Q-TAN (Crook, Newcastle)

When Q-Tan approached us for an audio system for their tanning salon, Void Acoustics was the perfect choice. From Void's line up of products, we chose a system that produces high quality audio and has good looks to wow customers and give them more than just a tan.

The street outside Q-Tan doesn't let on what a sleek hive of technology is to be found inside, but the salon boasts some of the newest, most advanced tanning machines in the north of England and with a fresh refit, the salon's reception area needed a sound system which not only looked amazing, but actually sounded great too.

Two Airten V3s and a Venu 212 sub look after the main area, with a pair of Cyclone 55s to cover the entrance. Time alignment on the Cyclone 55s helps to bring the system together so customers walk through near seamless audio from the front door reception. The Space is at a premium in the office area where the amplification and control were to be sited, but as the system is run from one Bias Q2 amplifier, very little rack space was needed. The system also includes a Powersoft WM Touch for control as well as being integrated into their network to give the staff control over wifi.

This system isn't just for background music, as well-known DJs grace the decks in the reception area from time to time.

Andrew Smith, owner of Q-Tan commented:

"When designing our tanning salon reception area we knew we needed a sound system that looks as good as it sounds. Void Acoustics was top of our list. We chose Audioserv Ltd for the installation, Pete was very knowledgeable and the installation ran smoothly. We've had so many comments from customers about the way the system looks and sounds, especially the Airten's! Our staff love the system, time at work is much more enjoyable when you are listening to a quality sound system! It's been money very well spent and we are going to add to the system in the near future."
