XOUNTS Hamburg GmbH
XOUNTS NOMINATED FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SOUND AWARD
The world’s largest indoor music festival, the Reeperbahnfest takes place this autumn in Hamburg. The International Sound Awards are presented here, for the fifth time in a row. The jury of the ISA is convinced by the groundbreaking technology, the speech recognition, and the entire XOUNTS concept. Thus XOUNTS got nominated for these two categories:
Research & Development – research category, audio software & hardware development. Digital Product Sound design – all product designs with digital or electronic product sound. WHAT IS XOUNTS UP? The multi-talent XOUNTS UP is a symbiosis of perfect 360° stereo sound, atmospheric lighting, and cutting-edge technology. In addition to a completely new design, integrated lighting, and an individualized outer cover, the obelisk offers new future-orientated technology and exceptional flexibility. Thus, XOUNTS UP stands for a completely separate and new product category in the area of multi-room systems. XOUNTS – MAKES THE WORLD SOUND BETTER! XOUNTS UP is a cutting-edge sound system with newly developed flat membrane technology. While conventional sound systems are equipped with high- and mid-range membranes, XOUNTS UP two surface membranes ensure that the pyramid shaped sound body vibrates. This ensures a homogeneous room soundscape. The subwoofer does not rely on existing technology, but rather on Bassreflex technology which was specially developed for the unusual shape and is integrated into the base as a down-firing subwoofer. This is why it is possible to create a full 360 ° stereo sound with only one device. MODULARITY FOR FULL FREEDOM A main consideration during the development phase was to make XOUNTS UP an open, modular system, thereby enabling full compatibility. In commercially available devices, technologies such as Bluetooth, wireless or lighting options are processed directly within the circuit boards. With XOUNTS UP, an infrastructure has been created to implement all current technologies easily in the interior of the pyramid. This is ensured, among other things, by the integrated E 27 socket for all commercially available lamps, such as Philips HUE or LifX, and a separate power connection. XOUNTS SOUND & DESIGN The main focus in the creation of XOUNTS UP was the customizable outer design cover. The interchangeable outer shells, so-called “Style Covers”, are hand-made in Germany and individually designed and stand for a unique look. The user has the opportunity to become creative and create his own Style Cover. The user can either create his own graphic design or he has the option to select from the XOUNTS collection of Style Covers in-stock. XOUNTS VOICE CONTROL Thanks to Amazon and other providers, Voice Control is the talk of the town, and XOUNTS UP is the first modular system to have it. The Alexa Voice Control can be integrated easily in XOUNTS UP top- case and the user can voice commands to XOUNTS UP and Alexa comfortably from his sofa. THE Audio Branding Academy & THE INTERNATIONAL SOUND AWARD The Audio Branding Academy (ABA) was founded in Hamburg in 2009. The ABA is the only institution that deals with innovative and future-oriented products from the field of sound. Every year, outstanding musical projects are selected as part of the “International Sound Award” award ceremony. True to the motto “Make the world sound better”, the ISA is looking for the best sound solutions and technical innovations. This year the Sound Award will be chosen for the fifth time in a row and will take place on 21th of September at the Reeperbahnfestival in Hamburg, St.Pauli. The ISA jury is made up of internationally renowned and certified sound experts, each year looking at the best of acoustic architecture, audio branding, digital sound apps and much more.
