TORUS AND BLACKLINEX THE PERFECT PAIRING AT PUNE'S NEW SUPERCLUB
Boasting stunning interiors, an elite crowd and unmatched vibe, Xclusive Club & Kitchen has redefined the nightlife experience in the heart of Pune.
A variety of DJs rotate to deliver a heady mix of high energy commercial, Bollywood and EDM, delivered through a potent combination of Martin Audio’s premium TORUS and BlacklineX series, ensuring an elevated experience for their clientele. The place has been jumping since popular Indian rapper/DJ Raftaar headlined the spectacular launch, in mid-November.
“At Xclusive Club & Kitchen the audio experience was a critical part of the overall design,” said Shivam Vitekar, the venue’s AV consultant.
The main dance floor system features Martin Audio TORUS T1215 and TORUS T1230 constant curvature loudspeakers, delivering powerful and accurate front and midfield coverage with consistent tonal performance across the dancefloor. Deep and punchy low-frequency impact is produced using Martin Audio Blackline X218 and Blackline X118B Hybrid® Horn/Reflex subwoofers, creating the physical energy required for a high-intensity club environment such as this.
It’s a powerful and refined sound experience that we are proud to have engineered.”
Additional on-wall reinforcement in premium seating zones is provided by Martin Audio MA BLX 15 and V12 loudspeakers, ensuring balanced sound pressure levels without overwhelming the listening experience.
Amplification for the main PA system is managed using Linea Research 44M 10 DSP four-channel amplification, delivering high output with exceptional control and efficiency. System control, alignment, and final tuning are completed using Linea Research DSP in combination with other third-party devices, collectively providing an integrated system design that delivers a powerful, yet refined sound experience tailored for extended high-SPL operation in a premium nightlife environment.
Reviewing the performance, Mr. Vitekar adds, “The system delivers strong output with excellent control, ensuring the energy remains consistent across the venue. From live performances to DJ-led nights, the sound remains clean and immersive. It has elevated the club’s identity and guest experience.”
Added Dharam Koll, Pre-Design & Sales Engineer, VMT Enterprise, “The sound system delivers exceptional precision and balance, even during high energy sets. The TORUS arrays, paired with Blackline subwoofers, create tight, controlled low-end punch and crystal-clear highs. It’s a powerful and refined sound experience that we are proud to have engineered.”
“Working on the Xclusive Pune project was a smooth and collaborative experience with the system integrator and venue team,” confirmed Kekul Sheth, Head of Sales Distribution, VMT Enterprise.
“Every stage, from planning to commissioning, aligned perfectly with the shared vision. We are proud to be part of an installation that raises the standard of nightclub audio.”
Summing up, VMT director, Jeff Mandot, said “Xclusive Pune represents a significant step forward for professional club sound in India. This installation showcases what is possible when premium technology and expert engineering come together. It sets a strong benchmark for the future of high-performance nightlife venues.”
