Krix Home Cinema London
A Very High End Home Cinema in London featuring Krix Speakers
High end home cinema rooms need the best audio and video solutions available. For this stunning room in London we partnered with Australian company Krix — manufacturers of some of the world’s best speaker systems. We go into more detail on the audio solution below, but rest assured that this 18-seater cinema excels in every way.
The Krix Speaker System
This room utilises a total of 22 Krix speakers. The range-topping Krix MX-40 Infinite Baffle Wall is installed behind the 5m acoustically transparent Screen Innovations projector screen. The pictures don’t show the true scale of this solution — each of the subwoofers features an 18″ driver, ensuring huge amounts of bass throughout the room. Each row of seating benefits from its own pair of Krix Megaphonix surround speakers — to ensure a uniform experience no matter which row you are sat in — and the rear wall also features a pair for a fully immersive experience. Height channels are handled by 9 Krix in-ceiling speakers, enhancing the immersive experience with 3D audio formats decoded by a top-of-the-range Trinnov Altitude audio system. The huge 5m screen shows a picture provided by the range-topping Sony VPL-GTZ380 projector, with a stunning 10,000 lumens of light from a laser light source and 4K resolution.
The Cinema Seating
The custom-designed and custom-finished seating is provided by our friends at Cineak, with each seat independently controlled by buttons in each armrest. Electric motors adjust elements such as the headrests, backrests and footrests to ensure a completely comfortable position for each and every cinema-goer. When the film is finished and the room is shut down, each chair automatically returns to its default position to keep the room looking tidy.

Finishing Touches and Room Construction
The room benefits from a full acoustic design and fit-out, with fabric walls hiding not only the strategically placed acoustic treatments but also the majority of the speaker system. A Crestron control system ensures easy control of all the audio visual equipment and also precise control of each and every light fitting — allowing us to create different lighting scenes for viewing and general circulation in the room. A full lighting design ensures the room looks its best, with no light sources detracting from the main use of the room: enjoying the audio visual experience.
