Kalibrate's Advertiser Thread - Take a look for information, offers, news etc.

We are experiencing some issues, with our website (slowing down), caused by the host. We are looking at resolving ASAP, but in the meantime we wanted to introduce PSA (Power Sound Audio) subwoofer. Utilizing twin 18" active drivers and a 1700W Class D Power Amplifier, this has the potential to cause a real rumble at under £2,000 for one, and under £3,700 for two. They are supported by the customary 5 year warranty.

The S3600i offers an unheard of value in the audio industry. Dual high efficiency 18" drivers, a conservatively rated 1700W amplifier with ICEpower® sound technology, and a brand new dual opposed enclosure that relies on Newton's third law of motion to completely cancel all reactive energy. The end result is a subwoofer that extends into the single digits in all but the largest of rooms, offers vision blurring mid and upper bass capabilities, and does all of this while remaining completely inert.

We have started our annual projector rotation, meaning that we have now have the Sony VW520ES 4K projector and Epson LS10000 Laser projector on demo. 2015 JVC projector to be added once released.

Also added to the demo room, is some more 4K demo material, inc BT UHD, Netflix, and Amazon.

Before we received the VW520, we had the chance to bring in a VW320, and test before supplying to our customer. You can see the results of the testing in the attached pdf.

Some of early thoughts on the VW520 can be found in this thread. More information to come soon.

We have arranged some new forum days. As can been in this thread. These will be used to showcase the new Arcam AVR and JVC Projector (pending their arrival), as well as existing kit i.e. Sony VW520ES, and Epson LS10000:)

We will also have a full 5.1 from Power Sound Audio this time too....
 
I thought I would make our followers aware that we currently have one brand new boxed Arcam AVR850 available for supply and install. Our time is getting booked up fairly quickly in the run up to Christmas, but there is still a little time if this is something you are interested in, before the next delivery in January...

With the install of every Arcam, we use a UMIK-1 calibrated microphone, and also can set custom curves depending on the user requirements.

We recently demoed a combination of the Arcam AVR550 and Power Sound Audio Speakers, and you can see some of the comments from some of the listeners in this thread here.
 
Not been here to update for a while, but have a few pieces that we are now moving on:

Power Sound Audio S1500 (ex demo), satin black with square edges. £999. More information here.

Lumagen 2143 4k Video Processor and Scaler. More information here.

We also have the Arcam AVR550 in stock at this time for install. When we install we can create custom targets, and supply a 1u amplifier to power the extra 4 channels for Atmos (if required). More information here.
 
We have a batch of HD Fury Integral on the way to us at the moment.

This 2x2 matrix unit has a number of benefits including:

- Being able to split audio from a video signal (useful when using a legacy HDMI amp with a 4K product i.e. Amazon Fire TV 4K.
- Being able to disable to disable HDR but keep Rec.2020 gamut from UHD Blurays.
- Allowing use of 2 x HDCP2.2 sources when only one HDCP socket on a TV.

We are offering a special AVForums Preorder deal on this first batch, so drop us an email ([email protected]) if you are looking to get a price.
