For the Elbo Room, a popular local club in the city's Mission District, San Francisco Audio's Radley Hirsch came up with a novel approach, suspending three Community R.5HP loudspeakers above the stage to create a stage monitoring design that is as efficient as it is powerful. The R.5HP, a weather-resistant sound reinforcement loudspeaker typically used for music and voice applications in arenas, fairgrounds and other outdoor venues, proved to be an ideal solution on a number of levels.

"It's hard for smaller clubs to budget for stage monitors, and the R.5HP's made perfect sense as a more affordable option," Hirsch explain

Mark Broadhead, installation manager at local dealers Matthews Electronics, who service many of the local bars, says that the comprehensive Wharfedale range offers so many options, that each venue can have its own tailored Wharfedale-specific sound to reproduce the wide range of background and DJ sound. This was certainly a feature that appealed to DV8 owner, Wayne Toon.

The 900-capacity venue was in a run-down state when he purchased it some four years ago and added it to his 150-strong community pub portfolio in the West Midlands. Recently he decided to commit in the region of £300,000 to developing a bar that would build up the early evening trade.

DV8 itself, which trades with a 6am license, is something of an institution in the city. Whil
