This year AKD partnered with Purdue University to provide production for Faith Christian at the Tippecanoe County Fairgrounds.

At the beginning of the year AKD was asked to design and depoly a new sound system for Northeastern Alabama Community College. This week, design and system engineers, Kenny and Alan traveled to the great state of Alabama to install a new system in the Tom Bevill Lyceum. This install replaced a RCF point source system on the floor, and a Behringer x32 console. The new system consists of 16 JBL SRX 906 boxes flown in a LR configuration, 2 JBL SRX 906 front fills, 2 JBL SRX 928 subwoofers, a Yamaha DM7 console with CTL, and a Yamaha Rio 3224 stagebox.

The client was thrilled with how the installation turned out and was blown away with not only the systems output capabities but the smoothness of the coverage throughout the entirety of the seating plane at all SPL's. The new console and PA not only add a level of control and capability, but are outstanding teaching, learning, and performing tools for theatrical students that plan to be up and coming actors, band members, and technicians.

AKD is proud to have partnered with Northeastern Alabama Community College to help bring this performing arts center to the forefront here in Alabama.

Another major install done here in town. Matchbox Coworking Studio reached out to us to upgrade a barely functioning system that a previous “professional” installed for them. (Last 2 pictures are the previous installers work) We did a major overhaul installing a distributed system with multi-zone control, upgraded wireless system, increased I/O, power management, and cleaned up the rack!

Put in a nice upgrade and repair for Wabash College in Wabash, IN. They have upgraded to an ALLEN & HEATH SQ6 and stage box for their main performance theater. They will also use their QU16 as a monitor and FX console.

We also repaired 2 Crown XTi 4002s and 1 Crown 6002 XTi amp. After some quick programming and a SMAART tuning everything sounds great and they are ready for their next performance!
