The secret behind the acoustics at TODOS Restaurant in Gwalior

The secret behind the acoustics at TODOS Restaurant in Gwalior

In the city of Gwalior, known for its growing gastronomic and cultural activity, TODOS Restaurant stands out as a space that combines dining, contemporary design, and a socially focused approach centred on outdoor events and carefully constructed indoor environments. Its layout is divided into two clearly differentiated areas: a spacious terrace that serves as the main area for music and social gatherings, and a more contained interior where acoustics depend directly on the architecture and the constant flow of guests.

This duality makes the installation particularly interesting from a technical perspective. Each area presents its own requirements in terms of directivity, sound pressure level, and tonal stability, necessitating the selection of systems capable of maintaining a coherent listening experience in both environments. To meet these demands, solutions from two of our product families were chosen: JUNO and WCX enclosures for the outdoor area, and BS enclosures in combination with an HR subwoofer for the interior.

The terrace functions as an open stage subject to environmental variations, audience movement, and fluctuating sound pressure levels depending on the type of event. Such spaces require enclosures capable of projecting with controlled directivity, withstanding outdoor conditions, and maintaining tonal stability even during extended periods of use. To address these needs, WCX and JUNO-8 cabinets were deployed, paired with a Marine Grade HR-218/20MG subwoofer, specifically designed for outdoor applications. This combination allows wide-area coverage with controlled dispersion, ensuring intelligibility and stable musical reproduction without the need to excessively increase the overall system level.

In the interior area, the acoustic behaviour changes significantly. The presence of absorptive elements and a smaller volume requires a compact, precise system capable of maintaining a balanced response for music playback. In this space, BS-10 enclosures were installed alongside an HR-218/20 subwoofer, a configuration that provides controlled low-frequency reinforcement and a well-defined sound image without interfering with the audience experience. The birch construction and rotatable waveguide of the BS-10 deliver stable directivity, which is essential in environments where listeners are in close proximity.

The final integration of the system was carried out with the aim of maintaining a homogeneous sonic signature between the interior and exterior. The symmetrical dispersion of the JUNO series, the controlled behaviour of the BS enclosures, and the linearity of the HR subwoofers facilitate smooth transitions between areas, regardless of occupancy or environmental conditions. The system guarantees a stable response under any operational condition, maintaining precise control over directivity and ensuring coherent reproduction even with increased sound pressure levels. This ensures that each area of the space receives exactly the acoustic performance projected in the design, meeting the established coverage and uniformity criteria.

Beach bar Lawn Canggu in Bali

Beach bar Lawn Canggu in Bali

The Lawn Beach Bar, located on the beach of Canggu (Bali), is one of the island’s most iconic leisure spots. It blends music, cuisine, and direct ocean views in an open-air setting, featuring wooden architecture, high ceilings, and semi-covered areas. As an outdoor venue exposed to high temperatures, constant humidity, and direct salt air, its sound system demands more than just acoustic quality, it requires durable, stable solutions capable of delivering a coherent audio experience throughout the day.

A demanding outdoor installation by Sontastic

The installation project, carried out by our technical partner Sontastic, called for a sound system that could provide high-performance audio while maintaining structural integrity under the harshest conditions. The solution came in the form of a fully integrated ecosystem of Lynx Pro Audio products, engineered specifically for outdoor sound system installations.

Strategic selection of Lynx Pro Audio products

The technical approach focused on achieving uniform coverage, high speech intelligibility, and a full frequency response using components designed to perform reliably in challenging environmental conditions.

The system was designed to deliver consistent vocal clarity and even sound distribution across the venue without interfering with the architectural aesthetics of the space. To achieve this, Sontastic integrated three of its most versatile product lines for outdoor applications: the JUNO series, the WCX series, and the HR subwoofers in their MG (Marine Grade) version, all selected for their reliability, durability, and acoustic performance in open-air environments.

Main Coverage: JUNO Series

For the open and semi-covered areas, JUNO loudspeakers in 6” and 8” versions were used. This series is specifically developed for outdoor sound reinforcement. With an IP46 rating and heat-resistant components, JUNO delivers consistent performance even in harsh environmental conditions. Its symmetrical coverage pattern ensures clear sound distribution across wide areas without the need for excessive sound pressure levels.

WCX Series

For areas with more directional needs WCX weather resistant coaxial cabinets were installed. These compact models offer clear and controlled vocal reproduction, reinforcing the sound precisely without interference or disturbance. Their design allows for seamless acoustic and visual integration with the surrounding architecture, which is key for maintaining overall system coherence.

Low-end support: HR-18/10 MG subwoofers

To complete the system, HR-18/10 MG subwoofers were added. Built for outdoor use, these subwoofers feature enclosures, hardware, and electronics designed to withstand humidity, high temperatures, and salt exposure without compromising frequency response linearity.

In open-space audio applications, the goal is not just to produce sound, but to guarantee long-term, consistent performance. It starts with the selection of purpose-built components capable of operating efficiently under extreme conditions, ensuring the durability and integrity of the professional outdoor audio system over time
