EAW KF740 Line Arrays Supply Coverage For Large-Scale World Cup Fan Watch Venue In South Korea

EAW utilized on two of the three stages

The official cheering club of South Korean soccer, “The Red Devils,” named Seoul’s COEX Mall as its official 2010 FIFA World Cup cheer venue, and it was outfitted with LED screens, stages and sound reinforcement systems, one of them fronted by new EAW KF740 line arrays.

Elan Korea and TFOS Plus, two leading touring companies in Korea, called upon Chung-Bo Sound, EAW’s Korean distributor, to provide sound for the event.

“EAW was used on two of the three stages. We needed to provide an incredibly high-output system that could intelligibly broadcast play-by-play action to the sea of red-faced fans,” stated Hyungjoon Jee, General Manager for Chung-Bo Sound. “These EAW units delivered beautifully.”

To meet the demands, TFOS Plus used EAW KF740 line arrays, eight modules per side, all powered by EAW UX8800 digital processing.

Elan Korea, on another stage, deployed an EAW KF760 line array rig consisting of eight KF760’s per side (left and right) and six EAW BH760 bent horn subwoofers per side (left and right). They also used two EAW KF730 line array modules for center fill and 10 EAW SM84 monitors, all powered by 12 Lab.gruppen FP 1000Q amplifiers.

“Everyone doesn’t just watch the game on TV at home. They go out to the streets to support their teams as a family,” remarked Jee. “The attendees deserve great sound, and we are happy to service them with great EAW loudspeakers. Both Elan Korea and TFOS Plus are great fans of EAW and agree that the equipment is very easy to set-up, especially the KF740.”
