Installation company Xtreme Audio Visual, based just down the road in Clacton-on-Sea, has designed a zoned system using off-white coloured EViD 6.2 and 4.2 compact full-range speakers. The small but highly stylized speakers have been fitted in the main club bar and into the club's function room, as well as the Ladies' Dining Room and the Bridge Room.
"All the cables have been hidden," explains Craig Wiggins of Xtreme, "and the speakers have been painted off-white so that they blend in really nicely with the existing décor. We were keen to have very low visibility in a traditional environment like this, so it's great that the members actually like the look of the EViDs and tell us that, audio-wise, the end result is a big improvement."
A Cloud Z4 zoner controls the system, and Xtreme has also supplied a radio mic and speakers on the terraces to enable presentations to go ahead outside the clubhouse.
