Belgian audio major Audac – since its landing its feet on Indian market directly a few months ago – is apparently making its impression stronger and stronger, with defining deployments of its prided solutions. Cinco – the all new resto-bar in Pune – is a latest case in a point.
Locally based Touchwood Automations took the honours for the distinct deployment.

Cinco is Pune’s all new resto-bar and patisserie that promises to be a treat for all the five sensory elements. The 750-square meter-space developed in Central Pune, offering a tantalizing f&b for all palates, also boasts of a uniquely vibrant ambience that augments its fine-dining variety.
The venue is split into three distinct areas: a 280 square meter Club; an outdoor garden area; and a patisserie- all having their own unique offerings.
Locally based AV solutions provider Touchwood Automations was brought in for weaving a vibrant audio ambience, in the early stages of the venue creation itself with the wiring and venue planning still in the making.
The project brief simply specified the need for higher sound pressure level in the Club area to accommodate DJ sets and for coverage to continue into the outdoor garden. Meanwhile, the patisserie was to be quieter, with the option to have its own music selections.
Live gigs occasionally take place in the garden, requiring a PA system and stage monitors to connect to the installed sound system. During these concerts, the music in the club will come from a separate source.
With all these desires, Touchwood Automations realized that their job wasn’t going to be easy. Having gone through more than a dozen of options they realized AUDAC was the best solution for them and they finalized the design with the products of AUDAC.
In the club, it was important to create high volumes. Therefore, the Touchwood team installed two units of FX3.15 high-output cabinets together with two units of FX1.18 High-output bass cabinets. This guarantees enough power to provide the ideal sound. The speakers in the club are powered by two units of SMQ500 WaveDynamics quad-channel amplifiers while the subs are driven by an SMQ750 quad-channel power amplifier with WaveDynamics technology. To use the entire space, they also installed a pair of PX112 high-power speakers that are powered by an SMA500 WaveDynamics dual-channel power amplifier.
The garden area needed to be equipped with speakers that reproduced true-to-nature music for the live gigs. They decided to install as many as eight units of WX802_O outdoor wall speakers which are specially designed for outdoor use. The speakers outside are powered by an EPA254 quad-channel amplifier.
For the patisserie area it was very important that the speakers were invisible. For this reason four CELO6 high-end slim ceiling loudspeakers were installed. With its borderless Slimline grill design, these CELO speakers become nearly invisible when mounted. The CELO6 speakers are powered by an EPA104 quad-channel amplifier.
With this full AUDAC installation, one of the five senses is truly fulfilled by delivering a great audio solution.
