INSTALLATION OF THE MONTH - July 2010

Cinematic Elegance
Congratulations to Howard Lin at Luo Wei International in Taiwan for this fantastic installation, our domestic Installation Of The Month for July
Installing a seriously high quality home cinema into a lounge is always a design challenge, all the more so when the client has such a serene and beautiful room. Traditional floorstanding designs are often intrusive and create serious problems regarding the centre channel. In Ceiling designs position the sound in the wrong place to give a convincing audio presentation for the front left, centre and right channels. In wall designs create an unsightly trio of grills in the wall.
The solution for stylish rooms is Artcoustic. The Artcoustic range offers a wide range of very high quality loudspeakers to ensure the performance of the home cinema is of reference quality. This installation utilises the DF65-50 model for left, centre and right, ensuring a perfect timbre match between these vital channels. The printed designs on the speaker screens enable the system to integrate aesthetically into the room design perfectly.
Luo Wei International have installed a stunning system that is powerful and genuinely cinematic when in use, and beautiful when not.

Congratulations to Toch Daliwal at Marcus Bevan for this high quality installation in a London boardroom, our commercial Installation Of The Month for July.
Boardrooms like this can often be a sedate affair, but in this case a full Artcoustic 5.1 system has been installed to deliver the very best presentations. DF75-55s are installed with a DF Multi as part of a stunning system. The flexible design options and shallow depth mean that the high quality finish sets the right tone for the most demanding clients visiting this boardroom
