18th Jan '08 ]  Product Focus

H-I-Q Deutschland GmbH, an EAW wholesaler in Duisburg (Germany), recently delivered the material for installation of six EAW commercial VR21 for the new sound reinforcement system in Hall 7 of the Congress Center of ThyssenKrupp Steel AG in Duisburg.

The installation required the EAW VR21's to be mounted off the building’s girder structure at a height of 5 meters above the floor.

H-I-Q used a combination of six Powerdrive GDR 1-200 girder brackets - to provide a secure attachment to the girder - from which ZA 120 drop tube brackets were fitted to position the speaker approximately 0.5M below.

Meridian Hi-Fi / Home Theatre Support
26th Jun '07 ]  Product Focus

We have discovered that some Meridian Hi-Fi owners have been using Powerdrive brackets to support Meridian's DSP 33 Digital Active Loudspeakers.

Although Meridian note that “The DSP33 is heavy for its size”, compared to others speakers we support from the sound-reinforcement sector they are positively light-weight! As such, users have access to many Powerdrive brackets: from the diminutive wall-mounted WME 75 to the larger WHH 75 or the ceiling mounted CMFB 75 through to our flagship ZD 75.

Even our remarkable anti-vibration bracket, the WME 75AV, can be used to decouple the speaker from the building – as specified and used by

The EasyHoist Gets An Update
14th Jun '07 ]  Product Announcement

Powerdrive have re-engineered the REF 330 to provide additional strength to the top column – something that will be especially welcome when using the REF 330 to lift truss.
To distinguish the new REF 330 from the previous model, and being particularly creative, we have “upped” the product code to REF 330.1

A consequence of the new design is that the REF 64A, REF 68A and REF 69A – Hinged Truss Mounting Adaptors – will no longer fit, therefore we have withdrawn this model. Users requiring to lift triangular truss should use the REF 69 and REF 135 combination, for ladder truss,
