23CH Grimani Systems & Storm Audio Dirac ART Demo Experience!

- One of the highlights of CEDIA 2023 was visiting Anthony Grimani's demo room which was meticulously engineered to have the best possible sound in a trade show environment. This 23CH system consisted of Grimani Systems loudspeakers and new 21" Infrasonic subs, Storm Audio Processing with Dirac Art room correction, Row One Seating, Seymour AV screen and Barco Projection all in a 24' x 16' x10' space. The demo was dynamic and punchy and very consistent sounding for the seating area. The bass was goosed up a bit hot to overcome the noise floor of the show but it never sounded boomy or bloated thanks to proper subwoofer placement and equalization. This is a fully active system meaning no passive crossovers and EVERY speaker is DSP tuned and optimized by the man himself. Anthony discusses the process he uses in designing custom theaters to meet his clients needs. He also uses a new digital standard to connect all of the amplification to the Storm processor with a single Cat6 cable!

I'm so happy for Anthony Grimani's new additions to the audio world! I have no doubt he will do real well in the industry. However, the downside is that a lot of the social shopping we used to do, as well as going to the movies, just don't happen on the scale it used to. Shopping centers around the globe are closing shop do to thievery. Also, with what is going down in Hollywood (Epstein), and P. Diddy (Shan Comes), and all the people behind the entities. I just feel that a lot of social things we used to do will fade away, or change in real dramatic ways. I am in great hopes that Anthony is considering a home line of speakers. Because, I do believe he could be very profitable in this area as well. I just know that if I ever hit the power ball, or inherit a fortune, I am definitely contact Gene, and Anthony! Thanks for sharing Gene! 🙂
Really great to see Anthony again. I watched all his webinars on acoustics and treatments and designed the room in my new house around his presentations. Top Bloke.
part of dolby team of thief's stolen my idea 1989 and no stormaudio doesn't work it has flaws
@@thetrueprohomecinemasound175 I know he was at Dolby and THx - but what idea did they steal? I dont have storm, I have Anthem AVM-90
Legends in the space. Period. Thanks Gene And Anthony!
It would be great if Anthony could come back on and discuss the pros and cons of ART. And how to use Art in conjunction with room treatments
Great stuff. Love to see you paisans together!
Hey Gene, Are there any plans to have Anthony on to do a deep dive about infrasonic bass and what steps need to be taken to get the best from those kinds of subs?
I can ask
@@Audioholics I'm sure we can make that happen if you'd like. I'll reach out to Anthony this week on it, and then shoot you an email.
Impressive! If I heard correctly, the Strom Audio processor is able to create and assign each speaker its own IP address, as it’s utilizing one cat 6 cable fed through a switch for distribution. If that’s the case, does that mean the processor is able to create as many digital channels as one desires?
Yes!
Both of you seem to be mistaken. In the Grimani system, each amplifier has its own dedicated IP address, and each amplifier channel is independently assignable. Unlike traditional setups where a single amplifier channel drives one speaker, the Grimani system dedicates an amplifier channel to each driver within a speaker. For instance, a 2-way speaker utilizes two amplifier channels, a 3-way speaker uses three, and a 4-way speaker requires four.
Storm Audio can process channels at the speaker level. On a more advanced level, the PowerSound amplifiers divide the audio channel based on whether it's for a 2-way, 3-way speaker, etc. This eliminates the need for traditional crossovers in the speakers, offering unprecedented granular control over sound quality that we haven't seen in conventional home systems. I believe this is the future of audio technology.
I find the current trend of active speakers to be lacking. The game will truly change when we see active speakers equipped with discrete digital amplifiers for each driver. Genelec's ONE series monitors are already pioneering this approach.
@pumpituphomeboy RBH Sound already does this with their SVTRS System. Independent amps for every driver. As does Grimani. His amps have built in DSP per channel to control drivers and EQ.
Fantastic guys, turn-key at its finest. 👍Couldn't make this yrs show unfortunately; haven't missed many!
Hope you cats continue your multi-part YT series which have been GREAT over the years! Would love a mild departure..... Dedicate an hour stream on overcoming acoustics in "difficult rooms/spaces", particularly larger greatrooms- which we're finding builders are building fewer lower ceiling living rooms and rather an all downstairs large greatroom/dining/kitchen/foyer room! Much appreciated.
anthony the man!
Wow 23 channels, thats crazy driving all that, how on earth, is that processed in 7 channel dts/dolby x 3 speakers per channel?😊
24CH Storm Audio ISP. Links in video description.
Tell us more about Dirac ART! I haven't seen a single review of it yet.
I will be running Art on my system in November. More to come....
Looking forward to that! Rumour has it that it is coming to Denon & Marantz pretty soon.
I experienced 3 rooms with it at MWAVE 2023 (the first consumer showing of it), and it was great. In the Room Calibration Blind Comparison Room it was so oblivious which one was ART, because the bass was so much better. I had him switch ART off to compare it to normal Dirac, and it was night and day. I had him run all of the blind tests with ART turned off because of this. I'm hoping my SDP-55 gets it, because I'd love to test it at home.
@@andrewskaterrr Wow, thanks! Can't wait to hear it myself.
Wonderful interview, enhanced by the mutual arm waving. If I mute the video, it could well be a demo of how to conduct the Halley Orchestra for duo conducters😂
Just realised we've not seen Hugo from marketing for a while.
Hugo is busy calculating gravitational effects of traveling around our sun in attempts to time travel to bring back humpback whales to save our planet from a future space probe from ionizing our atmosphere.
27 channels seems too complex to be getting accurate sound reproduction. Why are so many channels needed?
24 (4 are subs) and if done right, it improves panning and spatiality across entire seated area.
I get the Cocoon sound idea where you have wonderful pinpoint sound in your private movie theater. I'm just not sure I wanna pay $200,000+ for one of his systems. I mean Hey if a part goes out five years from now...sorry...we no longer make that as it's been replaced by a newer model. Maybe no backwards compatibility with future repairs and upgrades. Need a house call for small repairs...that'll be $2000 please. The more complex the system the more that can go wrong. So if your into Home theater mostly and have deep pockets go for it. It's a hard sell for the other 95% of us out there. Might be interesting to see various price points of his different installations and testimonials from happy customers.
People are always at various price points for their equipment, and no problems with that. Anthony has helped calibrate more than 1,000 systems, and the reality is that until abut 8 years ago, he was calibrating other brands of speakers until he decided to develop his own.
The focus is really on building a proper room, adding acoustics to make it sound right, and then calibrating the speakers to be as transparent and even-sounding as possible from seat-to-seat. That's important no matter the system, and many of the larger system pricetags include the engineering, acoustics, and calibration, in addition to the speakers and amplifiers themselves.
The products are solid, and are designed so that replacement parts are readily available. Things can happen though with any electronic, but the idea is that these are simpler to maintain, including being able to change calibrations and troubleshoot products remotely, so that you don't need to spend as much for a house call.
We'll be working on some case studies and testimonials. I don't know how low price point-wise they will go, but I always like to show different levels of systems. Plus even the smalls put out a ton of accurate sound at high SPL, and include the amplification, so it is likely a better fit for those looking to save on the overall spend.
I trust Grimani's knowledge in room acoustics but as soon as he starts talking about his speakers he turns into a salesman. I have no experience with his speakers but according to his website they use dome tweeters for the smaller models, CD only for the large ones, also being active is not special neither. So I'm skeptical them being that great as he says since you don't see his speakers used in big projects nor I can see rooms at AVS but you can gather many with Alcons, Wisdom, Ascendo etc. By the way, Alcons and AScendo are highly regarded but no award for them so it seems to me that CEDIA awards are meaningless. Sorry if I sounded rude, didn't mean to :)
Anthony's speakers are very good despite your assumptions. They just aren't cheap so they are mostly in upscale installations. Active speakers are special when tuned correctly.
@@Audioholics I said I don't know, I didn't say they are bad :) Have you heard the other speakers I mentioned? Alcons and Ascendo both had demos
@@unknownuser0006 I have heard demos of Ascendos in past trade shows. I had to walk out because it was uncomfortably loud, unfortunately.
@@Audioholics lol , know what say if can pick speaker up it must be rubbish , looks like made out of bolster wood
@@Audioholics yeah it's hard to do a proper sealed room within few days as Anthony mentioned too, but it's true to his speakers as well and they surely better in proper rooms. So showrooms are not ideal to make final judgement. All of these speakers must be great in proper rooms and calibration. Anyway, thanks for the CEDIA coverage :) Sorry again if I came off rude
What demo song was it again? Derrick Trucks??
Damn I wish I Shazamed it while I was there. Sorry.
