Located in a 150-year-old former cotton mill in Lower Parel, Permit & Co. seeks to recreate the times when the liquor ban law was relaxed, as permits to drink alcohol on licensed premises. The client envisioned a high-energy bar, but at the same time, for people to be able to converse clearly.
The system was designed by AudioTechnik India™ to function seamlessly as both a high-energy bar and a speakeasy, delivering broad dynamic range, controlled dispersion, and consistent intelligibility. The system supports live performances, DJ sets, and background music, incorporating a distributed audio setup for uniform coverage across zones and a dedicated FOH configuration optimised for live events.

Presets were created on the LEA Professional CS1504 amplifier to achieve the desired sound signature and reduce signal chain complexity. The Optimal Audio Cuboid speakers provide focused coverage with minimal reflections. Their tight dispersion and rotatable horn enable precise projection onto the floor, minimising energy directed toward reflective surfaces and improving direct field coverage in the listening area. The low frequencies are handled by the HH Audio TNA-2800SA active subwoofer, while DJ and band monitoring is managed via the HH Audio TRE-1001 active speaker with onboard DSP. Speaker management is controlled through the HH Audio SP26 2-in/6-out DSP, and the HH Electronics Q16FX 16-channel analogue mixer handles live performances.
• Soft sound signature and balanced coverage across the venue.• The system blends seamlessly with the space, enhancing the guest experience without detracting from the space’s aesthetic.
The system delivers balanced tonality, controlled directivity, and clear intelligibility even at high levels—blending technical precision with a musically engaging experience.
