With genres ranging from soft comfortable lounge music, to Deep Electronic to Hip-Hop and Commercial; Hammer & Song lives up to the hype as Mumbai’s premium destination that dishes out some of the best music in the city. But what makes the music even more stunning is the quality of the sound experience thanks to the club’s awesome, amazing and comprehensive audio system from the world’s leading professional audio brand – Bose Professional! The massively effective and efficient Bose Professional scheme at Hammer & Song involves a carefully designed system comprising products from the brand’s famed line of install products which have been chosen specifically to meet the venue’s aural requirements that were derived from commissioning a detailed acoustical analysis of the space. Each of loudspeakers across both levels of the venue have been are strategically placed, and meticulously aligned and calibrated to ensure even distribution and optimum coverage of Bose’ signature crystal clear and impactful sound performance throughout the venue. The all Bose Professional loudspeaker scheme – designed and integrated by reputed Mumbai-based consultant Milind Raorane with key support from Bose Professional’s technical team – involves the deployment of multiple units of Assymetrical RoomMatch modules as the primary FOH reinforcement at the ground floor level, with multiple numbers of the RoomMatch RMU108 multi-utility loudspeakers distributed as fills.

The loudspeaker setup is powered through the ever powerful and efficient PowerMatch PM8500 amplifiers, with a unit of the ControlSpace ESP4120 control unit shouldering the complete loudspeaker processing and management gamut. Precise positioning of the speakers allows us to cover the entire space, and, also effectively solve aural issues arising due to the ceiling height of the venue.
