    Restaurant in Brighton - cool huh?



    I was out having coffee in a little restaurant in Brighton, United Kingdom the other week, and to my surprise, I noticed they had 3 pairs of nautilus surround sound speakers on the walls! Cool huh?

      Cool - did you speak to the owner? The photo is not bad considering it is from a phone!

        Nah I didn't... only popped in for a quick coffee. They did have a nice baby grand in the corner, so I guess they have a live pianist there on weekends..

            jack, the owners of restaurant probably got a good deal from the B&W factory near worthing, not far from brighton. I first heard 800D's at phase 3 hifi in worthing!!!

                Correct - I've lived in Brighton for almost 20 years, and know Worthing very well. Never visited Phase 3 or B&W though!

                I couldn't see an amp anywhere.. they were playing mediocre jazz.. sounded very poor to me, probably because of the background noise and weird positioning!

                    That's so cool. I actually have the same idea for a little restaurant I plan on opening in a few years. :T

                      They have the same speakers at Hotel Du Vin in Brighton. Actually they have the Signature version.
