Lux Cinema, an established movie theatre in Taiwan, has chosen Christie Vive audio cinema sound system in its flagship Hall 1 auditorium. The Vive Audio system was chosen and configured to meet the requirements of Dolby Surround 7.1 sound technology.
The installation at Hall 1 was undertaken by Christie’s partner, Dacoms Technology and comprised of LA5 screen channel speakers, LA4S and LA5S speakers for wall surround effects, S215 subwoofers (for full range frequency response), as well as S218 for Low Frequency Effects (subwoofers) channels.
Emily Hong, president of Dacoms Technology, said: “We’re very pleased to work with Christie to install Taiwan’s first Christie Vive Audio system at Lux Cinema’s Hall 1 auditorium to bring the latest and best cinema audio technologies to Taiwanese audiences. We have always been very impressed with Christie’s constant technological and ground-breaking advancements in digital cinema, and have benefited much working with Christie’s technical team during the Vive Audio installation process.â€
Wayne Chang, chairman of Lux Cinema, said: “We’re proud to be the first cinema in Taiwan to install the innovative Christie Vive Audio and the decision to equip this sound system in Hall 1 marks our commitment to bringing an unprecedented audio-visual experience to our loyal movie supporters in Taiwan.â€
In addition to the Christie Vive audio system, Lux Cinema utilises two Christie CP4230 4K DLP digital cinema projectors for visuals in the auditorium. The CP4230 projectors are set in a stacked configuration to project a brightness of 68,000 lumens.
