Macanudo
The room
In Cali, Macanudo brings the Japanese jazz-kissa idea into a room of records, good food and signature cocktails. Subdued lighting and lounge seating give vinyl a place at the centre of the evening, with Klipschorn loudspeakers making the sound system as much a part of the room as the bar.
The listening space has been acoustically treated, and a second Klipsch system serves the upper level. It is a place to share a record and a conversation, with the equipment woven into the experience.

Sound system
Browse this venue’s gear ↗Klipschorn AK6 loudspeakers form the main system, with a pair of Topping B200 monoblocks driving their midrange and treble. Bag End IPD12 subwoofers handle low-frequency support; LEA Connect 702 and Connect 354 amplifiers also form part of the installation. Klipsch Heresy IV speakers serve the upper level.
Technics SL-1200MK7 turntables with Ortofon Concorde Club MKII cartridges feed a Swiss-built Varia Instruments RDM40 mixer. The design prioritises the dynamics of vinyl and stable stereo placement. Mogami Neglex W2534 signal cable, W3082 speaker cable and Neutrik connectors complete the wiring. Acoustic treatment is integrated into the listening space. The monitor designation is retained as “KL172 SMA RAW”; its precise revision remains unconfirmed.
