Meyer Sound’s involvement in the cinema world began back in 1980 when John
Meyer built the original 650 subwoofer for the multichannel sound system touring
with the 70mm theatrical release of Francis Ford Coppola’s “Apocalypse Now.’ The
legendary director later said, “If only every theatre had a system like this they
would have the same remarkable experience I have on my stage.’

As Meyer Sound makes its award-winning professional cinema systems available to
the residential home theatre market, high end home theatre connoisseurs can now
experience the exact exhilarating aural elements heard on the sound stage during
the creative process by the greatest film talents of our time.

Meyer Sound solutions also support rock stars, Broadway producers and top
classical institutions – a veritable Who’s Who of top clients: Telluride Film Festival,
Montreux Jazz, monster tours for the Grateful Dead, Metallica, and the Dave
Matthews Band; classical artists and venues such as Pavarotti and the Walt Disney
Concert Hall; multiple rooms in Jazz at Lincoln Centre; renowned sound designers
for mega Broadway hits like Cats, Wicked and School of Rock; and Cirque du
Soleil’s tour-de-force Las Vegas spectacles.

To bolster its entry into the residential market, Meyer Sound is presenting exclusive
demonstrations of the ultimate private cinema experience concurrently with the
CEDIA Expo in Dallas. In an intimate and luxurious setting, invited guests will
experience cinema technology normally reserved for Hollywood screening rooms,
including professional acoustic design, Hollywood Digital Cinema content, a DCI/ 4K
digital projection system, and Dolby Atmos® immersive sound from 24 Meyer
Sound cinema series self-powered loudspeakers.

Hosted at an off-site location, the demonstrations will be held six times daily to
accommodate strong interest from key dealers, consultants, architects and
members of the trade press. Admission is by invitation only and transportation will
be provided from the Omni Hotel. Demos are by appointment only; contact Andy
Willcox for further information at awillcox@meyersound.com.

The system for the Dallas demonstrations will comprise three Acheron® Designer
screen channel loudspeakers, five X-400 cinema subwoofers, six HMS-5 surround
loudspeakers for wide screen and side surround, two HMS-12 loudspeakers for the
rear surround, and six UP-4XP loudspeakers for Atmos surround. All surround
loudspeakers incorporate Meyer Sound’s exclusive IntelligentDC™ technology, which
delivers the sonic superiority of bi-amplified, self-powered systems with the same
installation ease of traditional systems.

Supporting the Meyer Sound audio experience is a professional Atmos processor
from Dolby Laboratories, with visuals via a DCI server and DCI/ 4K Barco
Prometheus 1 projector from Barco Residential and provided by New Box Solutions
and a Vutec Vision X projection screen. Other partners in the event are Keith Yates
Design, interiors by Fantastic Theatres, Inc., and Cineak Luxury Seating.
