Leveraging over half a century of industry experience, we built a world class theater acoustically designed by Anthony Grimani, master room designer.  The room is the ultimate expression of dedicated home theater and offers a perfect synergy of architecture and technology, delivering  true suspension of disbelief. The lucky owner of an IHM theater is treated to an audio and video experience so holographic, so transparent that it transports them to another place and time.  Our demo theater has been featured in the following publications, Widescreen Review, CE Pro and Homw Theater magazine.

The beauty of our showroom lies in its unique ability to demonstrate a state-of-the-art Home Theater experience in an acoustically engineered environment that can be duplicated and scaled to perform identically in my clients’ homes. When I give a demo, my clients are relieved to learn that they can achieve virtually the same sound in a dedicated theater inside their own home. What you hear is what you get (WYHIWYG).

This consistency results from using the first production application of curved baffle wall technology in Triad’s CinemaPlus Platinum LCRs, which made their debut in this very room at CEDIA Expo.


These speaker systems create their own acoustic boundary inside an acoustically engineered & treated environment, making it possible to achieve performance that can be duplicated, particularly when fine tuned with high resolution EQ.


Taking advantage of the latest knowledge about bass propagation, twelve 12” CinemaPlus Silver Subwoofers driven by 6000 watts are mounted midwall in groups of three per wall. Standing waves are reduced, providing the most accurate bass over the broadest seating area in the room. Bass is further improved by turning the upper level riser of this two level theater into a giant bass trap
.

The audio performance envelope achieved in this showroom is world class thanks to Tony’s engineering experience designing cinemas, screening rooms, and home theaters plus his work at Lucasfilm creating the very first Home THX standards.

In addition to its sound quality, this room can demonstrate Sound Pressure Levels significantly above Reference Level at all seats with low distortion.



All the speakers and acoustic treatments are attached to the walls & ceiling and hidden by an acoustically transparent 160” wide 4-way masked Stewart projection screen and design-neutral stretched fabric outer walls & ceiling. This approach enables the room to work with virtually any design motif a client or designer can imagine simply by incorporating different fabric colors and room details.
