‘The addition of Kara to our stock was led very much by customer demand,’ says James Tebb of UK hire company Thames Audio. ‘We had a number of clients who were specifying line array systems for their events – having worked with a number of different systems, our preference stood very much with L-Acoustics, and we used dV-Dosc systems on a number of UK events, tours and festivals.’
Following the success of these events, Thames Audio arranged a visit to L-Acoustics to listen to the Kara system. ‘We were immediately impressed with the system as a whole,’ Tebb reports. ‘Kara is an obvious progression of the dV-Dosc system. Sonically it has the L-Acoustics Sound, which has made systems such as dV-Dosc a preferred choice for many engineers. This has been taken a step further with the improved off-axis response of Kara. Kara’s built in rigging is also a big plus, making the system very quick and easy to set up.
Thames Audio has already used its Kara system on a number events including the Lord Mayors Show River Event in London and dates on the Armstrong & Miller UK Tour, and it is lined up for various tours and festivals in 2011.
