Cirque du Soliel sound system

Post by jkeny »

I was at the show last night & was very pleased with the sound in the notorious Point Threatre. First time I have liked the sound in that venue. Looking it up, the sound is provided by Meyer sound, I believe http://www.meyersound.com/news/2006/delirium/

They had some subs that went thunderously & cavernously deep but also the mids & highs were crystal clear & intelligible (even though the songs were in French/Spanish, I think :)?). That intelligibility is a first in my experience at this venue. I see that Leonard Cohen is not playing the Point again this year, choosing Kilmainham instead. I wonder if it has anything to do with the disaster experience in his audio/video system at the point last time I saw him there?

Has anybody else seen the Cirque & noted their sound system?

Good entertainment - a kind of futuristic & baroque theatrical event!

My wife was at that show last night.... she didn't mention the sound. Just that the contortionists weren't natural at all at all. I'll ask.

Yea, it looked like they were two japanese girls - couldn't tell where one ended & the other began :)

That's what I heard. "That's not right!" was also said.

I couldn't help but thinking "naughty" thoughts when watching them - so I went to the bold corner!!

There'd be something wrong with you if you didn't!

I know, I met a lot of other males in the "bold corner" having cold drinks!
