Ideaali’s Journey to Create the Ultimate Home Theater Experience

September 07 2023

Let us take you to Eastern Finland, where Ideaali assisted a customer in bringing his personal cinema theater dream to life. The client sought a top-tier system capable of surpassing the performance of the local movie theaters, and Ideaali eagerly embraced the task!

The client’s objective was to transform a 25m² room into a high-end setup capable of supporting the latest audio and video formats. Additionally, he desired that this relatively compact space be able to comfortably seat a significant number of people. This presented a considerable challenge for the integration team, as they needed to carefully plan the seating arrangements to ensure the room could cater to both intimate gatherings and larger crowds.

The final setup configuration chosen was a Dolby Atmos 7.3.4 system. To attain outstanding sound quality, Ideaali meticulously treated the room acoustics, even constructing custom bass resonators tailored for the space. In this setup, Ideaali integrated Monitor Audio Cinergy series speakers, powered by a StormAudio ISP MK3 processor and a StormAudio PA amplifier. The choice of StormAudio’s processor and amplifier was intentional, as Ideaali sought to provide the utmost sound quality and harness the extensive features that enabled them to finely calibrate the audio with exceptional precision.

Ideaali expresses that "Dirac ART is a valuable and impressive tool to serve as the foundation for your calibrations. The final outcome was among the finest we've ever encountered. The capability to apply both pre and post equalization and adjust levels through Dirac adds an extra layer of flexibility and value in the hands of a skilled calibrator."

The customer was thoroughly delighted with the final outcome, and the sheer joy evident on their face during the initial demonstration of the completed installation was truly remarkable to witness.
