L-Acoustics has unveiled HYRISS (Hyperreal Immersive Sound Space), a transformative
audio system
that aims to redefine how sound is integrated into space design. HYRISS represents a paradigm shift
by elevating audio to a key element in creating emotionally resonant environments, equal in
importance to visual aesthetics.
In a world where visual design often takes precedence, HYRISS changes the narrative by making sound
an integral part of architectural and interior design. Combining L-Acoustics' state-of-the-art
hardware, software, and services, this innovative system delivers high-quality, adaptable
soundscapes for a variety of settings, including luxury residences, yachts, corporate spaces, and
high-end hospitality venues.
"For too long, the audio experience has been secondary to visual aesthetics in the design of
spaces," says Scott Sugden, Director of Product Management, Solutions at L-Acoustics. "With
HYRISS,
we're changing that narrative. We're providing designers, architects, and engineers with the tools
to create spaces that are as sonically captivating as they are visually stunning, evoking profound
emotions and creating exceptional experiences through the art of sound."
HYRISS enables complete sonic control, allowing environments to be tailored for various experiences.
Whether creating a calm, meditative atmosphere or transforming the space into a lively entertainment
venue, HYRISS eliminates the need for dedicated media rooms. With its capacity to deliver
concert-hall-level sound, the system seamlessly transforms spaces, offering flexibility for any
event or mood.
HYRISS supports a range of audio formats, from simple mono sound to Dolby Atmos soundscapes. Its
three-dimensional loudspeaker network delivers high-resolution sound, offering acoustic comfort and
exceptional clarity. The system is designed to enhance presentations, immerse listeners in music,
and adapt to a venue's acoustics for various activities.
By incorporating discreet in-wall speakers, advanced spatial audio processing, and powerful
amplification, HYRISS achieves concert-quality sound while maintaining visual elegance. This
integration elevates the sensory experience, engaging audiences on both auditory and emotional
levels.
