Summary

  • A 9.7.4 home-cinema demo in the Magnolia II room will pair ASCENDO speakers and infrasonic bass with Trinnov Cylindrical WaveForming and Christie projection at Audio Advice Live 2026.
  • The 25-by-25-by-8-foot room is designed to show how Cylindrical WaveForming can prevent standing waves in a square space, using four front-wall THE18 subwoofers and two rear units.
  • Trinnov will drive the setup with its AltitudeCI processor, Amplitude16 amplifier and Dante interface, while Christie supplies a Korus 4K1000-KS laser projector on a 135-inch Stewart screen.
  • ASCENDO and Trinnov will also run a separate 2.1-channel lobby display featuring BLACK SWAN loudspeakers and a THE28 SUB SQUARED.
  • The August 7-9 event at Raleigh's Sheraton Hotel builds on last year's award-winning bass demo and gives integrators another look at Trinnov's updated WaveForming approach.
