A Raijuu in the Japanese mythology is a spirit of thunder. This is a symbolic characteristic of the Raijuu range of subwoofers, which are loud, fast and powerful.
The Raijuu loudspeakers are subwoofers operating from 20 Hz to 100 Hz. They are to be coupled to limited-range loudspeakers via an active DSP crossover.

Do you believe the best sound means big speakers?
In the touring industry, big speakers are a plague: Big trucks, large crews, longer setup times and a serious waste of money.
This is the reason why the speakers size reduction of touring equipment has been the mantra for decades now. With success.
Not only the sound equipment has dramatically shrunk in size in the last 30 years, but it has got louder, better and more consistent.
The technologies allowing this are now imported in the most recent designs of Home Cinema, and Audio Excellence is pioneering this trend.
Small is beautiful!

Compact and powerful, the Vertex 2 might not take a lot of space but you can rest assured that its astounding sound pressure will.
A discreet little loudspeaker for a spectacular sound system!

[ Repost @screenexcellence ]
We are so proud!
Cinema Lusso @cinemalusso has received the Cedia EMEA award this year for the best Home Cinema room in category 1 and best lighting design at the same time.
This has been achieved by Ben Goff and his team, who built this stunning room on a tight budget.
This Cedia EMEA award was granted to a cinema room equipped with both Audio Excellence and Screen Excellence's products as main components.
While the main focus of this installation was the aesthetics (and what a success!), the client was very invested in the audio performances and was interested in a system having outstanding dynamics and bass response. A Home Cinema's sound system first and foremost goal should always be to render faithfully the movie's original soundtrack, it should provide an immersive audio experience, allowing viewers to fully suspend disbelief and be transported to the world created by the director. An additional request of the client's was that the sound system's performance remains of the same quality all around the listening area.
The system that Ben selected for delivering the expected high level of audio performance is the Audio Excellence Vertex 2, completed by the Raijuu 1 bass extension subwoofers. 6 x Vertex 1 were also used for the surround sound field. An Audio Excellence Quattro 06 feeds the front Vertex 2 and Raijuu 1, the other channels being handled by the Anthem AVR.
The Vertex 2 are located behind an A.T. projection screen, a Screen Excellence Discovery of 100 inches base width.
A thoroughly calibrated SIM 2 projector provides an imaging up to the highest standard attained by this installation.
Creating this room during the Covid-19 Pandemic created its own technical challenges that Ben handled with creativity, and an engineer living on site during part of the works!

ONLY 2 cm FROM THE SPEAKERS !
It’s a beautiful home cinema installation. A cosy atmosphere. Seats are heavenly comfortable. The acoustics is perfect. High-end loudspeakers will make you believe your are in the movie you’re watching or the concert you are listening to. An acoustically transparent screen behind which you can hide the speakers for optimum sound coherence and aesthetics that is… not so much acoustically transparent ? It needs to be at least 10 inches away from the front of the speakers or it will ruin their sound ? The room’s plans need to be reconsidered, we have much less space than originally planned ? Really?
Think, everything was going so well…
Yes, more often than not, the screen needs to be located to have its back as far away as 25 to 35 cm of distance from the speakers front. At least, this is what most screens manufacturers strongly suggest anyway.
Why is that?
Because the acoustic transparency of the screen is… not so good ?
You certainly are aware of real estate’s prices, and so are your clients. Very acutely so, I’d bet.
Now, here is a simple calculation :
(0.25 m x Screenwidth x Real estate sq.m price) = Well, this is a very, very expensive screen !
This issue should certainly not be your clients problem, nor yours. The performance of a product is the manufacturer’s responsibility. At Screen Excellence we take that at heart.
Our woven screens allow the projection surface to be located as close as 2 cm from the front of the loudspeakers, without losing any sound quality and precision.
This is space saving, together with the ultimate sound transparency.
To go one step beyond, select shallow On-wall or In-wall speakers like our Audio Excellence Vertex range.
Not only you’ll make a great space-saving, but you’ll reach the ultimate performance a Home Cinema can offer.
