L-Acoustics presents: Source, System, Space: Shaping the Club Experience
The best nights don’t come from a track alone, or a system alone, or a space alone — they happen when DJs, club owners, and sound come together to resonate as one. In this panel, two leading DJs and two visionary club owners join L-Acoustics to explore how source, system, and space combine to create club experiences that go beyond loudness — into connection, storytelling, and cultural meaning.
