How to Keep Diners Happy and Staff Efficient at Your Restaurant

Imagine walking into a restaurant where the atmosphere is just as appetizing as the menu. Soft jazz music complements the low chatter of satisfied customers, and the aroma of freshly cooked meals fills the air. Now, imagine this idyllic setting disrupted by the loud clanging of pots and pans from the kitchen or blaring music from the bar area. The ambiance suddenly turns into a cacophony of discordant sounds. This is where the art of acoustic zoning comes into play for your New Orleans restaurant.

Acoustic zoning is the strategic use of commercial audio video to create distinct auditory environments within different restaurant areas. It's about more than setting the right playlist for your dining room. It's about making sure announcements or specials can be heard clearly without overpowering the background music. And most importantly, it's about enhancing the overall dining experience for your customers and facilitating efficient communication among staff.

Size Matters

Just how big is your conference room space? Size is a major deciding factor in choosing between a flat-panel display and a projector, and if you have a space that seats over 12 people, you’ll want to go with the latter. Sure, you could invest in the world’s largest flat-panel display—Samsung’s 110-inch Ultra HDTV—but the high cost and installation challenges make it far less attractive than an HD projector.

Instead of taking up an entire wall with a display, you have an easy-to-install projector on the ceiling that projects onto a pull-down screen, which can be customized to the dimensions of your space. This is also helpful for conference rooms that might have unconventional dimensions, providing a flexible solution that saves wall space.
