The system comprises 39 JBL Control Contractor Series speakers divided between the meeting room, wine bar, and the separate restaurant area. In the wine bar, eight JBL Control 26C units and three Control 24C ceiling mount speakers, each featuring titanium-coated tweeters, are able to deliver maximum sound level over a wide coverage area. For low frequency support, two Control 19CS in-ceiling subwoofers are installed.
Elsewhere, there are two restaurants within The Hunting Lodge, each equipped with nine JBL Control 24CTs with multi-tap transformers. The primary restaurant houses 17 JBL Control 24CTmicros.
Power is provided by a Crown CTs 4200 and a Crown CTs 8200, which are designed specifically for installed sound situations. AudioXL expanded the capabilities and provided control of the system via two BSS Soundweb SW9088 output expanders, plus four remotes.
"Successful hospitality professionals understand that the key to a holistically positive client experience - and return business - lies in careful attention to the details," suggests Mark Bailey, Harman Pro Group applications engineer. "At the Harman Pro Group, we also understand this premise and we carefully design and manufacture our components and systems to faithfully deliver the background music our customers elect to make the soundtrack of their brands."
