Tucked away in Doylestown, Pennsylvania’s charming historic district, Frost Lounge provides professionals a refined space to unwind, connect, and be inspired. Through thoughtful libations, global small plates, and an elevated yet welcoming atmosphere, Frost facilitates authentic human connection.
When the Executive Chef and Head Sommelier of Frost sought to bring their hospitality expertise to Doylestown, they recognized sound needed to be an integral part of the lounge’s identity. To implement their vision for an immersive social oasis, the pair tapped our team at Legend Sound Systems to design an audio solution as artfully crafted as Frost’s cocktails and interiors.
After analyzing Frost Lounge’s open layout and multiple activity zones, Legend proposed dividing the space into three distinct audio sections. This allows staff to customize music and volume for each area’s unique purpose. The central bar and dining section forms one zone where guests can mingle over drinks and the eclectic tapas selection.
The second zone encompasses a recessed lounge with plush seating for deeper networking conversations. Finally, the perimeter creates a third zone for those desiring a more private experience away from the action. Independent controls empower staff to match the sonic ambience with the mood in each section.
We also recommended integrating a DJ booth to drive weekend energy. Frost’s zoned system includes varied media inputs to enable seamless DJ transitions or background playlists. Capacitive touch panels placed strategically behind the bar allow bartenders to tweak settings without abandoning guests.
To bring Frost’s zones to life, Legend equipped the space with QSC amplifiers plus tunable JBL loudspeakers and subwoofers. This combination delivers crisp, true-to-life audio at any volume. Directional speakers distribute sound evenly throughout the expansive yet irregular space.
While quality components establish strong audio foundations, our team nuanced the design through careful positioning, tuning, and programming. Specialized DSP and EQ processing refines audio for clarity and warmth without harshness or listener fatigue – even during late nights.
Limiters safeguard sensitive gear from overexertion yet still permit full-throttle sound when the lounge is packed. We also invested hours testing equipment to perfectly dial in the right tonal balance and coverage. Ongoing training gives the staff confident control and creative license.
Thanks to Legend’s meticulous audio curation, Frost provides professionals an environment for connection that engages all the senses. Lush surroundings, cultured music, and inspired cuisine coalesce into a multi-textured experience.
Frost Lounge stands testament to visionary entrepreneurship and passion for hospitality. Through dedication to their craft, Frost has created a concept that defies conventions and forges new possibilities for modern social life.
We congratulate the entire Frost team on the lounge’s resounding success. Legend is grateful to collaborate with innovative owners who appreciate how tailored sound enhances guest enjoyment and shapes unique, unforgettable atmospheres.
