On the evening of August 29, 2026, the legendary "National Singer" of Mandopop, Wakin Chau, brought his "Young Fantasy Journey 3.0" concert tour to the Hohhot Northern Football Training Base Gymnasium, delivering a timeless feast of classic hits to the northern frontier city. From the steadfast brotherhood in "Friends" to the chivalrous romance in "Sword and Dreams," from the tender affection in "Flower Heart" to the unwavering perseverance in "Come Rain or Shine," Wakin Chau used his warm and pristine voice to awaken the shared youth memories of generations.
Empowered by the TURANDOT Acoustic System Platform
Creating an Immersive Auditory Experience
To ensure the acoustic quality of this concert reached top-tier standards, Reyn Audio relied on its self-developed TURANDOT acoustic system platform to customize a comprehensive professional sound reinforcement solution for the Northern Football Training Base Gymnasium. Through precise calculation and tuning tailored to the venue space and performance sound source characteristics, it uniformly optimized the sound pressure across the entire venue, resolved pain points such as sound field imbalance and audio distortion, and achieved a consistent, pristine, and high-fidelity auditory experience throughout the arena.

Main PA System：
RL15 + RL2 Combination
The main PA system consists of 28 RL15 (RAFALE15) line array speakers paired with 6 RL2 (RAFALE2) line array speakers.
As Reyn Audio's flagship line array product, the RL15 (RAFALE15) is renowned for its surging mid-low frequency response and exceptional long-throw capability. It creates sound coverage characteristics with precise vertical projection and a uniform horizontal sound field, ensuring that Wakin Chau's signature warm vocals remain clearly distinguishable and free of muddiness in a venue holding tens of thousands of people.
The RL2 (RAFALE2) handles high-frequency extension and near-field detail supplementation. Its exceptional vocal penetration and mid-high frequency resolution render the tone transparent and delicate with precise imaging and positioning, perfectly filling the high-frequency extension zone of the main line array.
Fill Systems：
Dual-Side Array Coverage, Eliminating Listening Blind Spots
To cover the sides and corner blind spots of the venue, Reyn Audio set up two groups of lateral fill arrays: Side1 adopts 24 units of RL2 (RAFALE2) and Side2 adopts 4 units of RL2 (RAFALE2). This perfectly fills the blind spots of the main PA coverage, smooths out the volume attenuation caused by long-distance propagation, and eliminates the thin listening experience at the corner seats of the stands. Whether the audience members are in the front rows of the floor or up in the nosebleed seats, they receive an equally full and balanced sound.
Subwoofer System：
GS218 Array, Constructing a Shocking Low-Frequency Foundation
The low-frequency system is divided into two combinations: flown and ground-stacked. The Fly Sub consists of 12 GS218 (CANNON218) flown subwoofer cabinets distributed on both sides of the stage, while the Ground Sub consists of 30 GS218 (CANNON218) ground subwoofers uniformly arranged in front of the stage. The coordination of the upper and lower array groups constructs a heavy and solid low-frequency foundation.
Front Fills:
RX12 optimizes the close-range listening experience for the front rows
12 units of RX12 (COBRA12) point-source speakers are arranged along the front edge of the stage as front-fill speakers, specifically covering the close-range audience area in the front rows. This solves common problems such as near-field vocal crowding and sound field fracturing, providing the front-row audience with a delicate listening experience close to the stage.
Stage Monitors:
M1 secures stable performances with live vocals throughout
The stage performance area is equipped with 13 M1 (ABRAMS) professional stage monitor speakers. This allows Wakin and the live backing band to clearly capture vocals and instrument beats, calmly handle multi-genre transitions and on-site interactions, and ensure a stable and smooth live performance with open mics throughout the entire show.
Meanwhile, this concert fully utilized ACME professional stage lighting equipment: AECO 20, TB 5 IP (TORNADO), STROBE 3 IP (PIXEL LINE IP), CM 7 IP (HYPERZONE), and LED-BL8 (STAGE BLINDER P8). With multi-dimensional lighting design and rich light effects, they complemented the top-tier sound effects to jointly construct an immersive audiovisual feast.
On this night, Wakin Chau sang his way back to the original aspirations of his youth, while Reyn Audio precisely delivered every note to the ears of every audience member. Under the night sky of the northern frontier city, this "fantasy journey" concerning youth, friendship, and the martial arts world left an indelible musical memory, escorted by top-tier sound and lighting.
The journey of youth continues. Please stay tuned for upcoming shows and join Wakin Chau in rediscovering that youth who has never walked far away through the power of song!
