The key to this project is the sound experience created by the Italian sound system of the Pavilion, that complements the visual design and its commitment to sustainability, since it is made with two million recycled plastic bottles. The system is powered by 25 Powersoft amplifiers supplied by PRO Lab, company distributor in GCC countries and Lebanon, and installed by the local system integrator Sibca.

Two of the five amplifiers Quattrocanali 2404 DSP+D are used in the main auditorium and restaurant areas, while three others are in the first hull, the white space and the Skywalk (offering visitors a panoramic view of the Pavilion from a 11 metre). two Quattrocanali 1204 DSP+D, the little brother of the 2404 of 1.200 W, are installed in the FS Tunnel, in collaboration with FS Italiane (Italian State Railways – Italian State Railways).

Four Mezzo 322 AD feed the Belvedere, an area that offers a 360° projection of some of Italy's most famous landscapes, and four others on Teatro della Memoria, where the replica of the five-meter David is installed. Otro 322 AD is installed in the lounge.

Five Mezzo 602 AD, for his part, boost the VIP meeting room, the education laboratory, the head office and cafeteria, as well as joining forces with the Quattrocanali 1204 DSP+D in the FS Tunnel.

But there is another lesser-known industry., but equally excellent, that should and deserves to be valued. All research and development activities, production, technical assistance, marketing, sales, Logistics and warehouse are in our Florence center and in the production plants in Italy. This allows us to control the entire chain from start to finish, ensuring process optimization, quality and responsiveness to the needs of the Market", Says Carlo Lastrucci, President of Powersoft.
