Audiotek and L-Acoustic in-situ
OMNIA Dayclub, Los Cabos, Mexico
OMNIA Dayclub, and Casa Calavera, are venues within the stunning Vidanta Los Cabos complex. We were asked to provide an exceptional nightclub sound within an open-air venue, whilst ensuring that noise spill to the surrounding areas of the complex was minimal. The solution was a multiple source L-Acoustics Kiva ll system. To deliver the best audio experience with as little noise pollution around the site. Comprising of four hangs of 6 x Kiva II with 2 x SB15m below each hang, plus the main sub-array of 6 x SB28 subwoofers situated in the front of the DJ booth, the finished system packs a nightclub audio punch but still controls the surrounding spill.
The Kiva II system was the perfect choice for this Dayclub. The high SPL against its size fitted in perfectly with the architectural design. The sound vision modelling was excellent and being able to visualise what the system could achieve meant we could be sure we would deliver the audio experience we wanted.

OMNIA Caesars Palace, Las Vegas
OMNIA Caesars Palace Las Vegas is, without doubt, the most talked-about nightclub in Las Vegas and across the clubbing world. The massive 75,000 square feet space is split over three floors with different themes to suit all tastes.
OMNIA‘s main room features multiple layers, an expansive dance floor, antique mirrors, and seats of rich leather – all underneath a gigantic kinetic LED chandelier that ascends, descends, morphs, and transforms to the beat of the night.
Grandeur and opulence were the keywords that describe what we were aiming to achieve with this project at OMNIA Nightclub. We had to design the entire audio, lighting, and video systems for the club, so it was imperative that we smashed it. The products we chose needed to be of the highest quality to create an immersive experience for guests in every room and on the outside terrace.
The main room audio is delivered by an L-Acoustics speaker system of ARCS loudspeakers and SB28 subwoofers for the mains and XTi loudspeakers for the fills. Whilst the feel of the second room – the intimate ultra-lounge – is very different the technology features L-Acoustics Arcs Focus and Arcs Wide loudspeakers with SB18 subwoofers.
Wet Republic, MGM Grand, Las Vegas
The brief was to create an ‘unbelievable experience for guests’ that would continue to position the venue at the forefront of Vegas’ day club scene. The original sound system had been in place for over 10 years, and, from the beginning, we knew that a brand-new system comprising L-Acoustics products would be the perfect match for Wet Republic.
We used L-Acoustics’ modelling software to maximise the performance of the system. The location itself presented several challenges due to the highly residential surrounding area, which also included guest accommodation, so they had to be aware of sound spillage and disruption, while also ensuring maximum performance and atmosphere within the venue. By using the modelling software, we were able to maximise high-energy audio on the more crowded parts of the club, and, for the quieter, private cabana areas, L-Acoustics X Series infill cabinets were supplied to provide good-quality sound and atmosphere.
In the main area of the club, we installed 18 L-Acoustics KARAiW two-way line arrays positioned L-R, along with eight L-Acoustics KS28 subwoofers. In the VIP areas, six KARAiW loudspeakers were specified, and the cabana benefits from 10 L-Acoustics X8W two-way passive enclosures, as well as six L-Acoustics SB18iW subwoofers. Amplification came from six L-Acoustics LA12X amplifiers and four LA4X amplifiers.
For Hakkasan, MGM Grand, Las Vegas we managed the design and installation of the audio, video, and lighting systems. We worked closely with the nightclub’s team to create a unique experience that would set Hakkasan apart from all other clubs on the Vegas Strip. Our goal was to create an immersive environment that would transport guests to another world, one that would keep them dancing all night long.
L’Acoustics KARA loudspeakers were deployed as near field DJ monitors. We used the renowned industry benchmark K series speakers as they provide clear power and adjustable coverage, designed for long-throw tours and installations.
Audiotek designed and supplied state-of-the-art lighting, sound, and video package for Mercantile Group’s latest offering in Dublin, which boasts an audio system that speaks for itself. L’Acoustics ARCS and SB28 subwoofers, all powered by L’Acoustics LA8 amplifiers.
OMNIA Dayclub is a large, and luxurious, venue that required an audio-visual system that was capable of meeting the high demands of such a large-scale venue. We delivered a system that exceeded all expectations enabling the venue to operate at extremely high levels and with total control. All resulting in an amazing one-of-a-kind dayclub! We used L’Acoustics industry-renowned subwoofers.
L’Acoustics professional sound design products have made them industry leaders. They provide exceptional short, medium, long-throw loudspeakers and subwoofers, ensuring a comprehensive range of versatile loudspeakers to fit all needs and audience sizes.
