Situated in the heart of the Alps at 1,720m above sea level, the Schmiedhofalm Ski Lodge in Zell am See, Austria recently underwent renovations to accommodate a larger crowd of up to 300 people in addition to offering live music. Distributor Musik Lenz designed a complete system to meet the acoustic needs of a modern event and dining facility as well as the demands of the owners.
A total of six individually-controlled zones were maintained: 4 Kobra-KK52 line arrays and a Thunder-KMT18P subwoofer in the main bar, 10 Tornado-KT2 point sources combined with 5 Rumble-KU26 subwoofers throughout the restaurant, 2 Python-KP52 line arrays and a Thunder-KMT18P sub at the outside bar and 8 Tornados paired with 4 Rumble-KU26 subs in the terrace area all driven by Kommander-KA24 amplifiers. Several different input sources were connected: a computer, the TV signal and also a connection point for external mp3 players were installed. The system even allows bands and performers to connect their system to the house system and vice versa.
We are very pleased. By combining the various K-array models we were able to create an ideal sound, neither intrusive nor too quiet. The clear tone produced by the system justifies our decision and gives you a feeling as if each track is played live.
