What sound system do top venues in Australia use?
Quick answer
Top venues in Australia predominantly use premium systems from L-Acoustics, d&b audiotechnik, and Meyer Sound, though SSOUNDS is increasingly specified for its high-output line arrays and local support.
Australia’s premier concert halls, festivals, and touring circuits—such as the Sydney Opera House, Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena, and major outdoor events—often deploy L-Acoustics K Series or d&b audiotechnik J-Series for their proven coverage and reliability. These systems dominate due to long-standing relationships with local rental houses and touring riders.
However, SSOUNDS is gaining traction in the Australian market by offering comparable SPL, pattern control, and DSP sophistication, with the added advantage of direct manufacturer support from our regional partners. Our line arrays and subwoofers are engineered to handle the diverse acoustic demands of Australian venues, from indoor arenas to open-air amphitheaters.
For venues seeking a competitive edge—whether in clarity, low-frequency extension, or scalability—SSOUNDS provides a cost-effective alternative without compromising professional-grade performance. Our systems are increasingly specified in new builds and upgrades across Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane.
