\t\t\tAustralia: <\/p>\n
Bondi Icebergs has completed a major renovation of its club and function spaces, relaunching the Sydney venue as The Bergs with a new audiovisual system designed to support a wider range of hospitality, live entertainment and private events. <\/p>\n
The upgrade was delivered by Showtime Production Services in collaboration with MadisonAV, with the installation centred on JBL Professional loudspeakers, Crown amplifiers and BSS signal processing from Harman Professional. <\/p>\n
The redevelopment includes new bars, expanded dining areas, upgraded amenities and dedicated function rooms. The AV infrastructure was designed to support multiple events running simultaneously while allowing staff to reconfigure spaces quickly. <\/p>\n
\u201cOn a typical Friday or Saturday, we\u2019re turning over spaces every couple of hours while running multiple functions,\u201d said Cassie O\u2019Brien, general manager of Bondi Icebergs. \u201cOne area might be general trade with sport and background music, another a private function with images streamed to screens and elsewhere a live band performing. The upgrade allows us to create very different experiences within one venue.\u201d <\/p>\n
The integration brief focused on flexibility, ease of operation and long-term scalability. \u201cIn registered club environments, change is inevitable,\u201d explained Scott Masters, director at Showtime Production Services. \u201cThe AV system needed to be flexible, intuitive for staff and designed so the venue can expand or adapt without major rework. MadisonAV played a key role in helping us align the right technology to that goal.\u201d <\/p>\n
At the heart of the installation is a distributed multizone audio system based on BSS BLU signal processors, enabling centralised control and flexible routing across the venue. Staff can combine or isolate zones to accommodate changing event requirements. <\/p>\n
JBL Control Series loudspeakers have been specified throughout the venue, including Control 424 in-ceiling models in reception and dining areas, Control 25AV loudspeakers in general spaces and Control 29AV loudspeakers in higher-output zones. A JBL ABS6112B subwoofer supports DJ performances and live entertainment, while Crown CDi and CSA Series amplifiers provide system amplification. <\/p>\n
\u201cModern hospitality venues need systems that deliver consistent sound quality across multiple zones while remaining easy to operate and robust enough for constant use,\u201d said Nick Screen, VP and GM of Harman Professional Solutions, APAC. \u201cThe JBL, Crown and BSS ecosystem used at Bondi Icebergs supports that balance, allowing venues to shift seamlessly between use cases without compromising the guest experience.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Australia: Bondi Icebergs has completed a major renovation of its club and function spaces, relaunching the Sydney venue…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":841699,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[64,63,105],"class_list":["post-841698","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/841698","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=841698"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/841698\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/841699"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=841698"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=841698"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=841698"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
