Spotlight: The Oklahoma Zoo Amphitheater
The Oklahoma City Zoo Amphitheatre, a popular open air performance venue, faced a pressing challenge: delivering high-quality sound for a diverse range of musical genres while minimizing noise for nearby residents. To address these needs, SaveLive, the venue management organization, partnered with Miller Pro Audio and K-array USA to install a Firenze Concert system. For the 2024 summer season, the lineup included Legends of Hip Hop (Ice Cube, E-40, and Bone Thugs-N-Harmony), Blues Traveler, Howard Jones, Flaming Lips, Slightly Stoopid, CAKE and Benson Moore, among others.

Spotlight: Miami's culinary scene heats up with Sparrow and Habibi
DRVCS AV, in partnership with K-array USA, has recently completed two high-profile restaurant installations at upscale global inspired restaurants in Miami.
Sparrow Italia at Moxy Miami Wynwood: The newly opened Sparrow Italia, a Mediterranean-inspired culinary hotspot by hospitality group Noble 33, now boasts an advanced K-array audio system. The installation features a range of K-array products, carefully selected to complement the hotel's modern aesthetic while delivering even sound distribution throughout the restaurant.
Habibi Miami River: In a similar installation, DRVCS AV has equipped Habibi, an upscale French-Moroccan supper club, with a stellar audio setup. Habibi's vibrant ambiance, which includes a tented ceiling and nightly performances by belly dancers, henna artists, and drummers, is enhanced by a multi-functional audio system. This versatile system delivers clear, balanced audio, whether providing background music during dining hours or higher energy sound for late-night DJ sets.
Both projects demonstrate how advanced audio technology can complement modern luxury and elevate social experiences in the hospitality sector. For audio professionals, these installations serve as prime examples of integrating powerful sound systems into aesthetically driven spaces without compromising on design or functionality.
