“Home audio technology has advanced at a rapid rate over the past few years, with home theater systems offering more channels, enhanced channel separation, and improved frequency response and reproduction,” said Ågren. “However, despite these advancements, various factors that exist beyond the confines of the home theater system – such as the room’s size, shape, and contents – continue to negatively impact the overall listening experience. Our CEDIA 2017 presentation will discuss how manufacturers and integrators alike can leverage room correction technology to control these formerly uncontrollable factors, and thus produce the audio experience intended by the manufacturer.”
Since introducing Dirac Live, Dirac Research has forged partnerships with twelve leading residential audio brands that are exhibiting at CEDIA 2017 – including Arcam, Audio Control, Datasat, Emotiva, StormAudio, Theta Digital, Wisdom Audio, and more. According to Ågren, rather than conduct individual presentations and demos with each brand along with prospective partners, the presentation will gather the brightest minds and biggest names in home audio for a collaborative discussion on how the CEDIA market can benefit from equipping their product and installations with room correction technology.
“With our latest innovations offering unrivaled performance in any acoustical environment, it’s crucial to the future of audio that the industry fully understands the technical advances and end-user benefits of the latest technologies,” concluded Ågren. “We’re on the cutting edge of further refining the home theater experience, and we look forward to sharing our latest innovations and product roadmap with the industry community at CEDIA 2017.”
Those interested in attending the presentation can register for Dirac: Room Correction That Works, with course number MPTDI001 through the CEDIA 2017 registration system. The course is worth .75 CEU and is free to all CEDIA members and non-members. For more information on Dirac Research, visit www.dirac.com.
