Solution One can be proud to count among its loyal partners Mr. Sami Sidhom PRO AUDIO & LIGHT who, with his 20 employees, provides sound for all types of events and major international productions.
Sami recently acquired the latest generation of the EVO series. If we ask him why he remains loyal, he explains for its audio qualities and more for its ease of use for particularly demanding traveling installations: “The trend is towards small capacities, evenings of 500 to 600 people: we have a lot of requests in this niche. So we opted for an EVO X system to meet them. We also have a lot of requests, especially from a Swiss agency that makes promotional videos of DJs. They generally go to the desert and always demand Funktion-One”.
Under his affable and good-natured demeanor, hides a passionate audiophile, but above all a demanding technician who, far from lapsing into self-satisfaction, is more interested in the calculations, performances and qualities of the equipment whose limits he likes to test. If he has just enriched his equipment fleet with 1700m2 EVO X, he was able to test and try out the previous generations: a loyalty to the series that leads us to question him on the capacities and uses he was able to have of them.
Responsible for a club of 1500 people now and festivals, he was able to welcome DJs of modest renown such as Carl Cox, Van Buuren, Tiesto, Sven Vath and David Guetta, .. For the sound system of his club, he turned to Funktion-One systems and it is not by chance: "It's simple: the sound is natural: for clubbing it is essential. We tried all the other systems and our competitors tried everything. F1 remains the number 1! We do not intervene electronically, no fuss for the settings. the sound remains stable, rich without imbalance ”
Beyond stability and robustness, we ask him why he remains loyal to the brand. His answer is immediate: “Listening, listening, listening! The sound is truly unique: it has nothing to do with other systems. When you are in front of the F1 you can stay for 10-12 hours listening to music and you like it! When we compare to other systems some, hold together for 3 seconds, for others we observe problems after 2-3 hours… they're all over the place… On the other hand, with the Funktion One it remains stable and you can stay for 15-16 hours enjoying the sound,as you like it.“.
Refusing any form of self-promotion, Sami invites us to Tunisia, to listen to Funktion-One and eat bambaloni at the end of the evening! How can we refuse? For us it’s a given…
