Bremer Media & Events steps up with Martin Audio Torus

Bremer Media & Events, an AV rental company based in Rotterdam, Netherlands, has bolstered its audio inventory with the acquisition of a flexible Martin Audio Torus sound system. As technical experts for a diverse range of large-scale events and co-managers of the Onderzeebootloods venue in Rotterdam - a former submarine wharf - Bremer required a solution that could meet the demands of a vast industrial venue while remaining agile enough for more intimate deployments.

Bremer is not a traditional rental house. Since their recent acquisition of FrameWave, the company has shifted focus to provide creative event design and technical support - from idea to technical execution. “We offer a very broad range of services, where AV is an essential part of the bigger picture”, says Rick van der Vegt, Operations Director, Bremer Media & Events. “Our ambition with the Martin Audio investment was to be less dependent on the rental market. We were looking for a scalable sound system, capable of handling large-scale events.”

The search for the ideal solution for their needs began two years ago, through a referral to Ampco Flashlight Rental, Martin Audio’s distributor in the Netherlands. “Bremer decided it was time for the next step”, recalls Martijn de Jong of Ampco Flashlight Sales. “Previously, they often had to rent equipment for larger jobs but wanted their own scalable, high-end audio under their management.”

Rick van der Vegt attended several demo events at Ampco Flashlight’s studio in Utrecht to put the Torus system through its paces. Bremer’s inventory now comprises six T1215 and two T1230 constant curvature array elements, eight SXC118 cardioid subwoofers, and six FP12 FlexPoint loudspeakers, all powered by five iKon IK42 4-channel amplifiers. “Depending on the brief, Torus allows for a powerful front-facing array or a distributed system across a wide area”, says van der Vegt. “We can now facilitate small festivals with confidence.”

The system has seen immediate action, ranging from events as diverse as corporate meetings at the Onderzeebootloods, to the Rotterdam Marathon. De Jong concludes: “Whether it’s a high-impact DJ set, a live band, or a business conference, the combination of Torus T1215 and T1230 cabinets ensures dispersion and impact are always as desired.”
