You can get a similar effect with a floating or semi-floating floor and a huge sub hanging from the ceiling. You have to tune it though.
If you are on the Bay Area, The Great Northern had a setup like that on the hallway at the entrance before the main floor. They use VOID for their soundsystem but I don't think that particular part of the setup is COTS.
- bburrito 4y agoThe Void gear is COTS including the Powersoft amps they use. You can set it up and it will work and it will sound amazing. But once you have Void’s guy out to tune it to your space? The sound blows you away. I think that guy has one of the most fun jobs I’ve ever seen.
- pvarangot 4y agoI don't think the subs hanging from the ceiling on the hallway in front of the bar are COTS. If they are it's not on their websites or catalogues. Like it may be the same cone but it's not the same enclosure or anchoring.
- fragmede 4y agothey actually had to turn down that system for being too loud. but at that level, none of the stuff is really COTS because it requires a ton of tuning due to each particular venue's layout and acoustics
- austinprete 4y agoDamn. Consider myself pretty into sound but have never heard COTS and Googling was less than successful :(
