Audio Installation at Le Pélican Yacht Club, Beirut

Jun 13, 2025 | Nightclubs & Bars, Our Clients

Located along Beirut’s marina, Le Pélican Yacht Club is a carefully curated venue that merges minimalist design with warm Mediterranean character. Conceived by architect Antoine Maalouf, the space reflects a consistent architectural language open: layouts, natural materials, and soft visual continuity throughout. Every design element, from finishes to lighting, contributes to a quiet elegance where function and form are equally prioritized.

In such an environment, sound integration is more than a technical requirement: it is about preserving visual harmony while providing a clear and uniform sound. The room needed a system capable of maintaining acoustic coherence without altering the architectural intent. To achieve this, Eltek, our renowned distributor in Lebanon, installed eight Lynx Pro Audio BS-8 loudspeakers were installed in the main interior areas.

The BS-8 is a compact passive full-range speaker designed for indoor fixed installations, especially in venues that demand both acoustic accuracy and visual subtlety. Each unit features an 8” low-frequency driver and a 1” compression driver mounted on a 90° x 60° constant directivity horn. With a sensitivity of 93 dB, the BS-8 provides sufficient output with a limited number of sources ideal for reducing hardware visibility in architecturally sensitive settings.

In this installation, all units were mounted at ceiling level using discreet brackets, allowing the system to blend seamlessly into the architectural framework without drawing visual attention. As a trusted expert audio-solution provider, Eltek has crafted a system that stays practically invisible while delivering natural, intelligible coverage throughout the dining areas.

Eltek’s installation at Le Pélican Yacht Club demonstrates how a system built around clear acoustic planning and appropriate loudspeaker selection such as the BS-8 by Lynx Pro Audio can deliver a high level of performance without compromising architectural integrity. It is a model of how professional audio systems can be applied with restraint and precision in design-driven environments.

Hard Rock Hotel Marbella: Outdoor Audio Installation

Jun 6, 2025 | Installations, Our Clients

For Hard Rock Hotel Marbella, music is not just part of the ambiance: it is a central piece of its brand identity. Located in Puerto Banús, this hotel combines contemporary design with a dynamic schedule of events, live performances and DJ sessions. Within this setting, the stage is a key space that requires an appropriate sound system to support the hotel’s daily activities.

Marine-grade finish: durability under demanding environmental conditions

Lynx Pro Audio was responsible for designing and implementing the speaker and amplification system, specifically tailored for high-traffic outdoor areas. The installation needed a solution capable of delivering balanced sound pressure, clear intelligibility, and stable performance throughout long operating hours. The technical choice focused on the HR series components, all finished in white and with Marine-grade versions to ensure resistance against moisture, sun exposure, and salty air without compromising the aesthetic of the surroundings.

The main coverage was handled by passive HR-1264 speakers with 12” drivers, controlled dispersion patterns, and 700 W AES power. These speakers are engineered to maintain consistent pressure and precise directivity, allowing them to cover wide areas without the need to raise volume excessively. They are especially effective in open spaces where clear ambiance is required without overwhelming acoustic presence.

Low-frequency reinforcement with HR-18 subwoofers

To reinforce low frequencies, the system includes HR-18 subwoofers, featuring 18” transducers and 1000 W AES power. Their extended response from 30 Hz provides a firm, controlled bass foundation, ideal for background music or more demanding sessions without upsetting the system’s balance or saturating the space.

Centralized amplification with XT-10K and Dante control

All amplification and processing is managed through a XT-10K unit, a digital 4-channel amplifier (4×3500 W) with integrated DSP and Dante connectivity. This solution enables the use of FIR filters, signal limiting, zone-by-zone control, and consistent response throughout the day. Additionally, its remote management capabilities simplify tuning and maintenance, especially in environments without dedicated technical staff on-site.

The result is a professional audio system perfectly adapted to the hotel’s real-world conditions. Discreet, efficient, and durable, this project demonstrates how a properly sized system can seamlessly blend into a premium environment without disrupting the design or guest experience. In spaces where image is everything, sound must also speak clearly.

Outdoor sound system installation at Rock Bar Bali

The distributor Melodia, together with its partner AV Sontastic, were the companies in charge of ensuring the correct distribution and calibration of the sound throughout the area using the most suitable coatings. The installation was a challenge given the exceptional conditions of the open-air site, extended along the edge of a cliff 14 metres above sea level.

Given the particularities of the installation, Melodia and Sontastic decided to install all sound systems in a weatherproof version, an option offered by Lynx Pro Audio for extreme installations of this type, where venues need special protection designed to withstand extreme weather conditions, such as sunlight, salt and water.

WCX-8 and HR-1596/7: Loudspeakers for outdoor use

Eight WCX-8 compact speakers have been installed along the bar, a versatile and modular two-way coaxial enclosure designed for outdoor applications. It has an 8″ coaxial speaker offering a 70º conical dispersion coverage and a power of 300 W AES. As reinforcement for different areas, 7 two-way HR-1596/7 enclosures have been installed, a full-range system with a power of 700 W AES. It has a wide coverage of 90×60º and a passive/bi-amplified selector, mounting a 15″ speaker together with a 1.4″ driver and a rotatable horn that allows you to choose the most suitable coverage angle according to the installation.

To reinforce the low frequencies, three HR-218/20 high-performance passive subwoofers have been installed, with two 18″ speakers in direct radiation low-reflex configuration.

Challenges of professional audio in open-air cliffside venues

With omnidirectional coverage and 1200W AES power, the weatherproof products have specific features for greater outdoor durability and to withstand harsher weather conditions: anodized aluminum logo for better durability, stainless steel grill also available in aluminum with protective coating and micro-textured paint, weather tape edges, acustex filter to prevent water and external elements from penetrating, 35 ppi acoustic foam to prevent dust particles from affecting internal components, waterproof cone protected on both sides, aluminum back plate with pressure gland for extra tight connection and stainless steel screws.

To amplify the sound, five Lynx Pro Audio TS series amplifiers have been installed on the south and north sides of the venue. These are high performance 4 channel mid/high power power amplifiers dedicated to the installation market capable of meeting the requirements of any installation from 300 to 2500W. Sontastic said: “A well designed audio system should cater to a variety of musical preferences.

Rock Bar Bali, nominated as one of the best hotel bars in the world, it is distinguished by its exclusivity and exceptional atmosphere, positioning it as an incomparable oasis.

Sound revamped at the Valencia Oceanographic aquarium with CXA-12 for outdoors

May 14, 2024 | Installations, Public Buildings

Oceanogràfic, the biggest aquarium of Europe, has recently renewed its sound equipment in the dolphinarium area, trusting once again in Lynx Pro Audio. 15 outdoor passive CXA-12 enclosures have been set up in the venue, supplied by Neec Iberia, the official distributor of the brand in Spain and Portugal.

Until now, this dolphinarium had a set-up of Ionic-100 column speakers distributed around the pool, in front of the stands, to improve vocal clarity; while several DRN-12 subwoofers were flown to reinforce the low frequencies.

From now on, 15 units of passive CXA-12 speakers suitable for outdoor use will be covering the sound of the dolphinarium, next to the columns of the stands. The CXA-12 is a constant curvature line array, designed to make basic multipurpose line array configurations, with a maximum of four cabinets.

These 15 cabinets have been distributed in 3 points with three cabinets in array configuration and another 3 points with two cabinets, with the aim of covering the extensive stands with clarity and power, so that both the explanations of the monitors and the music can be heard clearly in each performance.

Each CXA-12 enclosure is amplified with a total of 1400 W Class D and switching power supply, with a PFC system and DSP processor with linear phase FIR filters.

For the amplification of the cabinets, 3 XT-10K amplifiers (4-channel stage for installation with 4 x 25000W of power, 64-bit DSP and Networking AES67 connectivity option), a RS4-3000 amplifier (4-channel stage with power up to 500 W per channel and connectivity through 4 balanced XLR inputs) and a RS4-4000 amplifier (4-channel amplifier with power up to 1000 W per channel and connectivity through 4 balanced XLR inputs) have been set up.

Finally, ARK digital processors have been implemented, specifically an ARK-2026 (2 inputs and 6 outputs) and an ARK-7048 (with Ethernet, 4 inputs and 8 outputs) designed to offer intuitive and easy-to-use access for users.

Baptist church sound reinforcement upgraded in Nordhorn, Germany

Jun 8, 2023 | Houses of Worship, Installations, Our Clients

The Baptistenkirche Nordhorn, as its German name suggests, is a Baptist church located in Nordhorn, Germany. Tom Fuhrmann, Pro Audio consultant in Pan-pro GmbH, has been in charge of the church sound reinforcement.

Baptistenkirche Nordhorn is a religious community that aims to help others to know Jesus, to be inspired by him and to increase their faith in him. It is a community committed to the well-being of the people of its city.

The church needed to upgrade its sound systems for a clear voice reproduction and the installer decided to set up IONIC column speakers, which are designed for reverberant installations such as houses of worship. These column speakers are lightweighted, providing easy set ups in fixed installations.

The installer chose the following set-up: 3 x IONIC 100 for main area, 7 x IONIC 50 for senior space and under balcony, 1 x IONIC 18S all feeded by Yamaha MTX5D and RS4-4000 amplifiers.

Tom Fuhrmann stated: “It has been found that the IONIC series from Lynx Pro Audio delivers excellent results, specially in acoustically demanding rooms. Significantly improved speech intelligibility and a balanced sound image were decisive for the customer’s satisfaction.”

In white colour, these cabinets are a low profile, discreet column, melting in the church’s white environment. Fuhrmann stated that the customers “are happy with installation”.
