Our best-in-class AV systems have been successfully implemented to provide optimal sound at large concerts and festivals, performance venues and professional sporting events.

By streamlining the deployment of our market-leading house brands, HARMAN delivers scalable solutions that meet specific needs as businesses evolve and grow.
BUILDING PREMIUM ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS
Before we begin designing effective sound and lighting systems for nightclubs, bars and lounges, it is vital to address a number of important questions. What kind of venue is being used for the installation? What types of performances are held in the space? What is the budget for building and implementing the solution? The following concepts are the foundation of the audio visual system design process.
