Crestron's nearly 10,000-square-foot booth at
CEDIA Expo 2009, as you might expect, house the latest in control, automation and Web-based technologies.
What you wouldn't expect, however, is that the demo of Crestron's Procise line in the company's sound room was one of the best system demos at the show.
The Procise line includes the
PSPHD Processor, PROAMP Amplifier, ADMS Server and ADC-200BR Blu-ray Disc Changer.
Crestron walked attendees through some of the system's features, which include:
- Interoperability with its control products
- Web-based streaming of content and metadata information
- Audyssey EQ
- Uncompressed audio processing
- RAID backup
Crestron then used a clip from "Iron Man" to prove it's capable of offering solutions outside its core line that are as good as those that come from traditional home theater manufacturers.
The sound room itself was also pretty impressive, engineered with acoustical treatments and supported by a nice array of screen, projector, and speaker products.
The Procise line, and the affirmation it provided with its CEDIA sound room demo, shows the custom industry that Crestron is now a player in the home theater category.
