Rodeo Cold in Dallas Pushes Custom Sound to a Whole New Level

Rodeo Cold, a new bar in Dallas, TX, is already turning heads—not just for its whiskey selection and warm wood decor, but for a sound system that’s just as custom as its interiors. Designed and installed by1 SOUND partner Bespoke Technology, the venue’s audio setup is a standout example of collaboration, adaptability, and real creative trust.

Bespoke specified an audio design utilizing 1 SOUND’s Cannons. During the project, one of the venue’s artists—who crafted the striking wood-burned floor design—shared a wish: that the speakers could reflect the same hand-burned look. With just a week before the system was scheduled to ship, Bespoke brought that vision to 1 SOUND. Confident in their close partnership, Bespoke knew they could make it happen—and fast. 1 SOUND’s Custom Shop team worked directly with the artist to prototype and match the speaker finish to the wood design. Within just two days, the custom loudspeakers were produced and shipped—true one-of-a-kind builds that feel like they’ve always belonged in the space.

Beyond the look, the system delivers evenly distributed music playback across every zone. Outside the entrance, Cannon C4i loudspeakers welcome guests with crisp audio. Inside, C5s disappear into the wood-burned interior, while Cannon C6s and C8is provide smooth, even coverage throughout the back yard bar and dining areas. Around the central outdoor bar, WSUB45s are mounted cleanly to the overhang using the C-Clamp kit, and Cannons on Swivel Mounts, which offer all the aiming needed for the Cannons while being essentially invisible hardware..

Since the install, Rodeo Cold has already begun exploring a second phase: building out a stage and expanding into live music. We’ll be watching—and listening— closely.
