Starke Sound’s “Family Room” in SR #14
demonstrates total customizable solutions from Acurus
Indianapolis, IN – August
29, 2019 – The American brand Acurus will be showing a spectrum of
entertainment solutions at this year’s CEDIA Expo in Denver. Visitors to booth
#1533 will see several stations – one showcasing the Acurus ACT 4 20-channel
immersive processor paired with A2007 amplifiers; another showcasing the Acurus
MUSE 16-channel immersive processor paired with M8 amplifiers; another station
will feature ASPEQT, the new proprietary acoustic metrology tool which can be
used in conjunction with Acurus immersive processors. Visitors can see the
ASPEQT system kit contents and learn how APSEQT can resolve an integrator’s
room correction challenges using a simple, quick, and accurate optimization
tool.
“CEDIA this year is about
the versatility of our products and how integrators can use them to create a
huge variety of unparalleled audio experiences for their customers,” said Rick
Santiago, CEO of Acurus. “Our processors and amplifiers can be used to build
dozens of combinations to suit integrators’ needs. The flexibility of Acurus
products allows an integrator to both optimize their install efficiency and
their customer’s demand for authentic audio reproduction. To complete the
solutions, we’ve launched our proprietary room correction system ASPEQT
(Automatic Speaker Parameter and Equalization Tool).”
Santiago continues, “This
wonderful acoustic measurement and analysis tool brings the same beautiful UI
and ease-of-use found in all Acurus products.
It’s a game-changer in the world of room correction with its
integrator-friendly approach, which, when combined with Acurus processors will
create a “soup-to-nuts” entertainment solution for integrators and the end
customer.”
Starke Sound has chosen
the Acurus MUSE immersive processor to power its 7.2 sound booth demo at CEDIA
Expo 2019. Visitors will experience an
unforgettable expression of surround audio through the new Acurus MUSE
immersive media room processor and Starke Sound’s speakers at Sound Room #14.
“This year at CEDIA,
Starke Sound presents the “Family Room,” a gathering place for entertaining the
whole family with music, concert videos, movies and games,” said Desmond Fretz of
Starke Sound. “To realize the full
potential of our loudspeakers, we developed and manufacture a unique, Class A,
multi-channel amplifier. But sound quality is only as good as the source.”
Fretz continues, “We chose
the new Acurus MUSE immersive pre-amp processor to decode and deliver the best
possible signals in an affordable, easy-to-use, custom AV system. In testing we
were unprepared for the extent to which this approach would improve
performance. With MUSE auto sound mode, no adjustments, sound quality was
dramatically improved compared to that with an AVR: greater clarity,
definition, vocal naturalness. Imaging is fantastically better with a full,
seamless, immersive sound field, much improved mid-bass and a liquid treble
reproduction. Musical realism is astonishing, out-of-the-box. The result is far
greater entertainment value. We will take this to the highest level with full
calibration in SR-14 at CEDIA Expo. All are invited to our Family Room where we
will be staging memorable experiences.”

world-renowned audio performance and is a premium brand for home cinema and
media room installs. The engineering in Acurus immersive processors,
