The Knight of Notting Hill Revamped with Martin Audio

Carbon Integration, a renowned home automation company based in West London and Sunningdale, were tasked with a completely new audio-visual system for a renovation project on the outskirts of Kensington, London.

The Knight of Notting Hill (formerly known as KPH) was a rundown pub and hotel in desperate need of renovation. The new owners sought to modernise the property and create a vibrant atmosphere with a perfect combination of high-quality sound systems and audio-visual expertise to accommodate regular live events and DJ performances. Plus, the new pub needed to be able to transition from quiet background music to a ‘nightlife’ bar experience without tainting audio quality.

This would require sleek-looking passive speakers that were simple to use and able to deliver pristine sound over short and medium distances. In addition, the new owners wanted subwoofers to give the music a kick in the evening.   

In collaboration with Leisuretec, Carbon Integration designed and installed a cutting-edge AV solution using six X8 BlacklineX speakers, two SX112 subwoofers, and three VIA2502 Class D Amplifiers. An RTI control system was then integrated to provide seamless control of the AV setup, allowing easy access for DJs to manage audio-visual elements during performances.

Despite a tight timeline of under two weeks, Carbon Integration successfully completed the installation, exceeding client expectations. 'We have used Martin Audio speakers in multiple locations for numerous years, and the quality of the sound and reliability makes it a no-brainer for us,' says Carbon Integrations Managing Director Indi Chaggar. The reliability and quality of Martin Audio speakers, coupled with the intuitive control system, means the venue now has the professional sound quality to accompany its new high-end renovation.
