6.3  PSUT1 + PSUTS configurations

  

6.4  Surround configurations

The configuration 

Surround 1

 is designed for sound reinforcing outdoor 

cinemas with a portable system, without the need of hanging speakers 

and with the ability to enjoy the surround sound effect and the L.F.E. (

Low 

Frequency Effect

) channel present on video supports. 

We offer a system that provides a sound quality and coverage definitely better 

than standard audio solutions on the market for this type of applications, 

whilst ensuring the comfort of a temporary installation thanks to active stack 

systems: no floor stand holder, no height adjustments, no heavy weights to 

carry around and no power cables throughout the front. 

In addition, the speaker in the middle is perfectly arranged to deliver a full and 

rich voice to the whole audience, as explained under paragraph 3.2.

The configuration 

Surround 2

 is designed for hi-end home theaters, i.e. real 

halls hosting up to 20-25 people where high and accurate sound pressure 

levels are required. As compared to 

Surround 1

, the middle speaker should 

be a little lower in this configuration, as it must fit right above or below the 

screen, if the latter is assumed to lack acoustical transparency. 

The solution we propose is a cluster of PSUT1 micro-speakers radially arranged, 

so as to create the right opening of the sound beam and cover the entire 

audience. Two cluster of 4 PSUT1 elements are proposed as surround speakers.
