Las Vegas (January 2008): The Las Vegas Venetian’s new TAO Beach club, designed and installed by Bob Athey and Frank Heinrich of FBP Group features Dynacord Variline VL262, Cobra subwoofers, D-Lite D 12, and system drive via IRIS-Net control.

A new addition to the mega-hotel’s popular TAO nightclub, TAO Beach is the top pool party in Vegas, featuring a DJ booth, bar, lounge and luxury cabanas surrounded by palm trees and opulent drapery. A serious club sound system was necessary to maintain TAO’s high standards, which attract international DJ stars like Erick Morillo and Paul Oakenfold, and A-list celebrities like Mariah Carey, Kanye West, Heidi Klum, Jay Z, Jessica Simpson, and Michael Jordan. To keep the aesthetic ambience intact at TAO Beach, big, black 15-inch two-way boxes were not an option. The solution? A system design including a brand new loudspeaker line ¬– Variline – from Dynacord.

The dual high performance neodymium 6.5” woofers and 1” compression driver in the VL 262 provide audio for heavy-duty, high SPL applications, along with multi-functional hardware accessories for fixed and mobile applications to ensure ease-of-use and versatility. 

The complete Dynacord system solution at TAO Beach blends with the design elements of the space; for this installation, the speakers are color matched, and nestled discreetly in the drapery but fill the entire pool area with sound. Six Dynacord Cobra-2 Subs provide additional low end support; 12 D-Lite D12 full range cabinets supplement the surrounding VIP areas and hot tub deck. Powered by five Dynacord Power-H 5000 remote control DSP amplifiers with RCM26 modules, FIR presets optimize each loudspeakers performance, and continuously monitor every voice coil in the system to ensure reliable operation.
