Seating throughout the bar and restaurant areas is unusually varied, ranging from high stools, leather-clad bench seats, comfy tub chairs, hard back seating, settees and bean bags; clearly aimed at catering for all age groups. The sound system, selected by local Cardiff-based installer Jeff Smith of Smith Electrical, utilises a combination of Tannoy 18 V8s and five CMS110 active ceiling subwoofers throughout the two-storey site. Dispersion characteristics of the V8's Dual Concentric driver allow precise targeting of sound where it is needed, say Tannoy. The CMS 110-B provides low frequency reinforcement, which is well extended, dynamic, and unobtrusive. Despite a combination of wide open and many secluded, intimate areas on both levels, the system maintains an even sound quality throughout the venue.
