What matters for your venue

  • An atmosphere for each zone

    Dining room, mezzanine, bar and terrace have different acoustics and different needs: sound is set zone by zone.

  • A comfortable level

    Pleasant at the table, without tiring the staff who spend the day there.

  • Discreet, durable equipment

    Built-in speakers, weather-protected outdoor equipment, a clean installation: the décor is preserved.

Possible solutions

In a café or restaurant, sound is part of the service: it fades into the background at the table and carries when the venue comes alive. The four set-ups below cover the most common cases; we combine them to suit your venue.

  • Speaker positions given the ceiling and furniture
  • Where to adjust the sound: bar, till or technical room
