ADORN pendants from Martin Audio elevate audio in hospitality venues across Poland.

Martin Audio’s Polish distributor, Phono Media, has successfully deployed ADORN Series pendant speakers across a range of hospitality projects, installing ACP-55T solutions in several restaurants to deliver high-quality audio and clean aesthetics, while overcoming various interior-related acoustic challenges.

With Martin Audio’s signature sound characteristics, the ADORN series is a natural choice for background and foreground music systems that require superior audio quality from visually discreet, ultra-compact enclosures offering excellent value for money.

One of the standout projects is the Polish History Museum in Warsaw, a monumental building covering 45,000 square metres. Within its striking marble architecture, the Dialog restaurant reflects the building’s bold design language, with interiors heavily clad in stone slabs.

This presented two major installation challenges: conventional wall mounting was impossible due to the surfaces, and there was a strong requirement to preserve the visual integrity of the space. Phono Media opted for a suspended solution using the Martin Audio ADORN series, installing a total of 20 ACP-55T pendant speakers. This approach provided uniform sound coverage and high intelligibility, while the refined industrial design of the enclosures allowed the system to blend discreetly into the ceiling void.

Located on Warsaw’s prestigious Nowy Świat (Royal Route), a Pasibus venue brings the brand’s signature street-food energy into a historic setting. The interior combines the burger chain’s raw, industrial aesthetic with the constraints of a high-traffic urban space.

In this case, 9 ACP-55T pendant speakers were used to integrate harmoniously with the ceiling infrastructure, delivering even coverage across the dining areas without requiring invasive wall mounting. To give the background music the depth and punch needed for Pasibus’ young demographic, the system is reinforced by a pair of Martin Audio SX110B slimline subwoofers, discreetly integrated into the interior joinery.

Finally, L’Osteria in Mysiadło is defined by its lively atmosphere, industrial-chic design and high open ceilings. This architectural volume required a solution capable of delivering clear and consistent background music across a large area without adding visual clutter. Phono Media once again selected the pendant format, installing 17 ACP-55T units to bring the sound source closer to the tables, improving intelligibility while making effective use of the ceiling void.

To ensure the audio experience extends seamlessly into the outdoor garden area, 5 weatherised CDD5BTX-WR loudspeakers were installed, chosen for their Coaxial Differential Dispersion technology, which provides wide and consistent coverage across the patio. The system is completed with two SX110B subwoofers, delivering enhanced low-frequency extension throughout the venue.

For Phono Media, Martin Audio acts as an essential bridge between robust technical capability and indispensable aesthetic form. These projects prove that we do not have to sacrifice functionality for design. The Martin ADORN series gives us the reliability of a professional audio system wrapped in a visual package that architects accept. It effectively turns a technical necessity into a design asset, says Filip Polanowski, Chief Technology Officer of Phono Media.
