In our ‘humble’ opinion, a successful commercial audio install is one where you never get a callback.
While the venue owner focuses on how easily their staff can turn the music up or how clear the background audio sounds during a busy Friday night, you, the professional installer, are focused on hardware that can run 24/7 without breaking a sweat, at a price point that actually keeps your margins intact.
For a long time, the pro audio world and the custom installation world lived in completely separate boxes. But lately, we think those lines are blurring. If you’ve been sticking exclusively to traditional architectural brands for your commercial jobs, you might be missing a trick.
As a leading name in UK Audio Visual Distribution, we founded Dizztribution on a simple mantra: “For Installers, By Installers.” It’s actually become our tagline. We sell AV equipment that we ourselves use, trust and recommend on our own job sites. That is why we are increasingly championing Wharfedale Pro as our go-to solution for bars, restaurants and larger commercial spaces across the UK.
But why you ask? Let’s dive into why this legacy pro audio brand is earning a permanent spot in our commercial AV project tenders, and how it can help your next UK install.
When you install a sound system in a residential home, it gets used for a few hours a week. In a busy city-centre hospitality venue, that system is putting in a proper shift seven days a week. It’s subjected to staff o visiting DJ’s cranking the volume too high (because they never listened to your advise), damp environments and constant dust.
Wharfedale Pro comes from a heritage of live sound, touring rigs, and stadium audio. That means their components are inherently over-engineered compared to standard consumer or light-commercial gear.
You are getting commercial-grade drivers and crossovers designed to handle high SPL (Sound Pressure Level) without distorting or damaging. For bars and fitness studios where consistent, high-energy performance really matters, it gives you massive peace of mind.
One of the biggest headaches for an AV contractor tendering for a multi-zone commercial project can be sourcing gear from three different manufacturers just to cover different room dynamics. Wharfedale Pro solves that by offering a highly scalable ecosystem that works perfectly for both 100V line distributed systems and low-impedance high-performance setups.
We know what it’s like to be standing at the top of a ladder way after your shift was supposed to end trying to finish a commercial handover before opening day. A product that is a nightmare to mount or connect is a product that eats into your day and hurts your bottom line.
Wharfedale Pro gear is clearly built by people who understand the practicalities of a job site:
• Smart Mounting Systems: Their surface-mount brackets are intuitive, heavy-duty, and allow for quick angling and locking.
• Accessible Taps: Switching wattage taps on their 100V line gear is straightforward, saving you crucial minutes per speaker during commissioning.
• Rugged Enclosures: The build quality means they are robust enough to deal with the requirements of sites and commercial environments.
Choosing the right commercial audio hardware is only half the battle; choosing the right AV Equipment supplier is the other. That’s where we come in.
