Immersive cinema sound formats give filmmakers unprecedented creative freedom in the production of the soundtrack. But for the exhibitor, it also places greater demands on the entire sound system—especially the surround loudspeakers and amplifiers. Sound designers want to localize sound with three-dimensional freedom at any volume level, so each individual loudspeaker needs to be capable of producing clean, undistorted sound at levels comparable to a screen channel.
Q-SYS Immersive Sound Features
High Power Surrounds
Q-SYS surround loudspeakers designed for immersive applications produce greater output than conventional surround loudspeakers and they include special safety features like plywood construction and multiple mounting options.
Q-SYS Control & Monitoring
The Q-SYS platform allows direct control and monitoring of each amplifier channel and loudspeaker.
Subwoofers Designed for Safe Installation
For Immersive low-frequency extension, we offer subwoofers that are designed for safe and easy suspension using eight built-in M10 fly points. Heavily braced, tour grade 15 mm plywood construction provides great strength while keeping weight to a minimum.
Multi-channel power amplifiers
Q-SYS 4- and 8-channel amplifiers provide a cost-effective and space-saving solution for surround loudspeaker amplification.
