Pub Audio Systems

From intimate craft beer bars to large hotel pubs, the right audio system sets the atmosphere and keeps patrons comfortable. Active Audio & TV installs pub audio systems engineered for Gold Coast venues — with clear sound, simple controls and the durability to run every day.

Pub audio zones

A typical Gold Coast pub needs at least three zones: the main bar, dining area and outdoor beer garden. Each zone has different volume requirements and may need different audio sources. Craig designs and programs zone controllers that staff can operate easily.

TV and sports audio

When the big game is on, patrons want to hear the commentary. Craig integrates TV audio into the pub sound system with zone override so sports audio plays in the bar while background music continues in dining areas.

Our Pub Audio Systems process

Every pub audio systems project follows the same professional process: an initial phone consultation with Craig, an on-site assessment for larger jobs, a clear written quote with no hidden extras, expert installation using quality hardware, and full testing before handover. You deal directly with the business owner from start to finish — not a franchise call centre or rotating subcontractor. For body corporate and commercial projects, Craig provides written scope documents, system diagrams and compliance paperwork for committee and council submissions.

Who we work with on the Gold Coast and Central Coast

Craig works with homeowners, landlords, body corporates, strata managers, builders, developers, hotel and resort managers, club committees, school administrators and commercial tenants. Whether you need a single pub audio systems job or a building-wide rollout across dozens of units, Active Audio & TV has the experience and equipment to deliver. We are the preferred AV contractor for building managers who need a reliable, long-term partner rather than a one-off installer.

Equipment and brands we install

We install and support leading brands including Hills Antennas, Samsung, LG, Sony, Yamaha, Denon, Bose, Sonos, Foxtel, Starlink and Fetch. Craig selects equipment based on your specific requirements and environment — not whatever is cheapest from the warehouse. All hardware is installed to manufacturer specifications with Australian-standard RG6 quad-shield coaxial cabling, F-type compression connectors, stainless roof mounts and weatherproof junction boxes.

Residential pub audio systems on the Gold Coast and Central Coast

For homeowners, Craig provides neat, tidy installations that respect your property. Cables are clipped and routed discreetly, roof penetrations are sealed, and all work areas are left clean. We tune and test every TV before leaving, and explain operation so you are confident using your new system from day one.

Commercial pub audio systems on the Gold Coast and Central Coast

Commercial clients receive engineered solutions designed for reliability and easy operation. Craig produces equipment schedules, zone diagrams and as-built documentation. Staff training is included on handover so your team can operate the system without calling for support every week. Maintenance agreements are available for ongoing peace of mind.

Servicing the Gold Coast and Central Coast

From our Gold Coast office in Ashmore and Central Coast office at St Huberts Island, Craig services the entire Gold Coast and Central Coast. We attend residential homes, apartment buildings, resorts, clubs, pubs, schools, sports grounds and commercial premises. Same-week attendance is standard for most suburbs. Call 0431 201 181 to confirm availability in your area.

Quotes for pub audio systems

Craig provides competitive, fixed quotes with no hidden extras. For straightforward residential jobs, your quote is confirmed during the initial phone call. For commercial and multi-dwelling projects, a free on-site inspection ensures the system is specified correctly and quoted accurately. We do not charge call-out fees for quotes within our standard service area.

Why Active Audio & TV

With over 40 years specialising exclusively in audio visual, TV distribution and commercial audio, Craig brings expertise that general electricians and handymen cannot match. We are licensed, insured, and every job is backed by a workmanship guarantee. Our focus on MATV, apartment TV systems and commercial audio sets us apart from basic antenna installers who lack the engineering skills for complex distribution and commercial sound projects.
