With music clearly central to the Amazónico guest experience, the choice of sound system was always going to be an important one, with the apparently competing requirements of plenty of power and headroom to create a party vibe, along with a compact, visually discreet form factor that wouldn’t impose itself too heavily on the restaurant’s exquisite interior design.
Following the successful installation last year at Amazónico in Monte Carlo, the restaurant team contacted the Nice-based live event technology and system integration specialists Dushow who have once again proposed a NEXO system for the Miami venue, supplemented with Yamaha ceiling speakers.
The ground floor restaurant area with a stage straddling indoor and outdoor areas is equipped with 24 x NEXO P8 and 4 x P10 from the company’s industry-standard P+ Series point source range, along with 11 x NEXO IDS210 and 4 x IDS110 subs, plus a single Nexo ePS6.
In the second-floor lounge, a total of 19x NEXO P10s are supplemented by 4 x L15, 5 x IDS210 and 1 x IDS312 subs, along with an additional 2 x P8s for DJ monitors.
The Private Dining Room is equipped with 2 x ePS6 from NEXO’s ‘install only’ ePS range with a single IDS110 sub.
And at the top, the indoor area is equipped with 11 x NEXO P12s with 3 x L15 and 6 x IDS312 subs, plus 2 more P8s for DJ monitors.
Outside on the rooftop are 13 x NEXO ePS6s with 8 x IDS110 and 1 x IDS210 subs, and a further pair of P8 DJ monitors.
The system which combines the potential very high SPL with great clarity and finesse is powered by 25 of NEXO’s NXAMPMk2 Powered TD Controllers, with sources and amplifiers managed by a Symetrix Prism 8 x 8 processor using Dante.
Great sound is essential in a setting where music makes such an important contribution to the guest experience, but the sound system also needs to be discreet in such a sumptuously designed venue.
“The customer is very pleased with the performance and the aesthetics of the new system,” commented consultant Yves Hubert, “and also how easy it is for the restaurant staff to control.”
Amazónico sets an incredibly high standard of guest experience and, once again, the team at Dushow has made a great system design bringing world-class sound to the new Amazónico in Miami.
