Hardware

Good sound equipment makes the difference. We supply and install it too — from a single player to a complete installation.
Restaurant, gym, shop or office: the right audio equipment creates atmosphere, calm and experience. We supply complete solutions built to measure, matched to the acoustics and the look of your space. From discreet ceiling and wall speakers to powerful amplifiers and simple controls.

BackSound Stream Player

Our own music computer: a compact Windows mini PC with the player already on it. Connect it to your amplifier, plug in the network cable and you are done — nothing to install. The music is stored on it as well, so it keeps playing when the internet drops.
✓
Player already installed, running within 24 hours
✓
After five years the music computer is yours
✓
Keeps playing when the internet drops — 400 tracks stored locally

We update it and help you remotely

Several rooms from one player

A player does not have to serve just one room. With a multichannel sound card it gets eight separate outputs: four rooms in stereo, alongside the room running on the PC's own audio output. Five in all, each with its own music, its own volume and its own schedule. One USB cable to the player, no separate power supply, and each pair of outputs goes to its own amplifier. That is why you pay one subscription for the whole venue instead of per room.
✓
Eight outputs — four rooms in stereo, plus the PC itself
✓
Each room its own music, volume and schedule
✓
One USB cable, no extra power supply

Dante — audio over your network

In a large building you no longer pull separate audio cables. With Dante the sound travels over the same network as everything else: one network cable per point, every zone controlled separately, and expanding means adding a port instead of opening a wall. We supply it and set it up.

Sonos

As an authorised Sonos dealer we fit Sonos seamlessly into a commercial setting. You keep the ease of Sonos and get the reliability a business needs. Ideal for smaller installations or spaces where simplicity and flexibility come first. We take care of a stable network connection and a faultless integration.

Wireless speakers and Bluetooth

Not every space can be cabled — a terrace, a temporary setup, a listed building. There we place wireless speakers that simply join the same system, over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. No separate installation you have to operate on its own.

No cable pulling
✓
Runs inside the same system

Also for terraces and temporary setups

Audac

For the fixed installation we work with professional Audac equipment: ceiling and wall speakers, amplifiers with DSP and matrix systems that grow with your business. Chosen on how it sounds and how long it lasts — not on wattage.

Why professional audio?

Three things that make the difference, and that a list of wattages will never tell you.

Quality over power

Do not be fooled by high wattage. The number of watts says little about sound quality. We work with components that last for years and sound clear, full and balanced. And more speakers does not mean more volume — it means even coverage, so the music stays audible everywhere without guests or staff having to raise their voice.

Amplifiers with DSP

Already have speakers on the walls? Then you do not have to replace everything. With modern amplifiers using DSP (Digital Signal Processing) we get the most out of your existing installation: clear highs and a warm, full low end, without needless replacement.

Controls per room

We divide your building into zones, so the bar, the restaurant, reception and the office each have their own volume. You control it from the app or a wall panel — no mixing desk, no complicated settings. One press and the atmosphere is right.

Maintenance and support

A professional installation deserves professional service. Our engineers are ready for maintenance, changes or expansion, so the sound stays right. One phone call or WhatsApp message is enough — we take care of the rest.

Two amounts are fixed

Installation and a touchscreen cost the same at every venue. Prices excluding VAT.
Installation on site
flat rate for a normal installation
€ 169
Wall-mounted touchscreen
so staff can operate it themselves
€ 350
Speakers, amplifiers and cabling are not fixed — they differ per venue. The size of the room, how many zones you want, what is already installed and how it sounds together set the price. We quote for that after we have seen the place. That visit costs nothing.

Frequently asked questions about hardware

Does BackSound Stream supply speakers and amplifiers as well?

Yes. We are an authorised Sonos dealer and also supply complete professional audio equipment: ceiling and wall speakers, amplifiers and controls per zone.

Is the hardware part of the subscription, or do I buy it separately?

That depends on what you choose. You can run the player on your own PC, or take the equipment from us. Ask for a quote and we will work it out for your situation.

Can I keep using my existing speakers?

Usually yes. With a modern amplifier using DSP we get the most out of what is already there, so you do not have to replace everything. We are happy to look at your situation first.

Do you install it too?

Yes. We come to you, look at the space, send a quote and install everything ourselves. Since 2003, across the Netherlands.

Is there support if something goes wrong?

Yes, 24/7 — on the hardware as well. One phone call or WhatsApp message and we pick it up, often remotely there and then.
