Torus And BlacklineX Power Audio At Pune's New Superclub
Xclusive Club & Kitchen has set out to redefine Pune nightlife with an upmarket crowd, striking interiors and a busy calendar of DJs spinning high-energy commercial, Bollywood and EDM sets.
The venue launched in mid-November with a headline appearance by Indian rapper/DJ Raftaar and has been bustling since, underpinned by a Martin Audio sound system built around TORUS and BlacklineX.
"At Xclusive Club & Kitchen the audio experience was a critical part of the overall design," said Shivam Vitekar, the venue's AV consultant.
The main dancefloor deploys Martin Audio TORUS T1215 and TORUS T1230 constant curvature loudspeakers to deliver powerful, accurate coverage across the front and midfield with consistent tonal balance. Low-end duties are handled by Blackline X218 and Blackline X118B Hybrid® Horn/Reflex subwoofers, supplying the weight and physicality demanded by a high-intensity club.
Premium seating areas receive on-wall reinforcement via Martin Audio MA BLX 15 and V12 loudspeakers, maintaining even sound pressure without overpowering conversations.
Power and processing come from Linea Research 44M 10 DSP four-channel amplification. System control, alignment and final tuning use Linea Research DSP alongside third-party devices, creating an integrated design optimised for extended high-SPL operation while remaining articulate and controlled.
Reviewing performance, Mr. Vitekar said: "The system delivers strong output with excellent control, ensuring the energy remains consistent across the venue. From live performances to DJ-led nights, the sound remains clean and immersive. It has elevated the club’s identity and guest experience."
“It’s a powerful and refined sound experience that we are proud to have engineered.” said Dharam Koll, VMT Enterprise.
Added Dharam Koll, Pre-Design & Sales Engineer, VMT Enterprise: "The sound system delivers exceptional precision and balance, even during high energy sets. The TORUS arrays, paired with Blackline subwoofers, create tight, controlled low-end punch and crystal-clear highs. It's a powerful and refined sound experience that we are proud to have engineered."
"Working on the Xclusive Pune project was a smooth and collaborative experience with the system integrator and venue team," confirmed Kekul Sheth, Head of Sales Distribution, VMT Enterprise. He added: "Every stage, from planning to commissioning, aligned perfectly with the shared vision. We are proud to be part of an installation that raises the standard of nightclub audio."
Summing up, VMT director, Jeff Mandot, said: "Xclusive Pune represents a significant step forward for professional club sound in India. This installation showcases what is possible when premium technology and expert engineering come together. It sets a strong benchmark for the future of high-performance nightlife venues."
