Auviso is a market leader in central Switzerland and one of the key players in the country. Besides offering technical services and consultancy, auviso also boasts a large fleet of advanced audio, video, lighting and rigging equipment to help its customers stage successful events. “Every three to four years we replace our complete rental stock,” says Martin Elmiger, Chief Executive Officer at auviso. “When it was time to overhaul our projector fleet, we carefully compared the product offering of four different suppliers on criteria like innovation, quality and serviceability. Barco’s HDX-W20 and HDF-W26 projectors definitely stood out from the rest.”
Taking projection to the next level
Elmiger and his colleagues were especially impressed to see how the three-chip DLP projectors seamlessly combine awesome brightness levels with a compact design. With a light output of 20,000 and 26,000 lumens respectively, the HDX-W20 and HDF-W26 projectors display crisp images with rich colors, even in venues with lots of ambient light. The robustness, reliability and price/quality ratio were equally important in auviso’s choice for Barco.
Setting the example
In addition to the quality of the products themselves, the services provided by Barco distributor Baranday were important too. Baranday provides 24/7 support, a hotline and can deliver swap components in no time. “We are delighted that auviso chose Barco’s high-brightness projectors, as they are really one of Switzerland’s key AV experts,” says Markus Vehlow, Sales Manager at Barco. “Their investment will undoubtedly spur other AV rental providers in the country to follow their example.”
Until 3 January 2015, thousands of Swiss will be enjoying an exclusive performance of ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ at the Culture and Conference center in Lucerne. The recipe is pretty unique: a combination of the movie with an exquisite dinner and live music by the 21st Century Symphony Orchestra. Auviso audiovisual solutions was proud to deliver three of its brand-new Barco HDXFW26 projectors to make the Disney classic come to life.
