Multichannel playback assumes that the speaker configuration respects a standard layout (ITU recommendation used in studios). To get a faithful listening experience the listener must respect this recommendation. In most playback environments, speaker placement is a compromise and the resulting multichannel image is highly distorted.

Trinnov Optimizer provides loudspeaker placement flexibility while maintaining correct ITU 5.1 imaging in listening environment. With Optimizer the listener places his loudspeakers where he can/wants in his living room and benefits from a reliable sound experience.

For the first time, the surround sound is reconciled with the living room.

- Loudspeaker 3D positions (distance, azimuth and elevation with precision better than 1cm/2°)
- Loudspeaker characteristics (frequency, phase/group delay response, diffraction over the enclosure)
- Loudspeaker/room interaction (room modes, early reflections, tonal balance of the room).
- In addition, the Optimizer provides a N-speakers management: any multichannel signal format (5.1, 6.1, 7.1, ?) can be replayed on a N speaker irregular configuration.
