Fashioned after its famed New York namesake, Hong Kong’s Times Square is a multi-storey office tower complex and shopping plaza in the heart of the city’s bustling Causeway Bay district. The ‘vertical mall’ brings a decidedly different slant to retail design, hosting its retail space over nine floors, including fashion outlets and food stores, restaurants, cinemas and specialty shops.
The street-level open plaza is one of the area’s main gathering points, and also home to Western-style New Year’s Eve celebrations, as well as a year-round calendar of events and exhibitions. Accordingly, the plaza is equipped with large video displays as part of the growing Urban Screen trend, with powerful, focused audio provided by loudspeakers form Fulcrum Acoustic.
Installed by Sony Corporation of Hong Kong, a pair of Fulcrum Acoustic AH463 full-range coaxial horn systems covers one screen, with two DX1295 dual 12-inch coaxial systems covering the second, larger display. Symetrix DSP units provide the system processing, while Lab.gruppen amplification drives the system.
