Dimension Audio Steps Up to Next Level with Electro-Voice

Dimension Audio, the specialist PA company within the publicly-listed Avesco Group, has signalled its intention to advance up the league of PA companies with the purchase of a new Electro-Voice XLC compact line-array system.
Dimension will also become one of the first customers in the UK to take delivery of the new XLC127DVX cabinets, featuring all-new drive units. Dimension's order includes EV 215 and X-subs, and a number of the new Tour Grade Series amplifiers, launched a few months ago.
Located within the Crawley HQ of parent company Creative Technology, Dimension is solidly established as a unique resource within the Avesco Group, and now expanding into other market areas. Head of audio Mark Boden explains the reasons behind the purchase: "As a PA provider, we wanted to expand our services to cater for larger events, particularly targeting the live music sector. The XLC system, whilst suiting our needs now, is easy to expand. XLC is priced competitively which allows us to be competitive as we build up our business in new areas as well as consolidating in the corporate events market."
Boden explains that, "we already have line array cabinets in our inventory, but the decision was taken to add Electro-Voice XLC after a very persuasive demo by Shuttlesound! It is easy to rig, and interconnects very nicely, and, because it is so scalable, we can effectively add more cabinets to the system as the workload increases".
