The latest addition to the international Supperclub® group of dining and entertainment establishments recently opened in Hollywood, California. The venue features a flown, custom, five-way EAW® line array system that covers the dance floor and a smaller EAW system installed in the bar area. In addition, four EAW MicroWedges provide monitoring for DJs and guest music artists. Four EAW UX8800 four-channel digital signal processors manage the speaker systems, which are powered by Lab.gruppen amplification.

Sound designer and contractor Michael Lacina of San Francisco-based JK Sound specified a line array with substantial headroom in order to provide distortion-free coverage throughout the room and also to ensure longevity. “There are 16 compression drivers, 16 mid-range, 32 low-mid and 16 mid-bass drivers in the array, plus eight 21-inch drivers,” he notes. “A system that is going to be driven at dance club levels without any distortion, and a system that is going to run until 4 a.m. with zero maintenance issues, just has to be massive.”

Supperclub Los Angeles is located in the historic Vogue Theatre, a former movie house built…
