[B]Gare Porto:[/B]
When it comes to improving the listening experience in a tunnel Void Acoustics had some bright bright ideas for Porto's new club GARE PORTO - owned by the DJ Duo Freshkitos.
GARE features an all-Void system, designed to deliver an exciting, high impact sound throughout the club. The club's main room occupies a 35-metre tunnel, with a ceiling height of 10 metres and just 6 metres wide, with the system incorporating Void's signature design, the triple-horn Air Motion speakers, as well as the Stasys 8 dual 18" horn loaded enclosures. Friday nights alternate between the fast paced sounds of Drum'n'bass and House Music while Saturdays are devoted to Techno Music.
Considered one of the best clubs in Europe and now a favourite of so many artists in many different genres, Gare is the club in Porto where you go for the music and get to experience the alternative culture of the underground scene.

[B]The Sound System:[/B]
When it comes to improving the listening experience in a tunnel, Portuguese installer Raul Ribeiro of T2 Produção e Eventos and Void Acoustics had some bright bright ideas for Porto's new club, GARE Club - owned by DJs Freshkitos! GARE Club features an all-Void system, designed to deliver an exciting, high impact sound throughout the club. The club's main room occupies a 35-metre tunnel, with a ceiling height of 10 metres and just 6 metres wide, with the system incorporating Void's signature design, the triple-horn Air Motion speakers, as well as the Stasys 8 dual 18" horn loaded enclosures.
the main room is equipped with 2 x Air Motions, facing the audience, complemented by 3 x Stasys 8s. 2 further Air Motions provide an extra degree of intelligibility at the back, creating a virtual "square" of sound. Extra sub reinforcement is from a fourth Stasys 8 cabinet. The all-Void installation includes 2 of the compact Impulse 4ts for the bar area, which benefits from some sub leakage from the main dance floor area. The VIP room and wine bar are equipped with 2 x B12s and 2 x VSUBs, mimicking the main system set-up but with a lower SPL. A pair of Mycro 8s give the club's trendy entrance lounge a comfortable ambience, with comprehensive intelligibility, bringing guests into the Void sound field from the moment they enter the club. The DJ Booth was built around 2 x Air Tens and 1 x VSUB, in line with the many live acts performing at the Club, providing a powerful sound in a small package. Amplification throughout the installation is from Void's range of Kryo Dual power amps, and the system includes the Livedrive and Digidrive loudspeaker management systems.
