The overall sound system at Mansion includes a combination of Air Motion V2 and Airten V3 speakers, combined with Stasys XV2 subwoofers and Bias Q5 amplifiers. The project had a rapid turnaround from initial brief to the commencement of the installation in the early part of 2020. “There were a couple of challenges we met along the way,” explains Gary. “There was a new roof design at the venue and so we had to produce custom-made brackets. Luckily I have a background in metal fabrication and industrial refinishing and so we manufactured these in-house.”
Another key challenge was the colour customisation of the loudspeakers, as explained by Void Sales Director Mike Newman. “We are able to offer the majority of our product range in custom RAL colours. This is a very popular option for many of our customers, enabling them to create visually striking audio systems and providing a USP for Void systems. We offer colour customisation on all our fibreglass products alongside other customisation features as well. So the customer can really feel a personal service on our products.”
Gary continues “We needed to reflect the architect’s design and colour palette. So I created a one-off custom formulation in our workshop in the knowledge that I’d therefore be able to provide the very specific colour finish for the Void speakers. Once I had achieved as perfect a match as possible, and in order to achieve the tight timelines of this project, this custom paint work was done in-house.

It was a collaboration with the venue owners and the team at Void at every step of this colour matching process.”
And the trio of directors of Mansion were thrilled with the initial response from their clientele in the regrettably short time the club has been operating since it was opened. “The outcome and response we have had to the audio system could not have gone better,” smiles Venue Director Dean. “From the crisp quality sound which the customers are loving, to the amazing feedback from our resident and guest DJs. My co- directors Camelphat have said it’s one of the best sounding systems they’ve heard and played on, which is a huge relief on a personal basis,” he grins.
“2020 was completely stop-start and immensely challenging for us, as it has for the entire night-time economy and although we were able to open again briefly in December before this latest lockdown, we are once more closed again. We hope everything is back to normal again very soon and for our VIP clientele to walk onto a packed dancefloor with the music pumping, and be reminded of all the feelings and emotions that a vibrant nightlife brings. We cannot wait!”
