Situated at an altitude of 1700m, Le 1700 is a French restaurant that also features live music and dancing. "We were asked to provide some speakers for a live test as part of the complete refurbishment of the restaurant," explains Pierre Fahed of Techno Sound. "The PA had to be suitable for the playback of recorded lounge music suitable for quiet dining, but also for the amplification of live music for dancing. The management tested several brands, but they chose the QSC K and KW Series after our President, Mr Georges Bitar, showed them what the speakers could do on site."
Six K10 speakers, two K12s, six KW122s and five KW181 subs were installed at Le 1700 over the course of two days and the installation was up and running in time for the 2013 ski season. "The guys at Le 1700 have been very pleased with their choice," explains Pierre Fahed. "I think the sound quality of the QSC speakers won them over; they liked how the speakers sounded when running quiet and loud, and they liked our reputation for good after-sales support - which we offer even for clients halfway up a mountain."
