L-Acoustics guarantees the operation of its showroom with Van Damme

The exhibition hall of L-Acoustics in London has as its connection core the French manufacturer's state-of-the-art cabling infrastructure Van Damme, that drives audio, Seamless video and lighting.

Located in the Highgate area of London, the L-Acoustics showroom not your typical demo space, but almost an 'amusement park'’ for him sound and creativity of all the professionals who visit it.

Equipped with Hyriss technology (hyperreal immersive sound space), This space has been a success with visitors, whether they have come to test and listen to the manufacturer's equipment like to attend the big variety of events that are organized, as exclusive album listening sessions, live performances, cinema evenings or immersive art installations.

Behind the scenes, The possibilities offered by this L-Acoustics space are based on something that most people never notice: he cabling. The engineering team needed a infrastructure that could offer audio, video and lighting impeccable and without interruptions, a hidden backbone to make it all work provided by the manufacturer Van Damme.

“Hybrid products needed a flexible infrastructure,” explains Kevin Groom, applications engineer at Showroom Solutions and one of the main people responsible for the creation of this space-. Any activity, whether cinema, fashion show, ballet the show, it had to work in the room. We designed it so that it could be support every use case imaginable without the need to make modifications”.

This meant creating a Complete network of connection points in two rooms; preparing for the future was also crucial, “we had to plan for products we didn't know yet. For example, the DJ tables that we now connect directly to the central rack to make L-Acoustics DJ demos. That flexibility is built into the wiring.”, Groom adds..

When choosing a cable supplier, there were no doubts, as Groom remembers: “we wanted a solution for all our wiring needs: audio, video, lighting and power. Van Damme covered the 75% of our requirements directly with your catalog. It is a reference, “the best in the sector”.

Proximity also played a role. The cable manufacturer's headquarters are located just minutes from L-Acoustics Creative Hub, and Kentish Town, what makes the logistics is efficient and sustainable.

“Even sustainability was important. Why send cables from abroad when the best in the business are right around the corner? -cuestiona Groom-. If we forgot something, It was a five minute trip.. “This responsiveness saved us weeks of delays”.

The results speak for themselves. In less than a year, space has welcomed more than five hundred high-level demonstrations for global customers and distribution partners, without a single fault caused by wiring.

“It is about mission critical rooms. We host demonstrations for very important people who examine every detail. “We have never had a demo fail due to wiring.”, emphasizes this responsible.

Para L-Acoustics, Choosing Van Damme meant ensuring the invisible infrastructure was up to par with Hyriss technology. “We are a company that prioritizes engineering,” says Groom.. I am an electronic engineer, I know the proper connections and how important they are for the sound, and they offer us exactly that: the best versions available for our needs”.

The narrow collaboration and flexibility They have also strengthened the partnership between both companies. “Van Damme has provided us with incredible support with the inevitable changes that come with a project as complex as this., adapting to our specific business needs. “They have done wonders to keep everything moving forward.”.
