Converted from Victorian-era bank vault to sophisticated lounge bar, The Treasury needed an installation with the audio quality to match its uniquely impressive décor.
"The Treasury doesn't have a dance floor," explains Zhev Liberson, director of Clockwork Audio. "It's a sophisticated bar that's music orientated. The volume isn't up to nightclub levels but it's vital that everyone is able to hear the music. The APart system does deliver that kind of quality, and it gives a very good representation of music from different sources like MP3 and CD."Fellow director of Clockwork Audio Systems Ltd David Monk paired eight APart MASK6-W wall mounted speakers with two SUB 2400 subwoofers, all powered by two Pubdrive 2000 three-way amplifiers and controlled by an APart PM 7400 mixer.
"The APart system covers two separate zones," continues Liberson. "The front and the back end of the bar are all controlled from one APart PM 7400 rack mixer, using a Mac Mini as the audio server.
"The owners wanted an install on a very small budget, but we explained to them that they could have real quality for a little bit more. The APart equipment does a really good job for the money you pay for it. The system works really well and there's a fantastic sound in the room."
APart products are distributed in the UK by Sennheiser UK.
