Harman Pro revives Phnom Penh music bar
- Details
Located at Phnom Penh, Bar Menaka is a popular venue for upscale parties, fashion shows, dinners and corporate events. Elaborately decorated with lush jungle terraces, Khmer sculptures and a long Angkor-style hallway, the venue exudes an alternative ambience while offering Cambodian hospitality.
To deliver captivating live music experiences for guests, Bar Menaka’s management wanted to repurpose the venue’s cafe into a premier bar and entertainment space featuring a world-class audio system. With live bands and DJs performing on a regular basis, it was imperative that the new system had tour-grade power and versatility. To meet these requests, NanoTech Co partnered with Harman Professional and installed a diverse range of JBL Professional, Crown and Soundcraft audio solutions.
The JBL VTX F15 multi-purpose loudspeakers provide the main stage with a full spectrum of dynamic sound.
NanoTech Co installed the JBL STX812M for powerful on-stage sound. Featuring a low-profile design that is only 12 inches above the stage, these professional monitors provide accurate sound for the performers without obstructing the audience’s field of view.
The Crown ITech 4x3500HD amplifier delivers substantial power for the entire loudspeaker system.
Bar Menaka also received the Soundcraft Si Performer digital live mixer. The mixer’s built-in DMX controller grants seamless control over the light fixtures on Bar Menaka’s main stage.
A spokesperson from Bar Menaka said the transformation of the sound system has significantly improved the quality of music performances.
“Our range of industry-leading audio products ensures Harman delivers the best sound for versatile spaces like Bar Menaka,” said Amar Subash, director, channel management and audio solutions, Harman Professional Solutions, APAC. “We are grateful to Nano Tech Co for the opportunity to collaborate on this exciting project.”
