Ibiza opens with $500,000 ITI Audio sound system →
Pleasure Palace
As the centerpiece of any club, both for its ability to literally move the crowds and attract top DJ talent, the audio system involved a critical decision-making process by the ownership. According to Adam Weiner of ITI, the installer for Ibiza along with partner Bill McClure, the process started with a product demonstration for the owners. Mike Scarfe of MHA Audio in Hagerstown, MD set up demos of several brands, but Martin Audio impressed the owners the best.
Given the size of the club and all of the different areas that had to be covered, the installation was challenging from the beginning. “It was a design-build project and we started working with the owners about two years ago, just working through various possibilities, what system was going in to the room,” Weiner said. “From the beginning, it was important to them that the system had top-quality equipment for sound and lighting.”
