Pura Brasa
Platja d'Aro (Spain)
Pura Brasa is a uniquely designed restaurant with an open kitchen and dining area in a village alongside the Costa Brava in Spain. The restaurant offers a healthy menu with amazing grilled dishes. The design of the restaurant is very cosy and open making it a beautiful location for everybody to enjoy.
To make the customer’s visit even more comfortable and cosy, Platja d’Ara invested in a new professional audio solution from AUDAC. The building consists of multiple areas and floors making it a real challenge to have an easy to control installation while still guaranteeing excellent audio quality. To face these challenges, a CAP412 – Quad channel power amplifier 4 X 120W 100V was installed. The amplifier at the heart of their set-up is able to provide 120W to each of the four separate output channels making it a very flexible solution. To ensure good coverage in the restaurant, the ALTI4 2-way 4" pendant speaker was used because of its wide opening angle. Thanks to this amazing property, an exceptional dispersion in the open space is guaranteed.
Finding a ceiling speaker that fitted the restaurant was tricky because of the distinctive design of the ceiling. Fortunately, the CALI424 - Safelatch™ 2-way 4" ceiling speaker with Twist-Fix™ grill was the ideal fit for facing this challenge thanks to the Safelatch™ mounting system. The backcan attached to the ‘CALI424 ceiling speaker’ guarantees consistent high audio quality regardless of the ceiling. Keeping the aesthetics in the different areas was a crucial factor for Pura Brasa when deciding on their new sound integration, that’s why we attached the GLI05 Front grill with cloth & outdoor treatment to the CALI4 speakers we used. These front grills are available in black, white and paintable colour making it perfect for blending in with any environment.
The restaurant also consists of a dining area outside, so resistance to extreme weather conditions was also a factor that needed to be kept in mind. To overcome this challenge, AUDAC provided them with the WX502/O Outdoor universal wall speaker which are specially designed for outdoor use. The material used for the mounting bracket has been improved by using aluminium and the loudspeakers have an IP55 rating making it a solid fit. The cloth and outdoor treatment of the front grill for the CALI4 & ALTI4 speakers provide excellent protection against the bad weather conditions throughout the whole year.
The completely new professional audio integration took the cosy atmosphere of the restaurant to the next level, making it the perfect place for relaxing while having a delicious meal.
