The challenge was to position transducers without disrupting the architecture. Timber ceiling louvres, lower white ceilings and dark parking ceilings each called for a different approach. The aim was to retain warmth and depth in music while keeping the installation discreet and coverage suited to each space.

Sound throughout. Equipment out of sight.
Yaftabad, Tehran · 6 retail floors + 4 parking levels
1401–late 1402 SH / Design & deliveryCommercial & Industrial Complexes
Modern Center Yaftabad
At Modern Center, sound needed to reach every floor while the equipment blended into the architecture. AVASH designed and installed a 75-transducer system across six retail floors and four parking levels, combining warm, dynamic music with a 14U central system and custom Persian-language control panels.
In the high retail areas, 8-inch, 60W Ecler VIC8X transducers were positioned behind timber louvres, with mounting positions and angles coordinated with ceiling openings. IC6 transducers were recessed into the lower white ceilings. Black eAMBIT106 transducers blended into the parking ceilings; their coverage allowed the planned count to be reduced from 36 to 28 across the four parking levels.

DAILY OPERATION
Control for day-to-day operation
The MIMO1212SG manages music and paging routes. Custom Persian-language panels bring the operator’s everyday controls into a clear, accessible interface.
Reliability proven in operation
From 1401 to late 1402 SH, the project brought audio quality and architectural integration together. The resulting system serves retail and parking floors with equipment coordinated with each space and Persian controls for everyday operation.
