Haycom Staging, the Australian based Audio Visual and Multi Media Events Production Company have recently invested in 10 units of the new ARX EQ260 Dual Channel Graphic Equaliser to add their already extensive ARX Inventory of over 60 ARX EQ 60s.
Supplied by Roger Clapton at ARX Dealer CC's Light & Sound Pty Ltd the EQ 260s have been put into service at Haycom's Melbourne, Sydney & Brisbane Offices.
Established for over 28 years Haycom specialise in providing presentation solutions to Australia's top 100 blue chip companies including Telstra and the National Australia Bank.
The new EQ 260 comprises two ultra low noise 1/3rd Octave EQ channels featuring 30 new Extended Resolution long throw, centre grounding faders, switchable to either ±15dB or ±6dB, for the ideal combination of high fader resolution and maximum cut and boost. A protective dust & moisture cover is also fitted to each fader.
As well, there is a Gain recovery control with up to +10 dB of gain; a Clip LED to indicate circuit overload, a sweepable 20-200Hz High Pass filter, and an IN/OUT hardwire bypass switch which removes the EQ260 completely from the signal path.

 ARX SPLs gateway to the world of 5.1 Sound.
With origins dating back to the early 17th Century and almost 40,000 students the University of Hamburg is Germany's fifth largest University and prides itself as Germany's "Gateway to the world of Science".
As part of the Universities ongoing refurbishment program ARX's German Distributor ShowService GmbH has now completed the supply and installation of two new Audio Systems for the Universities "E.S.A B" and "A.S" Auditoriums.

The 5.1 Audio System in the cavernous "ESA B" Auditorium comprises 5 units of SPL 12 Self Powered Loudspeaker providing Left Centre Right and Stereo Surround program and 1 unit of SPL 18 Self Powered Sub Woofer for low frequency reinforcement. 1 unit of SPL 8H compact self powered loudspeaker was installed in the lecturers desk as a listen monitor / foldback monitor.
In the less vast "AS" Auditorium a smaller 5.1 System was installed comprising 5 units of SPL 8H compact self powered loudspeaker and 1 unit of SPL 18 Self Powered Sub Woofer for low frequency enhancement.

According to Showservice's Bertin Krompass "The University could only provide a very small installation window due to their busy academic schedule. With their minimal cabling requirements and flexible flying options the ARX SPL series were the ideal choice for the required fast installation turnaround. The SPL generated 5.1 soundfields have impressed all those involved, the new systems sound very warm and accurate".

Hamburg University now features two gateways to ARX's popular SPL range of Powered Loudspeaker Systems.
