be fully achieved.
Despite the relatively low ceiling height of just 3.5-metres, which could have made it difficult to specify audio equipment, its rectangular shape meant that “we could easily compartmentalise certain things and make it operationally efficient as well,” said Godwin. “I’m a fan of EAW and have used its products before so I gave Gary Goh from Electronics & Engineering (E&E) a call. We sat down to throw a few ideas around along with Jason Tan, the sound designer. Jason gave us two options but we decided to go with the QX Series and the JF Series, which gave us the same amount of power output as the first option but with an increased amount of cabinets.” There are four EAW QX596I full range loudspeakers, one in each corner of the dancefloor and four EAW SB1001 double 18-inch sub- woofers, which deliver approximately 120-122dB on the dancefloor. Godwin said: “I like to try new things, so when Gary told me about the QX Series I knew I wanted to give it a go. We’re possibly the only venue in Singapore to install the QX Series into a club environment and push it to its full potential.” Eight EAW JF10 two-way loudspeakers have been positioned around the venue strategically to create a unison sound throughout.

said: “You don’t have to be on the dancefloor to feel the punch, you can get that anywhere because those main fills give 100-05dB, creat- ing a really good balance.” In the main lounge area, where smaller fills would have been the obvious choice, Godwin opted for two EAW SB150ZP 15-inch subwoofers flown from the ceiling. And for DJ monitoring a pair of EAW LA212 compact loudspeakers and a single EAW SB150ZP subwoofer are in place.
Powering the system is a selection of Powersoft amplifiers, four M20D amplifiers, one M30D amplifier and one M14D amplifier. The M Series is lightweight and compact with all models housed in 1RU. Two Powersoft K8 amplifiers, two K6 amplifiers and one K2 amplifier complete the line-up, these too are compact in size but offer higher efficiency due to their switch mode technology. “I knew about Power- soft amplifiers and it just so happened E&E carried the brand so it was like a match made in heaven. I was like a little boy in a candy store as E&E had a lot of the equipment that I wanted, it’s a configuration that I’m very pleased with,” commented Godwin. Two EAW UX3600 processors and one Ashly Protea 3.6SP loud- speaker processor were also supplied by E&E. The latter loudspeaker management system features three inputs and six outputs offering
