Acoustic Consultant Luk Van Daele used RPG Diffractals® all
along the side walls and on the rear wall of the balcony to provide
optimal sound coverage for the 850 seat audience. “RPG QRD®
734 Diffusors were used in the Orchestra pit to clarify and heighten
the sense of ensemble. The fully rigged, mobile RPG VAMPS®
can be adjusted according to the size and composition of the orchestra.
Musicians and public are unanimously enthusiastic about the extraordinary
acoustical impact on stage and within the hall.”

The Cultural Center De Spil and the adjacent Academy of Music
are built around an amphitheatre style courtyard in Roeselare,
Belgium. The original design did not incorporate an orchestra
shell as part of the hall. Later on, when the owner requested
that an orchestra shell be part of the design, RPG VAMPS®
was specified. “The custom made, zebrano wood Diffractals®,
with faux aluminum dividers, marvelously blend with the hall’s
dark red hues and also add a surprising touch of warmth and comfort.”

The City of Roeselare’s Cultural Center De Spil sought an
acoustically excellent 850 seat multi purpose hall that would
be able to welcome a variety of performances, including drama,
opera, band, and orchestra. Flexibility and adaptability are therefore
the key words for this hall and RPG® products have played
a great role in achieving this goal. Additional flexibility is
obtained by opening or closing the balcony level, which changes
the hall’s seating capacity from 500-600 up to 750-850.
