Having stuck an agreement to act as Clair Brothers new distribution partner in Spain, VTècnics has upgraded its touring PA to the new Clair C12 system and wasted no time putting it to the test.
An internationally profiled event, the Moto Grand Prix World Championship saw VTècnics called on for the first time to provide full production of this historic event in Spain. ‘We’re honoured to have been selected for the 2017 celebration of the winner of the Moto GP championship, as rider Marc Marquez from our home country of Spain,’ notes VTècnics stage systems engineer, Juan Carlos Álvarez.
When the time came for the racer’s championship speech, the wireless microphone system and C12 system itself performed beyond expectation, delivering a powerfully clean sound to the audience. ‘Events like this come with unique challenges, and it’s always best when our equipment works at the height of its potential,’ Álvarez says. ‘Which is what the C12 does – like a champion.’
For the event celebration, VTècnics hung four C12 speakers on each side of the stage, three of which with a 90º horizontal coverage pattern and the fourth bottom speaker at 120º. The audience area was not vast but was crowded with thousands of Marquez fans and the noise of the motorbikes, so for additional coverage in an effort to further overcome the background din, two Clair Brothers iS218s were positioned under the C12s on both sides.
