Martin Audio supports Centenary Celebration of Wuping No. 1 Middle School

Recently, Wuping No. 1 Middle School in China’s Hubei Province celebrated its 100th anniversary, during which it has adhered to a philosophy of "cultivating people with moral integrity and all‐ round development".

To mark the occasion, a special Forever Azalea concert was performed in the concert hall of the newly built Science and Art Museum. Martin Audio's signature sound and consistent coverage created a stunning live atmosphere for the concert, which the school is seeing as a new starting point.

Going forward, this auditorium will be used for a variety of concerts and operas, as well as other cultural and artistic activities, including major conferences, with the new Martin Audio TORUS providing precise coverage, sound consistency and scalability.

In the early stages of the project design, the technical team used Martin Audio's proprietary DISPLAY3 predictive software to model coverage, sound propagation characteristics and other factors. This simulation provided the optimum solution.

The left and right hangs comprise the classic TORUS constant curvature array, to provide excellent bandwidth and clarity. Each hang consists of six T1215 and a pair of T1230 array speakers—the former providing an SPL of up to 134dB (6dB), and the latter an SPL of up to 132dB (6dB). It comfortably meets all live performance requirements.

TORUS constant curvature cabinets have two vertical angles of 15° and 30°, with a coverage distance of up to 30 meters and capacity to manually adjust horizontal dispersion coverage patterns for additional flexibility.

In order to enhance LF extension, two Martin Audio SXCF118 18in cardioid subwoofers have been installed in combination with the TORUS T12 array.

With its cardioid directivity, compact footprint and high energy output characteristics, the SXCF118 provides ultimate LF energy.

The off‐stage fill comprises Martin Audio FlexPoint coaxial point sound source, with the FP12 delivering the sound image with accuracy as required, at the different listening points.
