The Challenge
The owners of The Refinery aimed to enhance their venue’s distinctive ambience and elevate the overall dining and event experience. They needed a versatile audio solution capable of delivering crystal-clear sound for speeches and announcements, while also infusing dynamic energy into the dance floor and DJ area.
The Solution
Partnering with Brisbane Sound Group, The Refinery implemented a state-of-the-art L-Acoustics professional sound system (distributed by Jands in Australia and New Zealand). This immersive audio environment seamlessly complements the venue’s carefully curated culinary experiences, adapting effortlessly to the varying demands of each event, from intimate gatherings to high-energy celebrations.
“The X4i speakers were chosen because they are the best at delivering clear and expansive audio coverage for speeches and announcements; the X8 units boost the dynamic energy on the dance floor; the SB10i subwoofer enriches the sound with deep, punchy bass; and the LA2Xi monitors ensure precise control across the venue’s varying acoustic zones,” said Josiah Kerridge, Installation & Projects Manager at Brisbane Sound.
“We had an outstanding experience working with Josiah and the BSG team! They took the time to understand the challenges we were facing, listened carefully to our needs, and delivered a premium sound solution that exceeded our expectations,” said Rach Myers, owner and events manager at The Refinery.
“Our L-Acoustics setup has truly elevated the atmosphere of our venue, and now, every event we host is enhanced with superior sound, whether it’s for speeches, background music, or turning up the energy for a dance floor. We can’t recommend working with BSG enough!” she concluded.
