Nightlife Meets Precision Sound: The Leela Club, Goa
Ansata and d&b audiotechnik deliver a world-class audio experience for Goa’s premier nightlife destination
Setting the Scene
The Leela Club, Goa brings international-standard nightlife and entertainment to India, inspired by legendary clubbing scenes such as its sister venue in Pattaya, Thailand. Known for electrifying DJ nights, EDM parties, luxury VIP tables, premium entertainment, and packed dance floors, the club is a destination where premium ambience and high-energy music converge.
To ensure that sound matched the visual vibe and entertainment calendar, The Leela Club partnered with Ansata, the exclusive distributor of d&b audiotechnik in India, to design and deliver a professional audio solution capable of supporting touring DJs, live performances, high dynamic electronic music, and immersive nightlife programming suited to the luxury night-club.
The Challenge
The Leela Club’s audio requirements were ambitious:
- Deliver powerful, high-fidelity sound suitable for global-standard DJ sets and live performances
- Ensure consistent coverage across the main dance floor, VIP lounges, and seating zones without dead spots
- Provide tight, controlled low-frequency support that drives the floor but remains articulate
- Maintain clarity and balance for both music and announcements across varied event formats
- Support touring engineer workflows and club-style dynamics simultaneously
The system needed to be energetic, yet retain control and definition at high playback levels all in a space where every seat and table should enjoy the same quality of sound.
The Solution
Ansata designed a large-format d&b audiotechnik system built to meet the club’s diverse program requirements, ensuring both impact and nuance.
High-Performance Main System:
- KSLi 8 × 8 loudspeakers for wide, high-output main coverage
- KSLi 12 × 4 loudspeakers augmenting power and pattern control
- KSLiSub × 4 for tight and punchy low end
- SL-G Sub × 6 for deep, controlled sub-bass extension
These elements form a scalable, high-headroom backbone capable of delivering electronic music energy and live performance depth without distortion.
Supplementary Coverage & Monitoring:
- Vi10P × 4
- Vi-G Sub × 2
- M4 Monitors × 2 for accurate on-stage monitoring for performers and DJs
Amplification & Control:
- d&b audiotechnik 40D
- d&b audiotechnik D90
Live Mixing & I/O:
- Waves eMotion LV1 Classic console for live system mixing

This configuration supports high SPL performance while preserving tonal balance, definition, and translation across DJs, live acts, and club playlists.
The Result
The upgraded audio system at The Leela Club delivers immersive, high-impact sound that aligns with its international nightlife fame in its sister branch in Thailand. Guests experience crisp highs, powerful lows, and balanced midrange that enhances musical nuance even at high volumes.
DJs and performance engineers benefit from a reliable, high-headroom system that responds predictably night after night.
Every zone from the dance floor to seating & VIP lounges enjoy consistent coverage without hotspots or muddiness, elevating the club experience to global standards. The club’s reputation as a nightlife destination is now reinforced by sound as premium as its ambience, ensuring visitors return for the music as much as the vibe.
