As one of California’s absolute “must-see” destinations, the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library offers visitors a sweeping look at history. The crown jewel of the complex is the Air Force One Pavilion, which proudly houses both the iconic Air Force One and Marine One aircraft.

The new Italo-Corsican bar-restaurant in the heart of Les Halles de Laval set installers EMS Le Mans a deceptively simple brief, asking them to fill eight distinct zones with sound as polished as the interiors and leave behind a sound system that staff can run without a manual in hand. Supplied by Audio-Technica, an Optimal Audio ecosystem fit the bill, giving even coverage everywhere, and intuitive control on the browser-based WebApp. Each of the restaurant’s eight…
