We recently delivered a full AV renovation at the Famous King George pub in Oldham, a venue well known for its welcoming atmosphere, live sport, and community events.
The upgrade was designed to bring modern entertainment technology into every part of the pub, ensuring customers can enjoy great sound and visuals no matter where they sit.
In both the Raised Snug and the Lower Snug, 65-inch Samsung 4K hospitality TVs were installed, each mounted securely with Peerless brackets to provide clear, reliable viewing.
These spaces also received Cloud 6-inch 100v speakers, chosen for their crisp sound and consistent coverage.
Together, the upgraded screens and speakers ensure that even in the more intimate corners of the pub, customers experience the same high-quality atmosphere as in the larger bar areas.
The main bar was the focus of the renovation, with multiple screens fitted to guarantee visibility from every angle.
A 65-inch Samsung 4K TV, a 55-inch Samsung 4K TV, and a 32-inch Samsung TV were installed using a combination of Peerless and B-Tech brackets to suit the layout.
The smaller hospitality TV is equipped with a MySign digital signage player to display any marketing materials of the Famous King George’s upcoming events and promotional offers.
MySign’s cloud-based software allows Famous King George’s staff to schedule and update the eye-catching screen effortlessly with any entertainment displays or update time-based promotions without any additional hassle.
To match the visuals, the sound system was enhanced with Audac V8 loudspeakers, mounted with tilt-and-turn brackets for precision placement and powerful, immersive audio. This highly benefits the Famous King George’s customers, who can take in any live music or sporting action’s ambiance with perfect audio.
To further elevate the atmosphere, lighting effects were added, giving the main bar an energetic feel during weekend events.
The Rear Lounge was also upgraded to provide guests with the same high standard of AV as the rest of the venue.
A 65-inch Samsung 4K hospitality TV was installed alongside Cloud 6-inch speakers, creating a comfortable space with sharp visuals and reliable sound, perfect for watching games in a more relaxed setting.
Behind the scenes, a comprehensive RF distribution system was installed to deliver Sky Q and Freeview channels across all TVs. This included a high-gain aerial and an 8-way distribution amplifier, ensuring consistent HD signal quality throughout the building.
For audio, the pub now benefits from a multi-zone sound solution built around an Audac SMQ350 amplifier with DSP and an Optimal Audio four-zone mixer amplifier.
With dedicated volume controls for each area, staff can easily adjust sound levels to suit the occasion, whether it’s background music in the snug or high-energy audio in the main bar.
All of this technology is managed neatly from a 27U equipment rack, built off-site and installed with all amplifiers, signal distribution, and source equipment securely housed. To complete the system, a digital signage player was added, giving the King George the ability to display event promotions, offers, and live updates directly on screen.
