At the Hong Kong Coliseum, the youthful-looking 29-year-old belted out familiar favorites as well as newer hits, including My Way and Yes and No. Based in Hong Kong and Guangdong, Cheung began his career in 1999 and has to date released more than 10 albums. As the four-night concert beginning on February 12 coincided with the Chinese New Year festive season, Sennheiser customized at the request of Cheung a red SKM 5200 wireless handheld with the Neumann KK 105-S capsule. The same combination was also made available in white and silver. |

Monitor engineer A-Yuan singled out the IEM system as his personal highlight for the concert. “This was my first time using the new 2000 series, and I was very pleasantly surprised by how good the new enhanced audio sounded.

The reliability of Sennheiser RF, he added, also made all the difference on each of the four nights. “There was absolutely no room for dropouts – I really couldn’t ask for anything more!”
