Shizusan Shophouse & Bar reinforced through comprehensive audio system from Wharfedale

Music played at the fine dine resto ably reinforced through a audio system from Wharfedale commissioned by Dev Electronics

The new fine dine destination in Mumbai for authentic Asian food, Shizusan Shophouse & Bar scores high on multi-cuisine FnB, aesthetically appealing interiors and décor, energetic and youthful ambience.

Shizusan chose to equip their establishment with a world class quality professional audio setup and they entrusted one of the industry’s reputed one-stop-shop pro audio solutions provider – Dev Electronics.

The Dev Electronics team, represented by Ketan Shetty at the fore, took to the project instantly and devised a minimalistic yet efficient and impactful pro audio system architecture for Shizusan which involved deployment of products from Wharfedale which is one of India’s fastest growing brands in the pro audio market today.

Ketan shared “Looking at the dimensions of the space at Shizusan and following the brief given to us by the management, we knew instantly that using loudspeakers from Wharfedale Programme series, namely the 108T and the 105T would be ideal for the place. Not only are they compact and discrete which makes it extremely aesthetically pleasing, but they also pack a powerful punch and are absolutely spot on when it comes to performance and when combined with the Delta15 subs, the Delta18subs and the Titan12 sub, all of which have been evenly distributed across the venue floor for added powerful low frequency reinforcement. The restaurant becomes superlatively equipped to host even the most energetic parties in town! The management has also ensured that the venue is firmly equipped with world-class quality DJ gear, as the console area sports the industry standard Pioneer CDJ900NXS player/controller in addition to a Pioneer DJM900NX2 dj mixer. We’re extremely pleased to know the management’s feedback about the kind of sound quality that Shizusan experiences every time – efficient, superlative audio delivery, and we’re happy to have played our part well in helping the management with the perfect system for the place. It’s an amazing feeling to hear from the management how they and their patrons absolutely love the sound and music at Shizusan.”

The ground floor at Shizusan is designed as a sushi and cocktail bar with a few tables around and an interesting bar table. The ceiling too is hand painted and shows the changing of the seasons. The main dining level is located on the first floor which has high ceilings, large windows and lets enough light into the room to make it look lively.

The music is one of the grand features at Shizusan, as the place treats its patrons to a spectrum ranging from old school classic rock and retro to new age melodic rhythms, with the beat and tempo rising gradually as the night progresses into some groovy electronic music. In addition to the wide range in music, the fine dine resto also features a dedicated space to host live performances, with the most popular ones being unplugged nights and the happy spirited party vibes that usually fills the place during special performance nights and weekends.

The management at Shizusan Shophouse & Bar commented “Our patrons love spending time at Shizusan Shophouse & Bar not just because of the impressive food, beverage and service, but also being at the place is an instant mood pleaser thanks to the wonderful music we play here. And the music sounds so pleasing and appealing, thanks to the great system that we’ve got in place. Though minimalistic, the setup sounds fantastic and is more than able to support any kind of music and any kind of live performance with supreme ease. The guys at Dev Electronics have done a great job.”
