When I tell people about trance and the real 'scene' they automatically assume: underground = drugs

What I try to tell them is underground = damn good music

I've turned a few friends over @ my work into TA's (well almost). The only person I don't think I'll ever ever change is my gino brother, it's hopeless. I still try though for some reason...

hey vertexsound .. i'm just curious, but is Phazon a 'standard' kinda like THX, whereby if ur configuration is in such a way , then it'z (Phazon) or is Phazon specifically a line of equipment (ie. something physical) .. ?

just wondering cuz i wonder if it's possible for the system at Viva to be say Phazon equivalent ..

forgive me if i'm not making much sense outta all this, but i'm not a sound system expert or anything ..

And I certainly hope they did read those, especially the ones where we mentioned them too... if we don't criticize them, then they will probably assume that they are just perfect (which they are not).

yeah... and it was VIVA too.

Just a side track: Viva does a pretty good job of making the club a safe place. Even if there was some head turning on the bouncer's parts when it came to drug use inside the club, it was still pretty sweet. And you guys say you are going to work on that.

Quick question for Viva:

If these guys got to the front of the line, would you let them in?

Here goes...........
Phazon is a company, its not a standard, They dont manufacture systems/components. They use different brands eg. JBL, Pioneer, DBX, KLarkTeknik etc and "design" a system according to the requirements. The venue is inspected, each and every corner of the room even the material of the walls are researched. So for every different venue where a phazon has to be installed, it has to be done from scratch. You cant just buy a Phazon and just simply install it.
So basically they do a complete research on the venue and than install various components accordingly.

Steve Dash is the main Engineer for Phazon. He was here at Guv last year to refurbish the system. From what I heard, he used to stand in different places on the floor and tune it with a remote control !!
There are sensors installed on top of the quads, which even detect the air temperature, density, humidity. Sound is released taking in view all these factors !!! The last part only happens in "generation II" though. Now I'll explain that.

The client list on the Phazon site is a bit innaccurate, I've never been impressed by their site. Dont know how they have such a cheap site with such a big name.

When they say one of four in thw world. Its true.
Of the total 18 clubs in which Phazon is installed, 14 have the Generation I (Im not sure if thats what they call it now, they've renamed it to some digit word.) And the rest four have the Generation II, updated much more sophisticated system.

Twilo - NYC (Closed)
Cream - Liverpool (Closed)
Guvernment - Toronto
Space - Miami

There is no such thing as Phazon Equivalent...........a Phazon is a Phazon. I have yet to experience a system better than that. ALthough Meyers Sound which installed Aria's (Montreal) system are pretty good aswell. I would give them second place to Phazon.

Cheers,

-TaimuR

If I close my eyes I can watch my flesh melt away and my soul rise between the spaces of sound.
