“With a system like K2 in place, touring shows can leave all or most of their touring PA on the truck,” observes Chris Miller, engineer and owner of Sacramento-based CTM Sound, the project’s audio systems integrator and exclusive audio production vendor for Thunder Valley. Touring artists like these are attracted to the venue for its controlled acoustics and leading-edge technologies, with the L-Acoustics K2 system as its audio flagship. That started with the Eagles’ “Hotel California 2023” tour, followed by Bruno Mars, and then Santana with Bryan Adams, plus The Black Crowes, Frankie Valli, Ringo Starr, and many more in the wings, all using The Venue’s newly installed L-Acoustics K2 sound system. Under the aegis of the United Auburn Indian Community Tribal Council, the $100 million, 150,000-square-foot entertainment complex in Lincoln, California, approximately 30 miles north of Sacramento, is already proving the value of its state-of-the-art approach to venue technology with the first run of shows. LINCOLN, California – March 2023 – The Venue at Thunder Valley Casino Resort is a new 4,500-seat entertainment space officially christened on Valentine’s Day this year. After using a Kudo/SB28 system in its 900-seat Pano Hall for a dozen years, the property has now equipped its brand new 4,500-seat concert venue with K, A, and X Series enclosures
