An HH Audio loudspeaker system was designed and installed by technology specialist Norsk Tele og Data at Casa Mia, an Italian restaurant located in Lillestrom, Norway.
Owner Antonio Lepore engaged with Norsk Tele og Data and AV specialist distributor CBK to create a specific ambience for his family-friendly restaurant.
Following a site visit and meeting with Lepore, Per-Øystein Berglund of CBK recommended HH Audio loudspeakers.
Mr Berglund said: “Casa Mia wanted a system that could reproduce audio as a ‘carpet’ in the restaurant, with a focus on very good coverage - the background music was to be present but not overbearing.
“I saw no phase problems in achieving this using a lot of loudspeakers - the soft furnishings and guests offer good sound absorption in the seating areas.
“We chose the HH Tessen TNi Series speakers for their all-round strengths. They’re well-designed to blend in with interiors and deliver excellent reproduction straight out of the box. They were easy to tune at Casa Mia to deliver warmth and clarity at relatively low levels.”
Norsk Tele og Data installed twelve HH Audio Tessen TNi-W6 6.5-in wall-mounted loudspeakers in the downstairs area of the restaurant and added a further fourteen upstairs.
Four TNi-W4 4-in speakers were used for the remaining upstairs area, home to lower ceilings.
Berglund continued: “The HH Audio solution provided Casa Mia with an extremely cost-effective solution, delivering high value for their investment. I believe they are very pleased with the performance of their new system.”
