Martin Audio’s Torus keeps Vietnam’s POC POC Garden fresh
POC POC Garden in Ho Chi Minh City climbs higher in DJ Magazine’s Top 100 clubs, powered by Martin Audio’s Torus system
Worldwide, dance venues prize a spot in DJ Magazine’s Top 100 clubs list. Vietnam’s POC POC Garden entered DJ Magazine’s Top 100 in 2023 after installing Martin Audio gear and has climbed even higher in 2025.
The club has an impressive outdoor space and premium stage. This space allows for the combination of unique artistic performance with high-octane dance music.
Duc Pro Audio, an audio solutions provider based in Ho Chi Minh, selected Martin Audio for the club’s revamp. Martin Audio has already proven its effectiveness in nightclubs – for example, in its installation at Swingers in Las Vegas.
Pham Duy Quang, product manager at Duc Pro Audio, was confident in the Torus constant curvature system. “As the height of the glass interior is approximately 8.5 metres and the capacity around 1100, we knew Torus would deliver extremely high-quality audio,” he declared. “The speakers produce a clean sound and combine extremely well with the powerful SXCF118 subwoofer.”
The installation of Martin Audio technology has helped keep POC POC Garden in front of other clubs
From art performances to rap battles, POC POC Garden hosts a wide range of production teams and events. Therefore, the system also needed to meet the demands of diverse and high-profile shows.
“The club also welcomes dance crews from Cuba, and has a giant water tank with daily mermaid performances and many other spectacular visuals that make use of a huge ceiling hoist system,” continued Quang. “Torus handles it all effortlessly and delivers an impressive performance.”
Duc Pro Audio arranged the main PA in four flown columns, hanging above the stage and DJ booth. These include T1215 speakers and SXCF118 subwoofers, with additional delayed columns over the audience and front-fill speakers along the stage edge.
This setup has helped POC POC Garden to garner more attention worldwide.
