HIDDEN SPEAKERS & LIGHTING CONTROL MONTECITO, CA

When we were contacted by Joel Benjamin with Bysun Construction. He shared a set of plans for a retail space with some very unique needs. They need incredible sound and not a single speaker could be seen. They need complicated lighting with no visible switches or occupancy sensors. The specification also requested other networking and data features such as Shopper Track. The final challenge is that it must be easy to use. System Engineer Wyatt Olsen with Ultraviolet AV, Santa Barbara designed a system that contains 4 hidden speakers, 8 zones of “Smart Lighting” Data & Communications and a system to control it all.

• Audio

We’ve installed 4 hidden “Mud Over” speakers by Stealth Acoustics. These speakers are completely invisible and completely disappear into the drywall. This preserves the incredibly high detail finish on the ceiling without seeing anything. Even though you cannot see these speakers, sound quality is not compromised. We are simply using a SONOS Amp to power these speakers with a customized music server for their licensed music. Goop controls the playlists and remotely changes them as they desire. The Crestron control system allows them to set the mood just right.

• Lighting Control

This small shop has 8 zones of lighting. The designer requested 6 presets for different times of the day. These lights are automatic and change to the correct settings, at the correct time, automatically. The lighting system we installed is a panelized lighting system by Crestron. The Crestron CLX Lighting system is the most advanced lighting system available today. We are using Crestron Pyng to control it all. This easy to use interface makes the entire system operational from a local iPad of remotely for the managers.
