THE VELVET ROOM: HAPPILY GOING DOWN THE TUBE

Los Angeles , CA- Fresh from its 2006 World Club Award win for Best LED Product, the COLORtube™ 2.0 continues to grab headlines and hearts. Among its newest conquest: Seasoned designer David Quiñones of Empire Wholesale Inc. who transformed a plain wall into an LED showpiece at the trendy Velvet Room of the Premier Korean Town Restaurant Nightclub. Here’s what he had to say after completing the spectacular 15 x 20 wall surface using 40 COLORtubes™ 2.0: “CHAUVET COLORtubes were a shocker. I did not expect the results we got after it was installed. I am opinonated and sometimes a little cynical when it comes to products that boast to give a lot for little money. I’ve worked with other much more expensive LED fixtures and was not as impressed as I am with CHAUVET COLORtubes. Their simplicity and spectacular results are unsurpassed at any price. What I thought might be nice but not the end of all ends is the hit of the Club. Everyone that has seen it says it is spectacular to mesmerizing. Las Vegas look out!” Empire Wholesale, Inc. 1651 Tarleton Street, Los Angeles, CA 90021 www.empirepro.com
