TORUS Helps Vietnam's POC POC Garden Remain In DJ Mag's Top 100 Clubs

For dance venues the world over, one of the most coveted accolades is recognition in the prestigious DJ Magazine Top 100 clubs.

Located in the Vietnam capital of Ho Chi Minh City, POC POC Garden first featured in the list the year after Duc Pro Audio fitted a premium Martin Audio sound system, back in March 2023. Now in 2025 it has risen even higher in the rankings of the world's most important nightclubs.

Located in the heart of District 3, and with an impressive outdoor space and premium stage, the club combines unique artistic performance with high octane dance music.
Faced with a fierce competitive tender against another leading speaker brand, Duc Pro Audio extended its long association with Martin Audio by drawing on the brand’s matchless nightclub pedigree. It has enjoyed consistent presence in superclubs ranging from Ministry of Sound to fabric—the latter recently upgraded with next generation Martin Audio sound.

Duc Pro Audio product manager, Pham Duy Quang, never had any doubts that a TORUS constant curvature system would provide the definitive solution for this venue, and its owner, Mr. Chien.

"As the height of the glass interior is approximately 8.5 metres and the capacity around 1,100, we knew TORUS would deliver extremely high-quality audio," he declared. "The speakers produce a clean sound and combine extremely well with the powerful SXCF118 subwoofer."

The sound also had to satisfy its many incoming high profile production teams from around the world, since POC POC hosts a wide range of events—from art performances to some of the most highly renowned EDM names in the region, as well as competitive rap events. "The club also welcomes dance crews from Cuba, and has a giant water tank with daily mermaid performances and many other spectacular visuals that make use of a huge ceiling hoist system. TORUS handles it all effortlessly, and delivers an impressive performance," said Mr. Quang.

Inspired audio design was critical to this success. Duc Pro Audio have arranged the main PA in four flown columns, hanging above the stage and DJ booth—single L/R columns flanking a centre hang of two. This centre array is made up of three T1215 and a pair of SXCF118 subs, while the outhangs comprise three T1215. A further four columns are suspended in front of the stage over the audience, and delayed—each comprising a pair of T1215 and a single T1230.

For front fill, eight further T1215 are placed along the front of the stage facing the audience, while the all-important sub frequency rumble is extended via eight Martin Audio SXH218, set under the stage front.

Mr. Chien is a well-known investor in Ho Chi Minh City's nightlife, and he expressed unqualified satisfaction with TORUS. "As such, he will continue to trust Duc Pro Audio and Martin Audio in future projects," stated Pham Duy Quang confidently.
Added Martin Audio marketing director, James King, "We are proud once again to have key representation in DJ Magazine’s list of globally famous dance venues. We have a long and distinguished heritage in equipping venues and global EDM events alike with our premium sound systems. We are grateful to our partners in Vietnam for their continued faith in our world-beating solutions."
