DAS Audio Sets a Spirited Atmosphere at Miami’s Joia Beach Restaurant & Beach Club

A combination of systems from the series WR, Quantum, Altea and Factor 8 deliver a unique vibe at Joia´s beach oasis in Watson Island.

Consisting of a main restaurant, a Front of House station for the DJ, and an exterior bar area, the sound setup at Joia Beach Restaurant & Beach Club was designed and implemented by John Fiorito, DAS Audio of America’s Lead Design and Installation Manager for Nightlife and Hospitality. “The entire venue has its own media server for its regular source of music, Fiorito explained. “This capability is augmented by a DJ booth that has the capability to feed the primary restaurant system an alternate music source. In the main restaurant area, we deployed a combination of ten Quantum Q-43-T 1-way, full range loudspeaker enclosures configured in stereo, which are augmented by six Quantum Q-10 subwoofers in mono. This combination ensures high fidelity and true stereo imaging with solid low end punch that covers the area with rich, detailed sound.”

“The Front of House PA setup for the DJ is configured as mono point source and consists of four WR-8826 2-way point source enclosures augmented by four WR-151S subwoofers” Fiorito continued. “This station also has the capability to feed an alternate music source to the restaurant area by way of an easy connection using a stereo mini cable. For the exterior bar area, we installed four Factor 8 2-way, vented loudspeakers in a mono configuration along with one Altea-412A 2-way powered point source enclosure that serves as the DJ monitor.”

Working in close coordination with Fiorito was Emma Batchelder, the Marketing Manager for the Joia Beach Restaurant & Beach Club, who reports being very impressed with DAS Audio of America’s handling of the project, “John and his entire team at DAS Audio have been nothing short of amazing. They have delivered a world-class product that anyone would be incredibly proud of. Their consistent and continuous support is hugely appreciated—particularly in the fast-paced hospitality industry.”

The DAS Audio sound reinforcement system at Joia Beach Restaurant & Beach Club was installed during February. With the venue on the verge of opening its doors for business, Batchelder summarized her experience with the project, “Music is our heartbeat at Joia Beach, and DAS Audio has exceeded our expectations on every level, which is why we continue to work together on projects past, present, and future. We can’t wait to open our doors to Miami and share a product that both Joia Beach and DAS Audio can be incredibly proud of.”
