9 Prime: Restaurant Background Music & Displays

Project Requirements

9 Prime, a high-end steakhouse in downtown West Chester, PA, needed an advanced audio/visual system that would add to the ambiance while preserving the architectural integrity of the former bank where it was built. Haverford Systems partnered with 9 Prime to install a fully integrated A/V solution for both design and functionality.
The background music system was a critical component, requiring immersive, evenly distributed sound throughout the entire venue, including dining areas, bars, banquet rooms, vault rooms, and the speakeasy. The system had to remain discreet, with speakers blending seamlessly into the restaurant’s high ceilings and elegant decor. Additionally, it had to be easy for staff to operate, allowing for simple volume and content control across different zones.
The banquet rooms needed versatile displays that could provide high-quality visuals for events while maintaining a refined look when not in use. Lastly, 9 Prime required a flexible audio input solution to accommodate live musicians performing in the venue.

Solution

  • Background Music System: A Yamaha MusicCast system was installed with zoned audio capabilities, allowing different areas to have customized music and volume levels. Each space was equipped with a MusicCast Wireless Streaming Receiver, an audio amplifier, and precisely placed ceiling speakers for optimal audio coverage. The entire system is controlled via a wireless tablet, enabling staff to adjust settings effortlessly.
  • Frame Displays: Two Samsung Frame 84.5” Smart LED TVs were installed in the banquet rooms, offering flexibility for events and presentations. When not in use, the displays showcase artwork to maintain the refined aesthetic. Gold bezel frames were added to ensure the displays blended with the decor.
  • Live Music Integration: A stereo line-level audio connection was installed in the main-level dining area, providing musicians with direct input for their mixers. The input plate includes a Bluetooth connection, sending signals to the QSYS core over the network via Dante. Custom QSYS programming allows for easy volume adjustments, source selection, and room distribution.

Result

By delivering a fully integrated A/V solution, Haverford Systems helped 9 Prime create an unparalleled dining environment. The intuitive controls make managing audio and visuals effortless, while guests enjoy a refined ambiance that adapts to everything from intimate dinners to lively events. With this upgrade, 9 Prime reinforces its reputation as a premier destination in downtown West Chester.
