Q: |
You
mentioned 42 speakers in a single component, aren't
you just playing the "number's game"? |
A: |
No.
Digital Sound Projector does not merely utilize
42 speakers, but 42 speakers individually powered
by 42 individual digital amplifiers and individually
controlled by a special DSP chip. They are not 42
speakers sending out the same signal, but 42 speakers
sending 42 different signals to achieve true multi-channel
surround-sound enjoyment from a single component. |
Q: |
Do
I need a subwoofer for the Digital Sound Projector? |
A: |
Although
it is not mandatory, just like any other home theatre
setup, to achieve a low, rumbling bass, a subwoofer
is always highly recommended. |
Q: |
Will
this technology actually work? |
A: |
Like
any home theatre setup, it depends on the size,
shape and the acoustic of your room, more so it
also depends on the source material you are using.
If you are using a mono signal, there is no way
you can get a true surround sound environment. |
Q: |
How
is the digital sound projector mounted to the wall? |

dealers. |

Can
the Digital sound projector be placed on top of
