Powersoft Quattrocanali amplifiers power Dolby Atmos technology at Cineplexx Westfield SCS in Vienna

Powersoft’s Quattrocanali amplifier platform is central to a recently completed Dolby Atmos install at Cineplexx Westfield SCS, a luxury multiplex in Vienna, Austria. Following a refurbishment, the multiplex partnered with CinemaNext to introduce a blend of audio and projection technologies in every room.

Among the ten rooms, six are equipped with Dolby Atmos immersive sound, with two rooms featuring Powersoft amplifiers. The “Unique” room, seating 254 people, has rows of seats arranged in a freestanding U-shape, centred in the middle of the room, providing the best view for everyone, whereas the “Ultimate” room has a standard layout and features Dolby Atmos sound.

The two rooms are equipped with Powersoft Quattrocanali 1204, 4804 and 8804 amplifiers to drive five Dolby System 133 three-way screen speakers and handle bass management. “We chose the Quattrocanali amplifiers due to their power output meeting the demands of the Dolby Screen system in the two rooms”, explains Christof Federle, CinemaNext’s general manager in Austria. Another reason the amplifier platform was selected, was due to its integration with the Dolby processor via AES67.

Installed discreetly in a rack room behind each screen, where the projector and Dolby processor are located, the Powersoft amplifiers seamlessly integrate with Dolby CP950A for Dolby Atmos certification by using AES67 connectivity, providing an immersive cinematic journey for rooms two and three.
