From its humble beginnings as a local event hire business in Victoria, Production Corp has undergone a remarkable evolution. In operation for over 15 years, the company has cemented itself in the industry and grown to become a notable provider of audio, visuals, lighting and mobile stages for live production. Since taking the reins in 2022, Production Corpโs owner, Eden Jefferson, has brought a spirited enthusiasm to development of the business, expanding its portfolio of hire solutions to include LED video walls and a collection of cutting edge RCF loudspeaker systems.
Drawing from previous experience running a successful video wall business for five years, Edenโs approach to Production Corp combines his passion for visual effects with high quality audio to foster experiences with impact. Delivering on this vision, Production Corpโs dedication to the craft was on display at Phillip Islandโs most recent MotoGP.

Run at the scenic Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit, the MotoGP is an iconic fixture of the islandโs cultural landscape, drawing in crowds to enjoy the rev of motorcycle engines since 1997. With attendance at the 2022 event climbing to over 90,000 people, Production Corpโs involvement was no insignificant undertaking. Servicing a stage hosting an abundance of live entertainment from day to night, Eden explains why he chose RCFโs HDL 20-A line array system for the event:
โFor the MotoGP stage we needed something that would pack a punch. We went with four RCF HDL 20-Aโs flown in an array on either side of the stage, with dual 18-inch 8006-AS subs. I just love the HDL-20-Aโs, we call them our โgods of thunderโ because they have great clarity and power. You wouldnโt expect it from such a light-weight cabinet, but they really did the job well and threw a long distance.โ

Driven by a highly efficient two-way digital amplifier, the HDL 20-A line array elements offer an exceptional power-to-weight ratio, weighing 30kg whilst being able to reach a formidable 135dB max SPL with minimal energy expenditure. This advantage in particular caught Edenโs attention:
โMy absolute favourite thing about using RCF HDL 20-A cabinets is their power consumption. Itโs something Iโve noticed sitting in the background observing at events-youโre getting equipment that is a lot more power efficient than plenty of other products on the market. With some events you really need to be mindful of your energy use, but the technology behind the RCF brand is just so efficient in what it consumes compared to what it throws out. Especially at certain pubs and venues with a 10 Amp outlet- you know RCF gear is going to work, sound fantastic and wonโt be tripping circuits.โ

Citing the benefits of the systemโs durability, weight and audio quality, Eden explains that the HDL 20-A system is his go-to choice for a range of Production Corpโs applications:
โThere are three reasons we choose them as our main speaker: awesome clarity, huge power-to-weight ratio, and a nice long throw. Theyโre also super versatile, we love them flown and theyโre also great for ground stacking. What I get from using the HDL 20-A system and other RCF gear is zero compromise โ the architecture just covers all bases so easily. Weโve played around with a lot of other systems, and they all have little areas of compromise, but that doesnโt happen with RCF. Best of all, their products can take a beating. In this industry things are bound to get thrown around and may not get the kindest treatment during gigs โ weโve had some other things fall apart, but RCF just keeps going strong.โ

An ardent RCF enthusiast, Eden also employs a collection of the brandโs other solutions to round out his aural arsenal:
โThe RCF 4PRO series system absolutely kicks; itโs our ideal pub kit. Itโs perfect for inside venues and performs for 500 people easy. We also love the HD10-A wedges, again for their size and what they can put out โ theyโre just really nice little monitor wedges, especially when space on stage is limited. And I should also mention the ART 715-A! Theyโre great for smaller gigs or front fill on larger gigs- and if weโve run out of the HDLโs and need to fly them all, our next approach would be to use the 715โs. I doubt weโll be running out soon as I plan to load up on more HDL 20-A speakers and 8006-AS subs because they put a smile on my face every single time I use them.โ
