CHARLOTTE, NC – Club Marigny opened near the end of 2010, bringing the spirit of New Orleans to North Carolina with a sound system designed by Myron Surber, sales and design specialist at SE Systems. Surber used Ashly's 3.6SP signal processing and their new KLR series amplifiers.
"Above all, the club owners wanted a system that sounded awesome and was capable of breathtaking SPLs," said Surber. "When Ashly first introduced the KLR series, we A/B'd it with a bunch of other popular manufacturers. It sounded as good or better than units that cost more. It was that, coupled with my long experience working with Ashly and coming to trust their products and their support that cinched the deal. The KLR series amps could deliver the output and the sound quality, so I would have to make no apologies about its performance."
Marigny's sound system includes three Ashly KLR 3200 and two KLR 4000 amplifiers, each supplying two channels to power a stereo JBL Array Series 4892 and four EAW LA400 subwoofers. SoundTube surface-mount speakers cover the hallways and the lounging areas outside, whereas EAW VR61s cover the VIP area overlooking the main floor. Supplying brains for the brawn, an Ashly 3.6SP, three-input, six-output processor handles all input conditioning, routing, and output conditioning.
"All of Ashly's DSP units are predictable, robust, and comprehensive without being burdensome," said Surber. "The 3.6SP is simple to program. When I make a change, I can always hear it. And I also love the third input! It seems like a small thing, but it affords me all sorts of latitude to build a system that functions according to client requests."
