VHD5 Sound System Delivers Unmatched Audio Experience at Oasis Ball 2024

The client’s brief for the Oasis Ball was clear: deliver the highest quality audio for an audience of over 1,200 pax, ensuring that speeches—crucial for the night’s fundraising efforts—were heard clearly over the lively crowd. With proceeds supporting The Salvation Army’s WA Youth Services, the importance of clear communication during speeches and auctions could not be overstated.

In a collaboration between Entour Production Group, led by Matthew Pountney, and Super Live Productions, led by Kane Pountney, the VHD5 system was selected to meet and exceed these high expectations. The setup included a single VHD5.0 mid-hi module along with 2x VHD8.10 low-mid cabinets, a VHD5.1 downfill per side, and 8x double 21” subwoofers. This configuration provided seamless coverage and unrivaled speech intelligibility across the vast ballroom, ensuring every word resonated clearly with the audience.

As the evening transitioned from formalities to festivities, with DJ Wildflower taking the stage, the VHD5 system truly came to life. The system’s headroom allowed for powerful, distortion-free sound that energized the dance floor, proving once again why the VHD5 is regarded as one of the most robust and versatile sound systems available.

The 2024 Oasis Ball, co-hosted by former Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop and 9News Perth’s Tracy Vo, raised significant funds for The Salvation Army’s initiatives, particularly Oasis House in Mirrabooka. The event not only celebrated the achievements of the local advertising community but also reinforced the impact of quality sound in making events memorable and successful.

Key credits go to DGPR, The Salvation Army, OMG Events, Crown Perth, DJ Wildflower, Entour Production Group, and Super Live Productions for their roles in making this year’s Oasis Ball an unforgettable night.
