The AFM Fountain of Life Church in the tropical garden town of Tzaneen, South Africa, recently played host to the Tzaneen Pastors Fraternal Worship Conference. Audio clarity at such events is an essential element of proceedings, something which on this occasion might have proved challenging given that the venue was approaching the end of a renovation project. Although the work was almost concluded, the interior had not yet benefitted from carpets or any form of acoustic treatment.
The Conference enlisted the services of audio rental specialists Mbhetse Productions, who deployed HH Electronics TNA Line Array to deliver the necessary power and clarity for the combination of spoken word and music ensemble presentations.
Launched earlier this year, the TNA line array was designed for a wide range of small to medium sized applications and is based around the TNA-2120SA, a multi-channel active subwoofer with integrated Class D amplifier which features two high power 12” low frequency woofers with exceptionally high output, and the TNA1800SA a powerful single 18” active low frequency subwoofer. With three channels of high performance amplification, the TNA-2120SA houses six cutting edge built-in DSP presets and as part of a modular system can power up to six satellite TNA-2051 passive, two-way compact line array loudspeakers, offering an ideal solution that does away with the extra expense of rack amplifiers and processors.
For front of house, Mbhetse Productions deployed a ground-stacked configuration comprising (per side) one TNA-1800S, one TNA-2120SA and four TNA 2051, with TRE-1201 units used for stage monitoring.
According to Chimmy Machimana, the front of house sound engineer for the event: “The HH Electronics TNA Line Array blew me away. The sound was crystal clear with a very punchy low end, and the coverage was impressive. More impressive is what we were able to achieve in a room with very challenging acoustics.”
Pat Malungani, Owner of Mbhetse Productions was pleased with the positive feedback he received about the HH system and had a special mention for the TRE-1201 monitors: “The clarity of the monitors was pristine, even in such a challenging acoustic environment. We used the TRE-1201 units as monitors for the presenter and lead vocalist with exceptional results.”
Justin Acres, Director at ApexPro, HH Electronics distributor for South Africa added: “The HH Electronics system was a standout at the Tzaneen Pastors Fraternal Worship Conference. It’s a powerful tool that can elevate any worship experience and is sure to impress anyone who hears it. We’re excited by the overwhelmingly positive response to the brand in the region and are confident that our efforts to support our local retail partners to promote it will yield great results.”
