DURBAN, SOUTH AFRICA — Kingston Sound, a South African provider of live event production, recently supplied stage production, lighting and sound for the Women's Day Event held at Kingsmead Cricket Stadium in Durban, located on the eastern coast of South Africa. The company used JBL VerTec VT4888 line array enclosures to provide the audio. Kingston Sound has recently undergone a transformation. After a decade servicing live bands and cultural music festivals in KwaZulu Natal (KZN), Brett Kingsland, owner/manager of Kingston Sound, decided to invest in new sound reinforcement gear.
Kingston Sound is constantly upgrading its system. The company's latest additions have included Crown I-Tech power amplifiers, as well as new AKG performance microphones, all sourced from South African professional audio equipment distributor Wild and Marr.
The system at the Women's Day Event was composed of 16 VerTec VT4888 line array elements and eight VT4880 line array subwoofers (eight VT4888s and four VT4880s per side). Additionally, 12 VRX932 portable line array elements were used as side fills. Crown I-Tech amplifiers powered the system.
