d&b celebrates Chanel N°5 in China

d&b has provided systems for an exhibition to commemorate the centenary of the iconic Chanel N°5 scent. Chanel Correspondences – named after the French poet Baudelaire's sonnet, Correspondences, launched at the Shanghai West Bund Art Centre before embarking on an exhibition tour.

Eight d&b E4s have been deployed at the entrance of the exhibition, with four E6s and six E8s in Room Numero; 16 Y7Ps and four V-SUBs at the Espace Central Garden; 16 E6s in the Blue area; two E6s at Coco Mademoiselle; 11 E8s at Gabrielle; eight further E8s at Couloir Immersif, La Maison; and 51 E4s concealed in seat headrests in the movie area.

“The three-way passive V8 and V12 line array loudspeakers provide 80° and 120° horizontal dispersion respectively, maintained down to 250 Hz," said Mr Lai, project manager from Beijing Wenshengweixuan Stage Equipment Co, which provided the systems. "When used as a point source speaker, the V-Series with its rotatable HF horn can be installed vertically or horizontally. As the exhibition is in an open area, the directivity control and low weight sets the d&b V-series and Y-series loudspeakers apart. They also have the advantage of outstanding headroom, extraordinary power capacity, dynamic bandwidth and an extensive range of accessories.”
