Launch Of The Goldmund Media Room Transcends U.S. Home Theatre Market With Radically Innovative Design

Up to 128 Channel Sound with No Need for Costly Room Acoustic Correction Materials

October 9, 2007

Goldmund announced today the debut of a radical new approach to home theatre design, engineering, and construction with the introduction of the "Goldmund Media Room." The Swiss-based company that has set the standard for ultra-luxury in the audiophile community worldwide for more than 30 years is permanently changing the rules of media room design and audio engineering construction with up to 128 channels of seamless surround sound coupled with crystal clear high-definition video. The first offering of its kind, the Goldmund Media Room presents discerning luxury consumers a media room that they say exceeds the quality and performance of the nation’s top commercial movie theaters and director’s screening rooms. By utilizing proprietary audio acoustic technology, the Goldmund Media Room produces a pure audio visual experience without compromising the décor and aesthetics of the room, achieving "perfection in an imperfect world." Developed by a team of world-renowned electro-acoustic engineers, the remarkable and incredibly complex room modeling technology, PROTEUS, was created exclusively for media room and home theater applications. The use of PROTEUS, developed in the company’s core research laboratories in Europe, allows the experts from Goldmund to produce a media room solution that is able to directly correct the room acoustics. Conventionally, the installation of a home theater involves selecting quality speakers and associated equipment and placing them in ideal positions in the room, then modifying room acoustics. With Goldmund’s industry changing approach the acoustics of the room are not a critical key design factor anymore. Using this high tech room modeling software, Goldmund’s team of professionals determine, with the number of speakers necessary, all the signal processing software that, loaded in the central processor, will produce optimal sound. Goldmund Media Room installations begin at $300,000. Cost of décor and furnishings are additional. “The Goldmund Media Room delivers an unprecedented acoustic and visual experience in any room, regardless of size and decoration,” says Michel Reverchon, president of Goldmund. “We are very excited to bring this groundbreaking solution to the U.S. luxury home and yacht market.” Goldmund painstakingly custom-builds all the media room audio and video components including up to 128 speakers, an amplifier for each speaker and a central processing controller. Goldmund is the single-source of all products to insure a seamless, totally integrated experience. By maintaining total control over components and processing, Goldmund can guarantee the quality control of the whole system. Goldmund takes complete control and responsibility for repairs rather than forcing the customer or his installer to call various manufacturers in an attempt to resolve a problem.
