L-Acoustics is a name you may not be familiar with, but it carries serious pedigree in the audio world. If you've ever visited the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, the Alexandra Palace, O2 Brixton Academy, and Eventim Apollo in London, or the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris to name a small few, you’ll have experienced L-Acoustic’s speakers – most likely the long black stack in a J shape hanging either side of the artist on stage.
L-Acoustics was founded in 1984 after founder Christian Heil, a particle physicist, attended a Pink Floyd concert and decided to combine his field of study with his passion for acoustics. This led in 1992 to L-Acoustics revolutionising the line speaker array concept with its V-DOSC system to better quality and more consistent sound across all frequencies without interference – something vital for live concert settings.
