The Challenge

The numbers tell the story. The main stage stretched **60 meters wide**, with a performance zone extending 80 meters forward into the crowd. The audience area alone covered **12,000 square meters** (roughly the size of two football fields).

 The mission for LAX, the festival's exclusive sound reinforcement partner, was clear: deliver crystal-clear, impactful audio to every fan—from the barrier to the very back—without a single dead spot.

The LAX Solution

LAX responded with a customized, high-performance system designed for this specific terrain.

 Covering the Masses:

- Main System:64 × AT3212-V2 dual 12-inch line arrays (16 per side) powered the main left-right hangs.

- Low-End Power:30 × S218B dual 18-inch subwoofers (15 per side) delivered the chest-thumping bass that modern festivals demand.

- Fill & Uniformity: 12 × AT3212-V2 per side for side fill, plus 8 more for front fill, ensured that fans right at the lip of the stage got the same immersive experience as those in the middle of the 12,000m² field.

On-Stage Precision:

Performers weren't left out. With 22 × AT15M floor wedges lining the stage front and specialized side-fill monitor systems (AT208AN + ATL118B), the artists got tight, detailed mixes—crucial for the 600+ songs performed over the five days.

The Result

The online world took notice. The hashtag #Western Music Festival# soared past 9 million views on Weibo, and press coverage generated over 1.31 million Baidu news results.

But beyond the numbers and the technology, this festival cemented Dujiangyan's reputation as a world-class cultural tourism destination. And for LAX, it was another definitive statement: whether it's 60,000 or 500,000 fans, this is a brand that delivers dependable, intelligent, and powerful audio for China's biggest stages.
