The Cinebase offers an excellent alternative to bulky 5.1 systems. Another advantage: the Cinebase eliminates annoying cable clutter - the device only requires one HDMI cable to the TV and is ready to use immediately. A 5.1 system with six separate speakers at the price of the Cinebase may only provide optimal sound quality at one or a few points, where all sound events are precisely locatable, especially if not set up ideally or in unfavorable room acoustics.

The technology, originating from the professional sector, skillfully controls the six drivers in the Cinebase using patented software, creating an enveloping surround sound with outstanding spatial depth. This technology has proven itself in venues such as the renowned CityFox in New York and even at open-air events. Unlike other technologies, Sonic Emotion Absolute 3D is not about flashy effects but allows for authentic playback throughout the room, at any listening position.

With an HDMI input, an HDMI output, as well as digital and analog inputs, you can easily connect TV receivers, DVD or Blu-ray players, and MP3 players/iPods. The sophisticated aptX codec ensures high-quality, flawless audio transmission that rivals wired connections. NFC (Near Field Communication) allows the Cinebase to easily connect with a smartphone. Simply hold the smartphone near the Cinebase, connect, and you're done. No complicated pairing or password entry is required.

The Cinebase decodes DTS and Dolby Digital and includes decoders for Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Pro Logic II. Thus, it is equipped for any incoming audio format in stereo or surround. No additional remote control is necessary. The Cinebase can be operated either with the included remote control or with your own TV remote.
