Terry Lewis, director of Void Acoustics, commented:
"We were hoping for great things following the launch of the Stasys X wide-band sub, but Stasys Series' rapid rise in popularity exceeded our expectations - it even caught us a bit by surprise, although we have now re-scheduled our production in order to meet demand. It is great for an audio manufacturer to see the sonic and technological benefits of a product translate into sales so quickly, and we are obviously delighted with the response. Whether as a touring or installed system, it reflects our design ethos of delivering a better result from fewer boxes, and at an extremely competitive cost-quality price point. Seems like our customers have noticed this too!”

Void’s Stasys X wide-band sub, features in Ninetwentyfive’s installation at Club 2k in Penzance, Cornwall. The sub uses five resonant chambers to extend the ground-shaking response down to 35Hz, while maximising both efficiency and long-throw projection. Ninetwentyfive’s Swenson Kearey commented:

“Club 2k previously had a 10-enclosure system in its main room that was not delivering the desired results. The club has a capacity for just 800 people, and is built inside what amounts to a concrete cube, located within a 200-year old grain warehouse. The club’s structure needs considerable bottom end to get things moving, and the new Stasys X sub proved absolutely ideal. The upshot is that we’ve replaced the older 10-box system, from another manufacturer, with just five Void enclosures – a single Stasys X sub, one pair of Impulse 3t mid-highs, plus a pair of Void Mycro 10 units as delays. That’s a very simple system, but it delivers far more than the club has ever experienced before – a stunning result from such a few boxes. Personally, I think these Void designs are probably far better than even Void claim themselves! In Club 2k, they are generating uniform chest compression across the dance floor, delivering excellent results for the club’s mix of hard-core dance, reggae, drum & bass, and live rock. After the success of this system, we are planning on acquiring a Void-based touring rig, for the live-events rental side of our business.”

Void Acoustics has also supplied Stasys touring systems to JHA Entertainment in Bedford, and Essex-based events management specialist, GHB Hire. Adam Green, of GHB, said:

“Our company handles live events and productions all over the world, so product quality and survivability are critical requirements. We have had an older Void system for some five years now, and they have more than proved their reliability. We wanted to add the benefit of the Stasys Series to our inventory – quite simply, they produce more power, and a better sound, from fewer cabinets. This obviously makes touring a system far easier, especially with the convenience of flying or ground-stacking the enclosures. Two mid-highs, for example, fit on a Euro-pallet, making transport much easier, illustrating just how well thought-out they are from the practical point of view as well. We now have four stacks of the Stasys 3.2 mid-highs, plus four stacks of the Stays X sub – and this is sufficient for very large events. You can only have one brand that is first in the quality stakes, and in my opinion, that is definitely Void!”

Waveform – Void’s Latest Composition

Void Acoustics, designer and manufacturer of advanced professional audio systems for the installed and live-sound markets, reports that its Waveform System is now in production, with the first installations already scheduled.  Launched at PLASA 2007, the sophisticated Waveform System continues the company’s radical design direction, combining sculptural aesthetics with technical innovation, and is intended as a perfect fit – sonically and visually – with sophisticated club and night-venue interiors.

Featuring a dynamically sculptured form, the Waveform 10 is constructed from composite fibreglass-kevlar and incorporates a high performance 10” LF and a 1.5” exit HF transducer.  Its compact design makes it ideally suited for operation as a full-range system in smaller venues, and for infill or monitoring applications, and it can be operated in conjunction with the Waveform S bass when extra low-end weight is required for larger clubs and dance floors.

The Waveform S sets a new standard in visual aesthetics and sonic performance.  Its pure form of sweeping curves is derived from the internal 2.5-metre folded horn, which enables the system to provide low-frequency extension down to 34Hz, with the specially designed 12” drive unit providing faster response and upper-bass punch compared to the heavier cones of larger transducers.  The unique shape and scale of the Waveform S enclosure enables it to be easily incorporated into club interiors – as seating units, due to its low height, or as booth and zone dividers.

Both Waveform products can be supplied in any colour or finish, to suit interior designers’ specifications and ensure the optimum integration with a venue’s image.  Terry Lewis, director of Void Acoustics, commented:

“We have had a great market response since Waveform’s PLASA debut, and the system has created significant interest from interior designers, venue owners and installers alike.  The first projects are already scheduled for several venues, including London clubs.  The designs would not look out of place as art installations in a contemporary gallery and, with style given equal priority to leading-edge audio performance, these new products continue the visual-and-technical innovations of our Air, Static and Axsys systems.”
