Optimal Audio enhances Hotel De Zeevaartschool

Optimal Audio HotelDeZeewaartschool

Based in Domburg, the Netherlands, Pulse Audio Video recently completed a significant audio upgrade at the stylish Hotel De Zeevaartschool, in Vlissingen on the country’s south-west coast. Located on Vlissingen's iconic promenade, the beachfront Hotel De Zeevaartschool is housed in a former nautical college, offering guests rooms with sea views, city views or cosy Sailors' Rooms reminiscent of a sleeping quarters on board. As part of the audio transformation, the hotel required a solution that could deliver both background music in its dining areas and provide for events including parties and other gatherings.

The Optimal Audio system installed by Pulse AV features multiple zones equipped with the company’s Cuboid 8 two-way, full-range 8” loudspeakers, complemented by low-profile Sub 10 subwoofers. The compact nature of the Sub 10 means that they can be discreetly integrated into seating areas. For extra power during parties and other events, the Cuboid 8 speakers can be enhanced with a higher-powered Sub 15 subwoofer. Finally, other areas around the hotel are also equipped with Cuboid 5TX 100V transformer-equipped loudspeakers.

At the heart of the installation is a Zone 8 processor which controls each output of the Optimal Audio AMP series amplifiers powering the Cuboid and Sub speakers. The Zone 8 offers a full suite of audio controls for up to eight zones, with flexible signal routing, programmable presets and WebApp interface for easy system configuration. The result is an extremely user-friendly solution which allows the hotel’s non-professional AV staff to manage presets, microphone inputs and zone volume using a tablet or smartphone.
