Any advanced technology involved ?

Rather a conventional design considering the idspiral cutting edge of utopia ethos

Budgetting must have been fun.

How many zones ?

Thanks everyone, we appreciate all the good comments. Really enjoyed this job and we are pleased with the end result, tho it was the most challenging thing i've done, having to select and purchase parts, design all the cabs, build the system and fit it in two weeks whilst doing our day jobs! We live to tell the story besides almost killing ourselves LOL. As this is a cafe bar, the bass is more than enough and extends down to 30Hz through a 2.4m long dual horn/BP hybrid. The tops for the main and downstairs room have a specially mixed metalic paint to compliment the lovely green but we didnt use foam as personally I think that just being able to see the drivers makes all the difference. In total there are 4 x 10"+6"+ bullet and 4 x 8" + bullet which are swivel bracket mounted, 2 x 8" coaxials door mounted and one 180 degree outside cab containing 4 x 6" coaxials which is top hat mounted and there are 8 zones over the whole setup and one sub. Unfortunately we cant share designs or ingredients with you but i'm sure you understand!

Where are you crossing over between the subs and the satellites? Interested to know what kind of response you're getting at the low end with the 10". Are the 6" in a selaed chamber, looks like it but I guess they could be using part of one of the ports?

The 10" satellites are tuned at 65hz which is where they are crossed over.  We used sealed back 6" drivers as they sound tighter, also saving room and time.  In the main room the 8" satellites are just used for monitoring and stage feedback.
