The Beefy Boys are an award-winning burger team hailing right here from our hometown of Hereford. Starting out from a BBQ and a back garden, the boys have progressed their hobby from pop-up shops to championships and have recently acquired a new permanent premises to operate from. We had the pleasure of providing the sound system.

The new restaurant features an industrial interior design, with a range of woods, metals and artistic décors, all assembled and sourced from local companies and Hereford College of Art graduates. When Christian came to us on King St and gave us an indication of what they were looking for, the Bowers & Wilkins 686 S2 seemed like the most fitting performer for their requirements.

The 686 S2 from Bowers & Wilkins is easily integrated within any interior, with its unobtrusive and compact profile and choice of dark or light finish. The Bowers signature yellow cone visually compliments the Beefy Boys' choice of vintage light bulbs, glowing warmly from the ceiling; while the black ash wood effect allows the speaker to seamlessly sit beneath the dark ceiling without drawing too much attention.

Sonically, the 686 S2 is able to deliver a distortion-free, high fidelity sound performance at both quiet and louder volumes. This makes it ideal for composing a truly immersive atmosphere. As the 686 S2 is a quality loudspeaker, even when music is played at louder volumes conversations between guests are still clear and easy to hear, while the overall ambience of the restaurant is upbeat and as pleasant as the food being served.

Each pair of speakers is fed via Sonos Connect:Amps, all stored in a cupboard out of sight and out of mind as the Sonos is controlled wirelessly via a smart device. We set-up zones in which the Beefy Boys are able to play the same or different music in each area, as well as adjust the volume of each pair of speakers either independently or simultaneously.

The Sonos app is famously simple to operate and offers support for integrating streaming services like Spotify, Deezer, Tidal, SoundCloud and BandCamp, while also being able to talk to any music files sat on your network either on a computer, NASdrive, or your iOS/Android device.

We're proud to be one of the many Herefordshire-based independent businesses associated with the Beefy Boys. Definitely try out one of their award-winning burgers and if you like the music - come and see us on King Street and try out some award winning sound systems.
