Sing-Along Success: TVC Powers Karaoke and AV at King Street Tap

TVC Technology Solutions Completes a Cutting-Edge AV Installation for Amber Taverns’ King Street Social Tap.

Huddersfield 10 June 2025: Bolton-based TVC Technology Solutions has announced the successful completion of a sophisticated audio-visual installation at King Street Social Tap, a new flagship hospitality venue by Amber Taverns in Huddersfield. This latest project adds to TVC’s growing portfolio in the sector, reinforcing the brand’s position as a premier AV integrator of choice for the hospitality industry.

“We know what it takes to make a good hospitality venue great: Impressive sound, visually dynamic video and engaging entertainment options like karaoke that increase customer dwell time, average spend, and repeat custom.” Says Chris Whitlock, Technical Director at TVC Technology Solutions.

“All tied together through the seamless interface that is easy for employees to use.”

Building upon previous successful collaborations with Amber Taverns, including the popular Iron Ram in Derby, TVC was chosen to design, supply, and install an advanced AV infrastructure specifically tailored for King Street Social Tap. The venue needed to set itself apart from other bars and venues in busy Huddersfield town centre and attract local residents, visitors and University students alike.

At the heart of King Street Social Tap's AV setup are state-of-the-art Samsung 4K Hospitality Smart TVs, strategically installed throughout various entertainment zones, including the main bar, darts area, elevated seating sections, outdoor courtyard, and an exclusive karaoke room.

With screen sizes ranging from 55 to 75 inches, these robust, commercial-grade displays ensure optimal visibility and outstanding clarity, providing vivid visuals for live sporting events, digital signage, and dynamic entertainment content. Designed specifically for hospitality environments and continuous operation, the screens can deliver stunning visuals in a wide variety of lighting conditions without concerns about overheating or performance degradation over time. The screens were mounted using Peerless flat wall brackets for each TV installation, to keep the sleek, high-quality feel throughout.

One standout attraction of the King Street Social Tap is the custom-designed karaoke room, thoughtfully equipped with the innovative Singa Karaoke System.

Leveraging TVC’s expertise in hospitality karaoke, the system merges a 55-inch Samsung display, professional-grade Audac loudspeakers, and a quad UHF wireless microphone system with the Singa platform. Guests can effortlessly browse and select from an extensive track library via a wall-mounted iPad Pro while they warm up their tonsils waiting for their turn.

To further enhance the Karaoke room's atmosphere, TVC deployed HDMI audio integration, sophisticated wall-mounted lighting controls, and dynamic RGBW LED lighting to deliver a theatrical flair that matches the karaoke experience.

“Amber Taverns management team were very pleased with the finished result at King Street,” adds Chris, “and our successful delivery of this project underscores TVC Technology Solutions' expertise and reliability in designing and executing dedicated AV integrations for the hospitality sector.”
