Martin Audio CDD for Albanian Green Coast
Green Coast is a luxury tourist retreat located in the Albanian resort of Palasë. Known as the Albanian Riviera, and overlooking the Ionian Sea, it is also a popular recreational hub, with a number of bars and restaurants. One of these is the latest SALT, run by experienced restaurateurs, Revo Hospitality Group (RHG) which specialises in Mediterranean cuisine, seafood and sushi. Described as ae “one-stop shop for food and beverage experiences, providing something for everyone from daytime, dining, nightlife and events” it recently turned to Martin Audio’s local distribution partner, Prosound for a sound system installation. This was after they had successfully carried out other work for the Group (including SALT restaurants, and Lift Steak & Rooftop Bar.
Having used the Prosound / Martin Audio combination successfully on previous installations RHG had no need to change a winning formula. Tasked with reinforcing a wide range of music sources - including DJs and live bands (when the venue reverts to a night time / club atmosphere) - Prosound’s Endrit Veleshnja recommended a CDD solution.
CDD is Martin Audio’s most popular range, particularly for this type of venue. Drawing on Coaxial Differential Dispersion technology (which gives CDD its name) the system is versatile and easy to install, with flexible mounting options. Prosound divided the single-storey venue into five different sound zones, with three different sound sources that can be combined. They specified a combination of CDD15, CDD10, CDD8, CDD6, for use both inside and out on the terrace, powered by Martin Audio VIA amplifiers, with Martin Audio ADORN A55 infilling the peripheral areas.
In the main dance area these were complemented by several SX118 subwoofers, with SX112 and SX110 providing LF extension in the other zones, routed through a third-party processor. Thus the operators can once again reflect on a successful installation that meets all requirements over a trading pattern that runs from lunchtime right through until 3am.
