CUNEO, Italy – A Dog On Tour Service, a pro Audio rental company that specializes in live rock, pop and jazz events, recently added a HK Audio ConTour Array system including four CTA 118 subwoofers and four CTA 208 mid/high units to its rental inventory.
Owner Pier Francesco Leardi officially founded his company in 2007, but has been an HK Audio user since 1990. Back then Leardi was working as a technician in a recording studio when he bought his first HK Audio sound reinforcement system – a system that is still up and running today.
Knowing the reliability of his old system, Pier Francesco Leardi had no qualms about investing more heavily into additional active and passive HK Audio systems once his own company had finally been founded.
"I have always been very satisfied with the quality of HK Audio products-especially with my good old 1990 system that still works perfectly and has never let me down," Leardi said. "Since we had a few larger events coming up in the second half of 2009, investing in a ConTour Array made perfect sense."
Leardi has already used the new gear at the Mista' Jazz Festival, the Tracce Sonore Rock Contest for local bands, Open Season in the Prato Nevoso ski area, the Gridalo Forte Singing Competition, and with artist Lou Dalfin, a proponent of Occitanic Italian folk music.
"I've already used the ConTour Array system in very different situations that have placed very different demands upon it, and everybody loves it," Leardi said. "My customers and I have all been extremely satisfied with the sonic results. The system is flexible, has plenty of power and headroom, and it's easy to use. Whether you fly it or ground-stack it, it simply does a great job. I'm really a very satisfied HK Audio user."
