UK - Harman Pro UK reports the completion of a prestigious PA installation at North London live music venue, Koko. The Camden venue has added to its Harman inventory this month, choosing a JBL VerTec line array driven by Crown iTech amplifiers to achieve a comprehensive upgrade of its sound system.

16 JBL VT4888 mid-size line array elements have been installed by Camden based electrical contractors RAG Support, as part of the upgrade of the venue's sound system with a view to provide full, even coverage throughout the venue. To complete the latest Harman package, iTech 4000 and 6000 amplifiers from sister company Crown were also chosen.

Tim Hamper, head sound engineer at Koko, explains the decision: "Buildings of this age are often irregular shapes, which is part of their charm. When it comes to setting up an audio system however, this has its drawbacks as the sound can be lost in some areas, severely affecting the output. We have chosen the JBL line array system specifically to combat this."
