USA - The Blue Martini Lounge has locations in Boca Raton, Ft. Lauderdale, Las Vegas, Miami, Naples, Orlando, Phoenix/Scottsdale, Tampa and West Palm Beach. To keep the patios full of music, Blue Martini has chosen the SMS2124B Surface Mount Loudspeaker from EAW. Thus far, Blue Martini's club location in West Palm Beach has already installed the SMS2124B speaker in its patio area. SMS2124B's will be installed in the other locations in the coming months, and future Blue Martini Lounges scheduled for other markets will open with SMS2124B's already installed."These are the best small loudspeakers for this type of application," says Tom Griffin, president of Griffin Automation of Port St. Lucie, Florida, which handles the lighting for the Blue Martini locations in Florida and is doing many of the EAW SMS2124B patio upgrades, including the one at the Miami location. Next on the schedule are the Ft. Lauderdale, Tampa and Orlando clubs, which will each have a dozen SMS2124B speakers encircling the patio areas, allowing patrons to enjoy a seamless transition between inside and out.
