Shanghai Beer Club
Block 1A.10.2, 2 Thang 9 Street, Da Nang City
After a period of operation, Diamond Club wanted to improve sound quality for its guests and selected B-Star to advise on the upgrade. The aim was to create an enhanced version of Diamond Club. Combined with a modern lighting system, Diamond Club 2.0 offers an impressive audio and lighting experience in central Vietnam.
With a spacious interior and a modern, youthful design, Diamond Club is an upscale nightlife venue in Tam Ky, Quang Nam.
THE DIAMOND CLUB VENUE
- Floor area: more than 350 m².
- A nearly square floor plan.
- A spacious interior with a 3.8 m ceiling.
DESIGN FINDINGS FROM THE SITE SURVEY
Delay loudspeakers were distributed throughout the venue to achieve even coverage and a consistent sound. This required careful acoustic calculations and system design.
The upgrade also had to take place while the club continued operating. B-Star developed a detailed installation schedule so that work could progress while maintaining the sound quality needed for daily operation.
EQUIPMENT SELECTION FOR DIAMOND CLUB
Following the site survey and measurements, B-Star developed the loudspeaker layout:
The floor plan suited a dual-driver subwoofer solution using the Martin Audio SX218. Each SX218 uses two 18-inch drivers, with 2,000 W AES power handling and 8,000 W peak power handling. The SX218 delivers powerful, controlled low-frequency reproduction.
B-Star used an ARC SUB arrangement of 12 SX218 subwoofers across the front of the stage. Cabinet spacing and individual DSP settings were calculated for the layout.
The system also includes 12 high-output Martin Audio THV three-way full-range loudspeakers to meet the venue’s sound-pressure requirements. The THV three-way cabinets combine robust construction and vibration control with a maximum SPL of 139 dB peak.
CONTROL AND AMPLIFICATION
The next task was to integrate the subwoofers and full-range loudspeakers.
B-Star used four Martin Audio DX0.5 DSP processors, each with two inputs and six outputs, to process signals for individual loudspeaker positions and achieve a consistent system response.
The large venue and high-output loudspeakers also called for powerful, reliable amplification. B-Star selected Full Fat Audio FFA-6004, Martin Audio iKON iK42, and VIA5004 amplifiers.
THE COMPLETED SYSTEM
Following the implementation of the Martin Audio system, B-Star continues to support Diamond Club at 83–87 Truong Chi Cuong Street, Tam Ky. The carefully tuned installation gives the venue a distinctive musical character for its nightlife events.
