Rising over stunning vistas, the Taj Lakefront boasts exquisite accommodations, world-renowned dining, and unparalleled event spaces. Yet, whispers echoed where laughter should bloom as one element remained unfinished, the audio/visual experience. Recognising the integral role played by sound and vision, the 5-star hotel sought innovative solutions to offer their patrons, be it for banquet halls, meeting rooms, conference rooms, or even the centralised background music.
Taj Lakefront entrusted Syntel Enkay, the telecom arm of Arvind Limited, with the task of establishing a new standard in experiential comfort through this turnkey project. To achieve this, Syntel Enkay joined hands with T2 Consultants and HARMAN, facilitating a smooth deployment of AVSI, security, voice, and IT systems across the property.
After conducting a rigorous technical assessment and need analysis, a customised solution made up of tech from AKG, AMX, BSS, Crown, and JBL Professional was implemented. These were selected to provide scalability, interoperability, high performance, and flexibility, all while creating a reliable design blueprint for the future. The aim was to leverage technology that enhances every guest interaction.
In key areas such as the main lobby, reception, restaurants, and lounges, the team utilised a combination of high-performance audio solutions. This included the installation of discreet full-range ceiling speakers, like the JBL Control 12C/T and coaxial two-way ceiling speakers such as the Control 16C/T, powered by the reliable JBL CSA series amplifiers. These offer superior sound reproduction and a wide 130 to 110-degree coverage, seamlessly integrating into diverse architectural environments.
A different approach was required for all outdoor event spaces and terraces, with the installation of weather-resistant JBL Control 23-1 and Control 25-1 outdoor wall-mounted speakers. To increase the audio reach in locations where wall-mounting wasn’t possible, like the garden and pool, JBL Control 85M Coaxial Mushroom Landscape speakers were deployed to bring sound to guests in the open air.
If those guests moved away from the outdoors and sauntered into their rooms, they would discover effortless control over audio, lighting, climate, and entertainment with the AMX MD-702 touch-operated control panel, their integrated hub for personalised comfort.
If they chose to explore the conference or meeting rooms, a comprehensive suite of technical solutions greeted them. Conference rooms were equipped with the JBL CSS8004 ceiling speakers, along with AKG CGN99C condenser gooseneck microphones, guaranteeing clear audio for both indoor and outdoor events. Larger event spaces were equipped with JBL AM5212 speakers, paired with JBL ASB6115 front-loaded vented subwoofers.
For impactful business presentations, the AKG WMS470 Presenter Set wireless microphone systems were installed, offering the presenter with portability and ease of use. A range of video receivers and transmitters, such as AMX DXL-RX and AMX DXL-TX, were also incorporated for seamless sharing of content from laptops or tablets directly to the 4K video systems.
Furthermore, vocal-centric occasions like weddings were facilitated by AKG WMS470 Vocal Set C5 systems. To effectively manage all of this, AMX ACR-5100, a powerful meeting space collaboration system, and AMX NMX-PRS-N7142, an all-in-one presentation switcher, were installed. This ensured centralised control of audio/video content and sources over an IP network, especially with the deployment of BSS BLU-100 signal processors for efficient signal distribution, and BSS EC-8BV devices that enabled hotel staff with remote adjustment and configuration capabilities. The celebratory mood was amplified by lighting from Martin Rush MH 5 and MH 6 along with the Rush Scanner LED.
The intention of this entire project was to ensure the chosen systems exceeded the client’s hopes, to weave a smattering of sounds throughout the Taj Lakefront and deliver unmatched interactions to each visitor.
Mr. Jitesh, Taj Lakefront, lauded the team’s relentless efforts in deploying cutting-edge audio/visual systems. He proudly states, “The integration team of Syntel by Arvind team has worked tirelessly to achieve this final solution, and we’re proud to announce that the output surpasses all expectations.”
