picky Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 On Friday evening (06/08/2012) Klipsch treated those of us who were interested to free seats to see the top female Country Music Artist, Miranda Lambert perform. And perform she did! Klipsch Music Center is located in Noblesville, Indiana, not far from Indianapolis (northeast of town). The facility was The Verizon Wireless Music Center prior to this year and originally, the facility was Deer creek Music Center from 1989 when it opened. The KMC sits on 224 acres and seats approximately 24,000 with 6,000 beneath the pavillion and 18,000 on the lawn.I am told that Friday night was a sell-out and it looked like it! The area around the pavillion is surrounded by little shops, food and drink vendors and a little suprise for Klipsch fans: Klipsch is known for protecting its heritage and therefore, usually follows tradition: When PWK initially started his speaker business in Hope, Arkansas, he chose to house the business in a Tin Shed. Here at the KMC, a lose interpretation of that tin shed is represented here in the form of the Klipsch Listening Lounge; a place where concertgoers may drop by, check out some Klipsch products, try out headphones and ask questions of Klipsch employees.

picky Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 Here's a shot of stage-right showing the Clair I-3, flown line arrays and the Clair BT-218 (18" x 2) sub stacks which flanked each end of the stage. I must stay that in my opinion, they did not perform as well as the Klipsch commercial products I have heard. Not even close. But the show was still very enjoyable once the main act hit the stage and they had the sound dialed in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
