HARMAN’s Crown DCi Fits Out German Cinema
German city Mönchengladbach's newly completed movie theater Haus Zoar is the country’s first cinema to feature a Dolby Atmos™ Connect interface with HARMAN’s Crown DCi Series network amplifiers.
The cinema has also deployed JBL ScreenArray loudspeakers in the new installation.
The Haus Zoar system employs three JBL ScreenArray 3732T loudspeakers for the main left, center and right channels. Two JBL 4642A subwoofers are located in the front of the theater and two 3635 18-inch subs are installed at the back of the theater.
50 JBL 8350 surround loudspeakers are placed at the sides of the theater and mounted from the left and right of the ceiling and aimed diagonally downward.
The loudspeakers are driven by a total of 10 Crown DriveCore DCi Network Series power amplifiers, including DCi 8|300N, DCi 4|600N and DCi 2|600N. The digital audio signal from the Dolby CP850 Atmos Cinema Processor is fed directly into the Crown amplifiers’ digital input via HARMAN’s BLU link networked audio connectivity.
The Crown DCi Series amplifiers include preset tunings that are optimised for various models and types of JBL loudspeakers, to further optimise the performance of the Haus Zoar system.
Carsten Peter, Product Manager for Audio Pro Heilbronn, HARMAN’s German distributor who handled the installation, stated: "Haus Zoar is truly a showcase installation that demonstrates the full potential of Dolby Atmos surround sound."
"The Dolby CP850 Atmos Cinema processor, the new Crown DCi amplifiers, the large-scale JBL loudspeaker system and the superb acoustics of Haus Zoar all combine to create a remarkable and totally immersive sonic environment in what is surely one of the world’s most extraordinary movie theaters," added Peter.
