BULLETIN DELTA LIVE MAKES KEY DEPLOYMENTS Delta Live has underlined its position at the forefront of live sound with investments in audio systems that have been deployed across some of the UK’s most iconic live events and venues. The BBC Proms, Edinburgh Fringe Festival and London’s Roundhouse are all beneficiaries of the company’s investment in 2025, which has seen a range of new equipment, audio systems and vital infrastructure deployed across the venues. PRECISE AUDIO FOR MICHIGAN CHURCH Situated in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Christ the King was initiated in 1981 as a Catholic ‘Charismatic Renewal’ church. The current church building was dedicated in 2001. The church was still operating off its original sound system, which was struggling to provide even coverage across three naves, fanning out from a central space. It was deemed necessary that a system with a higher degree of control was essential. As a result, Martin Audio’s smallest Wavefront Precision footprint, WPM, was installed in three L/C/R clusters of six elements in each, along with three SXC118 cardioid subwoofers. NEW SYSTEM FOR ICONIC HALL The 2150-seat Henry Le Bœuf Hall now boasts its first-ever permanent sound system: a cutting-edge L-Acoustics L-ISA Hyperreal sound installation featuring the high-performance L Series. It promises to redefine live music experiences in one of Europe’s most prestigious venues. LEGRAND SETS UP SHOP IN MINNESOTA Legrand AV officially opened its new headquarters in Minnetonka, Minnesota on 1 October. The opening of the new location is a milestone in the company’s growth and commitment to invention, collaboration and community. The headquarters, located at 10900 Red Circle Drive, joins multiple functions into a single location with a flexible and sustainable workplace designed to foster innovation.

requirements provided the perfect testing ground for Spectera’s capabilities, with the system’s performance far surpassing all expectations. Sound designer, Gareth Fry, explained the unique demands of the production: “It’s a massive venue. Everywhere is a stage, everywhere is an audience space. The performances and the audience are mingling with each other, and that was one of the key points of the show – to create that immersive effect.”
Secret Cinema’s production of Grease at Evolution London has showcased Sennheiser’s revolutionary Spectera wideband wireless system in a major UK deployment.
