LONDON, United Kingdom, December 2023 – Tucked away in the dynamic epicenter of London’s West End, Stereo Covent Garden is an exciting new addition to the Covent Garden neighborhood, acclaimed for its luxury fashion, beauty stores, and award-winning restaurants and bars. Located beneath the historic Market, Stereo Covent Garden is the creation of Experimental Group, which is known for luxury hospitality spaces throughout Europe and the United States. With a rich blend of music, cocktails, and dining inspired by the vibrant late-night cultures of New York and London, Stereo Covent Garden offers a multi-sensory experience made of signature drinks and live music. A vibrant and eclectic music program is offered each night, beginning with a house band providing relaxed vibes before the stage is turned over to a rotating series of resident DJs.
The interiors of Stereo Covent Garden have been meticulously designed by London-based studio Afroditi, which has created a moody atmosphere for Stereo’s interiors, using lighting and mirrors reminiscent of the prohibition era. Considering the opulent interiors and the wide area to cover, it was crucial to design a compact sound system that could provide crystal-clear sound while also fitting within limited available space or diverting customers’ attention.
Solotech UK Group, a professional audio integrator, and L-Acoustics Certified Provider, was appointed to design and install the lighting and audio solution for Stereo. Solotech chose a combination of L-Acoustics A Series and X Series as the ideal audio solution for this project to provide a versatile soundscape with optimal sound coverage for the various areas, which included a main stage, bar, DJ booth, and restroom, while remaining discrete and melting into the décor.
“We wanted a clean, clear, and precise soundscape,” explains Mikey Sorbello, Music Coordinator at Stereo Covent Garden. “We knew that L-Acoustics is renowned for its impeccable clarity, depth, and richness, and we were confident this would give Stereo Covent Garden an innovative sound.”
The main stage sound system consists of two clusters of six L-Acoustics A15 Wide with two KS21 subwoofers on either side of the stage. On the elevated bar, 10 compact 5XT coaxial speakers are evenly distributed. Eleven X8 coaxial speakers serve as delay, bolstered by four SB10i subwoofers. The back room is equipped with five L-Acoustics X8 and two SB10i subwoofers, while the restrooms are fitted with 10 5XT. The DJ booth boasts two L-Acoustics X8, while performers on stage benefit from two X12 stage monitors. The entire system is managed by eight L-Acoustics LA4X and one LA12X amplified controller.
“This solution ensures that every note resonates throughout the space, enveloping audiences in a truly vibrant sonic experience,” says Sorbello. “The clarity and precision of our sound system truly embodies the values we uphold at Stereo Covent Garden. In short, we couldn’t be more satisfied, and every performance promises to be an unforgettable sonic journey.”
