To this end, Sound Division's David Graham specified a Crown-driven JBL system that is split into two zones with the ability to control both zones from each area. The bar area is served by JBL Control 28 loudspeakers while Graham opted for Control 25Avs for the lounge with system control courtesy of a Cloud CX242 dual zone mixer. In addition to the audio system, Sound Division has also installed a sophisticated AV system comprising a 42" Fujitsu plasma screen in the lounge, a Harman Kardon high-resolution DVD player plus a Mitsubishi XD300 projector and electric drop-down screen in the bar area. The main music source comes courtesy of a Rolec music management system, Sound Division's preferred choice, and a secondary Pioneer multi-CD player.
Steve Kelly is extremely pleased with the results. "I chose Sound Division based on their track record of having delivered similar solutions to many other established leisure operators. As this is my first venture, I wanted a safe pair of hands, someone whom I could trust. Sound Division have delivered a flexible, cost-effective system which delivers a really quality audio-visual experience to my customers. Furthermore they delivered the system on time, to budget and helped us to design a system that matched the needs of our customers. I would not hesitate recommend Sound Division to other operators and would be happy to be a reference for them."
