Study: Great Fosters, Surrey |
|
 |
Outline
Gracing an estate of more than fifty acres in what was once the
heart of Royal Windsor Forest in Surrey, Great Fosters is the most
distinguished of hotels – a Grade One listed building combining
16th century grandeur and luxurious modern facilities. The Oak room
at Great Fosters is a prestige dining venue, which prides itself
on personal service, quality of finish, attention to detail and
inspired gourmet food. Background audio was required to enhance
atmosphere and audio mask some noises from nearby corridors.
Challenges
The installation and audio quality had to match or exceed these
top flight values, adding an extra dimension to the dining experience.
This required near invisible speakers, cable runs and crystal clear
audio. The control unit location was neatly positioned inside a
cabinet, which also required imaginative cable runs.

Technical
The system specification features proven selections from the adaptable
EV range. With the twin criteria of exceptional sound quality and
unobtrusive install, the choice was EV S40 monitors, customised to
blend with oak beam interior. Providing consistent, clear classical
and light jazz sound track is a hard drive music player, processed
by tuned Cloud amps with simple breakout controls.
Response
Richard, Great Fosters General manager was quick to notice the difference;
‘It’s a complete change and sounds very impressive. The
installation is neat and efficient and the quality maintains the standard
of ambience we wished for.’
