Get It In Writing

DURBAN, South Africa – South African Harman Professional distributor Wild Marr equipped World Cup venue Moses Mabhida Stadium with Harman gear including AKG, BSS Audio, Crown, JBL and Soundcraft components.

The
70,000-capacity venue hosted five group games, one second round game and a
semi-final match during the World Cup. The venue is named after Moses Mabhida,
a former General Secretary of the South African Communist Party. The stadium's design includes an arch,
which represents the once divided nation of South Africa coming together.

The
installed gear list includes 74
Crown I-Tech 4000, 36 I-Tech 8000 and 33 CTs 4200USP/CN amplifiers. BSS Audio
gear handles signal processing, with three BLU-800 devices, eight BLU-160
devices and six BLU-320 devices. Soundcraft RM100 series consoles handle audio
mixing.

Wild
Marr also provided 118 VerTec VT4888 midsize line array elements, 36 JBL
AM6315 loudspeakers and over 1,400 Control 24 CT Micro and 100 Control 25AV
ceiling speakers. Control and configuration of the system was completed through
Harman HiQnet System Architect.

In
the area leading into the stadium complex, commonly referred to as Peoples
Park, 32 JBL CBT100LA column speakers are powered by five Crown CTS8200USP3/CN,
with sound processing handled by a BSS BLU-800 device. The area also features a
dedicated Soundcraft RM100 console and AKG microphones.

The
World Cup is a global event that transcends the way
we view sports, said Marc Kellom, vice president of marketing for Crown Audio.
Our CTs amplifiers provide unmatched performance and reliability, setting the
standard for the biggest stadiums in the world and the World Cup was no
exception.
