MEAT & WINE CO The Meat & Wine Co is a chain of premium steakhouse restaurants in Australia, which was established back in 2000 to provide an exclusive dining experience. The restaurants are famous for their range of fi ne quality beef - but also serve seafood, chicken and game - perfectly complemented by a high-class wine selection, which is unique to each Meat & Wine Co location. The décor at the different outlets - located at Darling Harbour and Circular Quay in Sydney and Southbank and Hawthorn East in Melbourne - have also been individually styled but all feature sumptuous furnishings boasting rich colours and textures. As well as chic interiors, two of the four restaurants have recently undergone an audio upgrade - with the other two scheduled for a refurbishment in the near future - with the aim of encouraging diners to extend their evening at Meat & Wine Co. The owner of the restaurant chain made contact with Ambient Technology, a distribution and installation company based in Melbourne with plenty of experience in the entertainment business. Founder Adam Nevzat explained how he got the gig: “The owner came across us and we gave him a demo of the Outline IS8 and DVS 8 loudspeakers coupled with the Eidos 108S subwoofers, he was very impressed in comparison to any other system he’d heard before. We started on the fi t out in the fi rst venue and he noticed people staying longer for drinks after a meal and I presume that’s down to the nicer environment, the better feeling and the better ambiance throughout the whole venue.” A total of 16 Outline IS8 compact two-way loudspeakers and eight Outline IS6T high fi delity, full range loudspeakers have been installed at Meat & Wine Co located in the lobby of the iconic InterContinental Hotel, Sydney at Circular Quay. The loudspeakers have been integrated discreetly to blend in with the original arched windows and rustic wooden walls, lavish leather seating and

stone features of the heritage-listed hotel. The IS Series cabinets are supplemented four Outline Eidos 108S subwoofers, which can take care of frequencies down to 36Hz with a peak SPL of 126dB making them the ideal choice to provide low-frequency reinforcement for the venue’s distributed sound system. The sound system is powered by four Kind Audio KQX 22.4 amplifi ers. “Similar to the Outline products, these amplifi ers are also hand-made in Italy, it’s another range of boutique products that the company has sourced. I’m fi nding that I’m moving away from the huge labels in favour of hand crafted products like Outline, Kind and Jocavi,” continued Adam. Jocavi acoustic panels are a new product line for Ambient Technology and all the Meat & Wine Co venues that are being remodelled will be acoustically treated with this panelling. Adam said: “We fi nd that in most of the venues we walk into, fi rst we need to fi x the environment and make it acoustically perfect and then we can put in these great sound systems, so its a good marriage between the two products.” Now that Meat & Wine Co at Circular Quay, Sydney and Southbank, Melbourne have been infused with Italian charm and have witnessed an increase in after dinner drinks, Adam and his team are making plans to roll out similar designs at the other outlets.
