Philharmonie Luxembourg Concert Hall upgrades to L-Acoustics K3 concert sound system

In the international banking quarter of Kirchberg lies the Grande-Duchesse Joséphine-Charlotte Concert Hall, commonly known as The Luxembourg Philharmonie, designed by Christian de Portzamparc and opened in 2005. The Philharmonie hosts nearly 400 performances annually, including classical, jazz, world music, and more.

The venue’s programming versatility is mirrored in its fluctuating audience capacity, encompassing three performance spaces, including the principal Grande Auditorium which can accommodate anywhere from 400 to 1,500 spectators, depending on its configuration. As the demands of contemporary performance continue to evolve, so does the need for audio technology able to reinforce the variety of performances the Philharmonie hosts throughout the year. Therefore, the venue recently upgraded to a new L-Acoustics K3 concert sound system.

The Luxembourg Philharmonie and L-Acoustics share a long-standing relationship, with the venue already featuring an L-Acoustics dV-DOSC installation. In 2022, wishing to upgrade its sound system, L-Acoustics K3 was chosen during a competitive selection process. L-Acoustics Certified Provider Distributor Babbel & Haeger supported Luxembourg-based events management service provider Pro Musik during the installation process.

The system comprises two hangs of nine L-Acoustics K3 per side, with six KS21 subwoofers providing low-end extension, covering both the main floor and the balcony seating areas without obstructing sightlines. Near-fill is accomplished with two A10 Focus and two A10 Wide. Front-fill is handled by four X8, and the entire system is powered by LA4X amplified controllers. Calibration was managed by Sebastian Wittrock and Christian Schmid from L-Acoustics.
