MINNEAPOLIS, MN (PRWEB) July 13, 2005 -- Designing and building custom speaker enclosures is arguably the most creative and scientific art in the audio business. It requires the knowledge of physics (how many 50 ohm enclosures can you strap on to a 4000 watt power amp?), along with the craftsmanship to build a quality cabinet.
Bradford Thompson, Audio Engineer of 30 years, has designed a new series of speaker enclosures. Surprisingly compact while jammed with power, Bradford Enclosures" are ideal for concert touring, outdoor festivals, and large auditoriums. The cabinets include connecting slats for easy stacking, as well as welded brackets for safely hanging from a truss or beam. Coated with Road Armor, a poly-urethane spray, these cabinets are built to withstand the abuse of touring and weather.
An innovator in speaker enclosure design, Mr. Thompson also has extensive experience in national concert touring, live audio production, and studio recording. His new enclosures were recently featured at a concert event with Marc Cohn, whose hits include Walkin in Memphis", True Companion", and Silver Thunderbird", at the Heart & Soul Foundation fundraiser, held at Arizonas Restaurant & Lounge in Shakopee, Minnesota.
When asked how these experiences have impacted his designs, he says, "Over the past 10-15 years concert sound has gotten very technical sounding. Its lost the warmth, the drive, and the 'fat that made live concerts an awe-inspiring event. I wanted to reintroduce that sound back into the industry, so I designed the Bradford Enclosures" concert series touring systems. These are 2000 watt, 4000 watt, and yes, 8000 watt concert series, horn-loaded, enclosures. These enclosures are designed to slap you upside the head, without hurting your ears."
Says Mick Sterling, Sales/Creative Director for Bradford Entertainment, and Founder of A Festival of the Heart & Soul, Bradfords original designs drastically change peoples expectations of what is attainable in sound quality for outdoor festivals and live production. I thoroughly enjoy performing with this equipment on stage!"
Bradford Enclosures" are distributed by parent company, Bradford Entertainment, Inc. The company is currently planning a showcase event on September 26th at 7:00pm, which will be open to tour managers, technical directors, event planners, auditorium managers, festival directors and business owners.
