L-Acoustics

L-Acoustics makes professional sound systems for performance spaces. Its presence here is in concert-room reinforcement rather than a venue’s separate domestic hi-fi system.

Design & approach

L-Acoustics was founded by Christian Heil around the application of physics to shared listening experiences. Alongside loudspeakers, its work includes system-design tools such as Soundvision. This wider engineering approach matters in installations where audience coverage, speaker placement and control are as important as the choice of cabinet.

Inside the system

Tempo assigns different systems to its rooms. The Living area pairs Altec Model 15 speakers with McIntosh MC2205 amplification; the Bar combines Tannoy FSM II speakers with two Accuphase M100 monoblocks. The listening room uses Altec Valencia 846B speakers and a McIntosh MC2205. The concert room has a separate PA comprising two L-Acoustics 112P speakers and two 18-inch DAS subwoofers. A Bozak AR-4 rotary is also part of the inventory. The distinction between the vintage listening systems and live-performance PA is fundamental to the venue’s layout.
