"The system is inspired by the Linden Lichtspiele cinema in Ilmenau, Germany. The theatre uses 192 speakers, and was designed around the concept "that a sound wave can be recreated by a multiplicity of small sound sources placed closely adjacent to one another along the wave front," according to a press release."
