CERASONAR FOR RESTAURANTS & BARS
Evenly distributed music for comfortable conversation and an atmosphere guests enjoy spending time in. Discover invisible sound for the dining room and suitable speakers for your restaurant garden.
YOUR SOUND SYSTEM ↓
Music to enjoy. Conversation that feels relaxed. Smart Coverage is designed to create a harmonious layer of sound throughout the dining room: music accompanies the visit without demanding attention. The aim is acoustic comfort, without individual seats becoming unpleasantly loud or guests feeling they have to talk over the music.
Compact streaming speakers, such as those from Sonos, make it straightforward to bring music into a room. If a restaurant uses just a few units in corners or on shelves, listening distances vary considerably: music may already feel intrusive at the nearest table while barely reaching guests further away. Turning it up for the distant tables can make conversation harder beside the speakers. Distribution planned around the seating areas is therefore essential.
Several carefully distributed surface loudspeakers with broad dispersion help create more even sound coverage. Shorter distances to tables allow discreet background levels. Smart Coverage is planned in mono, making the complete music signal available at each position.
Enjoyable music at the tables, room for conversation. Coloured circles compare two planning radii; ceiling height, acoustics, installation and level adjustment determine actual coverage.
MUSIC & HOSPITALITY · RESEARCH FINDINGS
With slow background music, guests in a field study stayed an average of 80 rather than 57 minutes compared with fast music. The study examined 282 tables in one restaurant.
Malcman et al. (2024) ↗In a British restaurant study over 18 evenings, guests spent more per head with classical background music than with pop music or no music. A concrete finding on how music selection and the dining experience interact.
North, Shilcock & Hargreaves (2003) ↗The findings relate to the specific restaurants and music conditions studied.

An aperitif, a dessert, a second glass: even a few additional orders can matter commercially. Explore what your own assumption would mean for your business.
Once professionally installed, the loudspeakers disappear beneath the wall or ceiling finish. Materials, lighting and furnishings retain their visual presence.
The dining room needs no visible loudspeaker boxes, grilles or fabric coverings that can collect dust and dirt. With properly planned installation, speaker wiring is concealed within walls or ceilings too. The result: clear surfaces without additional brackets or exposed speaker cables.
Restaurant studies identify effects of musical style and tempo on spending and length of stay. They do not establish a fixed revenue increase from any particular loudspeaker system.

When walls, ceilings and lighting are being redesigned, speakers and cable routes can be considered from the outset. Music becomes part of the interior concept, planned around the furnishings, seating areas and day-to-day operation.
YOUR SOUND SYSTEM ↑01
When walls, ceilings and lighting are being redesigned, loudspeaker installation can be coordinated with the interior works from the start. Plan cable routes, loudspeaker positions and finishes with your specialist partner.
02
Passive loudspeakers connect to the amplifier by loudspeaker cable. The cs-150smart2 offers LAN and wired audio inputs, allowing a wired music source connection as well. Wi-Fi remains an optional streaming connection.
03
Smart Coverage for the dining room, Smart Garden for outdoors: calculate both areas together. Loudspeaker layout, levels and operating hours are planned for the location.
A quiet lunch, a lively evening at the bar, music in the restaurant garden: each area has its own requirements. Plan speaker distribution, listening levels, control and operating hours together. Identify areas requiring separate level control in the initial project brief.

Send us your floor plan, ceiling height and a few words about your restaurant. New build or renovation? Subtle background music or lively evenings too? We will discuss suitable speakers, amplification and the next planning steps with you.
S is for subtle background music, M offers more headroom and L supports high listening levels. MAX adds speakers for denser distribution; + adds bass. The areas shown are illustrative starting points. Ceiling height, seating areas and the desired level determine the actual design.
Yes. A renovation is a good opportunity to assess the installation. Speaker positions, cable routes and wall or ceiling construction are coordinated before finishing work begins. The suitable installation method depends on the existing structure.
A subwoofer adds low-frequency support and can be useful for a fuller musical presentation. Whether it suits your concept depends on the music, room and desired listening level. The + versions in the calculator include the corresponding bass addition.
The set price covers the listed system components in EUR excluding VAT. Installation, surface finishing, cables and accessories are additional. You can include these costs in the calculation. A project quotation is tailored to your installation requirements.
