex and avoids bulky external amplification.

The large overhanging balcony causes acoustical challenges under and on the balcony, the solution was using Array optimization from Adamson Systems which is included in the CS series, with Array optimization the needed corrections per zone could be made without adding latency to the system, therefore the coverage and overall sound distribution throughout the venue is much more even.

For such a large installation the time needed was brought to a minimal because of the Adamson eco system. With an impressive 2 day’s of installation and 1 day of tuning, a cabinet count of 55pcs is realized
