DACS Audio Revamp Lucky's Bar with Void
Founded in the late 1980s, DACS audio is a renowned audio technology company that started on a journey to deliver high-quality sound experiences. Over the years, it has diversified its expertise, from manufacturing high-end studio gear to designing and building recording studios, home cinemas, and acoustic treatment solutions for existing spaces. Their commitment has extended to designing and installing high-end audio systems for clubs, bars, and restaurants, such as Lucky's bar in Newcastle.
Lucky's is a music-enthusiastic establishment with a particular emphasis on early hip-hop. The owner, Tommy Byron, had previously invested in a Void sound system for his other property, the Dog and Parrot pub next door, which had more than proven itself. For Lucky's, the challenge was clear: create a visually striking sound system that could fit the hip-hop vibe while delivering pristine audio quality with controlled dispersion.
Tommy and the DACS team attended a Void demo, an experience that solidified their choice for Lucky's Bar. The Air series, known for its studio-quality reproduction, perfectly matched their requirements. Among the options, the Air Vantage stood out as the ideal choice due to its size and visually stunning appearance, making it an excellent fit for the front window end of Lucky's.
The Air Vantage speakers deliver an unparalleled audio experience. The clarity and detail of sound along the entire 18-metre length of Lucky's Bar is staggering. To control and optimise bass, DACS incorporated bass control treatment in the end walls, ensuring that the sound quality remained exceptional without excessive booming. Additionally, Tommy and DACS knew this was a sound system that would attract eyes as well as ears, due to its aesthetically pleasing design and fiery red finish.
What truly sets this install apart is the ease of set-up and the presets in the Void Bias Q1.5 amplifier, which is carefully tuned to deliver the best possible output and protection for the speakers. The result is an audio system that has exceeded expectations,
This successful partnership demonstrates how combining cutting-edge technology with a deep understanding of audio engineering can elevate the experience of music enthusiasts and businesses alike. DACS Managing Director Douglas Doherty comments: 'The speakers simply sound, and this really is a word I rarely if ever use, awesome.' DACS and Void's commitment to high-quality sound has undoubtedly made Lucky's a destination for those seeking an extraordinary hip-hop experience.
