Mons Faraya is a Lebanese ski resort— a buzzing hotspot that effortlessly combines a chic restaurant vibe with an electrifying music bar scene. Set on approximately 1400m2, it strikes the right balance, accommodating a lively crowd without losing its intimate charm. With indoor, outdoor and pool area, it’s a location where haute cuisine meets high-energy beats, drawing in locals and tourists alike. The venue hosts the best local and international DJs as well as popular local bands such as Kimotion, Moblack and Aryme.
The venue itself, which has been masterminded by Youssef Hadid, Nazir Bassit and Chris Bosnoyan, recently took ownership of a Martin Audio PA after Charbel Fahed of Technosound, the Martin Audio partner, met with Bassit and Hadid. “They were seeking a top-tier sound system, so I recommended Martin Audio for its exceptional quality and performance,” he said. ”However, it wasn’t their first time working with Technosound, since my father, Pierre Fahed, had previously worked on several projects with Mr. Hadid.
“The owners were already well-versed with the stellar reputation of Martin Audio,” he continued, knowing that we have previously worked on other projects for one of the owners using Martin Audio BlacklineX. They knew that only a brand of this caliber could deliver the immersive audio experience they envisioned.”
Technosound’s Pierre Fahed and Tony el Bitar meticulously designed the system, ensuring every corner of Mons resonates with crystal-clear sound and pulsating energy. CDD15, CDD12 and Blackline X218 subs are strategically placed In the outdoor and pool areas. The remainder of the CDD12 speakers and Blackline X118 subs are stationed in the indoor areas of Mons.
Elsewhere, Martin Audio ADORN speakers are strategically placed in the rest room area to ensure guests remain immersed in the venue’s vibrant atmosphere and never miss a beat. While there is a traditional stage, the system effortlessly transitions from ambient background music during the day to high-octane beats at night.
The music profile during the day is lounge music and a dynamic blend of mainly Afro House and chart-topping hits at night, as well as during their ‘après-ski’ events, creating a vibrant atmosphere.
The owners have expressed immense satisfaction with the system. Nazir commented, “Working with Technosound has been a fantastic experience. Their Martin Audio solution has helped transform Mons Faraya into a top-tier venue with exceptional sound quality.
“The system perfectly complements our dynamic atmosphere, and our guests have consistently praised the audio experience. We highly recommend Technosound for their professionalism, expertise and commitment to excellence.”
