August,
2016 - Since 2003, a small team of gifted engineers have
passionately pursued high performance audio, with a focus on
3D sound reproduction and active room acoustics, under the
name of Trinnov
Audio.
Until recently, most of the resulting products have been used
in the professional and commercial cinema markets.
The
company started writing the product specification for the
Altitude32
at the end of 2013 with the intent of establishing a new
reference in the High-End AV processor market by leveraging
the company’s unique know-how and core technologies. Within
less than a year, the Altitude32 was introduced at
CEDIA with the world’s first Dolby Atmos®
for the Home demonstration, featuring more than 12 discrete
channels.
After 2½ years of intensive work and
commitment, we are excited and honored to receive this unique
and meaningful recognition.
The
Altitude32 has just been selected the Best Product 2016-2017 in
the High-End Home Theater category
by the European Imaging and Sound Association.

EISA
magazines from all over Europe and the Home Theater Audio
Expert Group have been jointly reviewing and nominating
products, and subsequently voting for this prestigious award.
Here
is the citation from EISA’s president Paul
Miller: |

"Serious
home cinema enthusiasts seeking the very best experience need
look no further than Trinnov Audio's Altitude32.
Able to output up to 32 discrete channels, this is no ordinary
home cinema processor. Advanced, fully-customisable room
optimisation and equalisation enables it to tailor its sound
to the specific speaker layout and characteristics of a home
theatre, and it will map any Dolby
Atmos®,
DTS:XTM
or Auro-3D®
native feed without breaking into a sweat. The outcome is a
reference-class performance, with the Altitude32
bringing astonishing clarity and definition, scale and
presence, to movie soundtracks. Software-based architecture
means it is ready for future updates, and despite its
state-of-the-art feature set, operation is always easy with
networked control from a PC, smartphone or tablet."

Richard
Stevenson, journalist from Home Cinema
Choice,
the EISA Magazine partner in the UK reviewed the
Altitude32 in last month's issue. He
concluded: |
|
|
|
"How
to sum up the Altitude32? There's probably no more
flexible AV processor currently available for home cinema. Its
ability to switch fleet-footed between sound formats is
remarkable; its sound is precise, authoritative and balanced.
Yes,
it’s expensive, but the best things often are."

Jochen
Schmitt reviewed the Altitude32 in the July issue
of a Heimkino
in Germany and ended his article with the
following: |
|
|
|
"The
AV processor Altitude32 from the French
manufacturer Trinnov is the ultimate machine to bring
professional standards of fidelity to home theaters. Trinnov’s
Optimizer technology works perfectly and makes it possible to
handle even the most complex systems. Our
new reference."
|
|

|
|
Finally,
a recently-published review by Doug Blackburn of the US-based
magazine Widescreen Review (not a member of EISA) describes
his experience with the Altitude32 thusly:
|
|
|
|
"The
Altitude32 made music sound so good that one-hour
evaluations turned into three-hour listening fests. Sometimes
I would pick several albums in a row that were so compelling
to hear at this level of performance that I would end up
listening to the entire album rather than a track or two...
You may be thinking ahead and assuming if music
sounded that good, then movie sound was equally impressive.
Well, hold on for just a second. That’s a bit presumptive.
Presumptive but correct. Movie sound was impeccable. It didn’t
matter if the soundtrack was 5.1, 7.1, Atmos, DTS:X, or
Auro-3D, they all sounded great...
If the
Altitude32 fits within your equipment budget, you
can’t go wrong. The combination of precision, sound quality,
flexibility, adjustability, and stability the
Altitude32 offers are unbeatable."

More
reviews of the Altitude32 from EISA partners (and
others) will be released over the next several months,
including magazines from Finland, Italy, Spain and Sweden.
