Cannon C6s on the facade of the new venue in Rockford, Illinois, greet every guest with music as they walk into the casino, then inside the venue Contour CT28s and SUB310s are deployed
1 SOUND loudspeakers have been incorporated on both the outside and inside of the building for the new Hard Rock Casino Rockford, in the US state of Illinois, which celebrated its grand opening on August 29.
It marks the second Hard Rock project to incorporate 1 SOUND loudspeakers, following the Hard Rock Times Square Hotel performance venue in New York City.

On the facade of the new Hard Rock Casino Rockford are 1 SOUND’s Cannon C6s, which greet every guest with music as they walk into the casino.
The Cannon C6s are colour-matched to the panels and were installed using custom-coloured Cannon C-Clamp accessories. The Cannon C6s are only 8.5in big and have a bandwidth down to 60Hz and a max SPL of 114 dB. The 6.5-inch driver is treated with a ferrofluid, allowing the speakers to produce louder sound pressure levels than would normally be the case with their compact size.
Tom Knauss executive principal consultant of audio design consultancy NV5 said the deployment “met the ‘holy grail’ goal and then some”. He added: “After years of planning and about two years of construction, the 175,000 sqft Hard Rock Casino in Rockford is now open, and the first thing you will hear walking to the front entrance is ‘the classics’ playing from 1 SOUND Cannon C6s at the front of the building.”
Inside the casino, at Council Oak Steak & Seafood restaurant, two Contour CT28s and SUB310s are deployed for the intimate lounge’s entertainment stage. The Contour CT28s were horizontally mounted with the adjustable CT28 Yoke accessory. They are colour-matched to the restaurant’s signature blue colour.
The Contours are constant directivity point sources. They have a 3-way crossover, which enables the loudspeaker’s sonic clarity and bandwidth down to 70Hz.
