The new location of Trio, a nightclub in downtown Charlotte, NC opened by owner Eric Gussin, who also founded and operates the original club of the same name in Charleston, SC, is equipped with a sound reinforcement system utilizing E11EVEN Sound by DAS Audio components.
“We were the first installation of E11EVEN Sound by DAS Audio in Charleston, and we love that system, Gussin says. “The Charlotte club is a larger space, so it made sense to do the same thing and just get a bigger system.”
Designed by DAS Audio Hospitality and Nightclub national sales manager John Fiorito with equipment provided by Randy White of Washington Music Center and installed by Guillermo “Willy” Rodriguez of Willy-Tech Services, the system includes eight ES-158 three-way 15-inch loudspeakers augmented by eight DAS Audio ARTEC 326 two-way dual 6-inch loudspeakers and four ARTEC 310.96 two-way 10-inch loudspeakers.
The low end is reinforced by six ES-221 dual 21-inch subwoofers and a pair of ES-212 compact dual 12-inch subs. Eight DECO-6-TB coaxial 6-inch ceiling loudspeakers cover the peripheral areas. Audio power is provided by four EP-10K4 4-channel amplifiers, six EP-14K4-blue 2-channel amps, a P-2K4 4-channel amp and an EP-6K4 4-channel amp. System tuning was done by Geovanni Ortiz of the DAS Audio applications team.
The club’s head DJ, Angelo Villaraut, states, “The sound is amazing – you can feel it, but it’s not hurting you. You can still talk to the person next to you. It’s one of the best sound systems I’ve ever heard.”
