TV Sound gets the Geneva makeover.
Geneva’s ‘Model Cinema’ TV Sound-Base sets the level for TV sound with signature style and functionality…
Demand from TV users for better sound and space economy has allowed Geneva to flex its world-famous design acumen with the Model Cinema, a luxury TV sound system/stand, enhanced by the brand’s famously minimalist aesthetics, immaculate construction and accurate size-defying sound quality.
All the virtues that have propelled Geneva to the super-league of home entertainment design are powerfully resolved. From a stylishly neutral matt white or black cabinet under the control of a simple and intuitive remote handset, Model Cinema integrates advanced digital processing technology with exemplary audio engineering and smart connectivity to develop a superior sound-base, wider in both capability and audio coverage.
Far more than a TV accessory, Model Cinema is a lifestyle sound system bristling with options and luxury user features. To the sound-base form factor, Model Cinema adds Bluetooth functionality for the easy playback of music files from smartphones and tablets. Auto input selection and power on/off promote effortless operation while proprietary Digital Signal Processing (DSP) offers the seamless optimisation of TV or movie sound from a choice of three inputs (analogue RCA, digital optical and coax), supported by dbx-TV’s ‘TotalVolume’ algorithm, which automatically equalises volume when changing channels and during commercial breaks. An additional stereo mini-jack connector allows further audio sources to take advantage of Model Cinema’s accomplished audio architecture.

Within Model Cinema’s slender enclosure, three individual acoustic chambers play host to no fewer than five drivers. Four 2” tweeter/mids and a single 5.25” woofer are driven individually by matching Class D amplifiers, DSP calibrated for optimum output across a prodigious 120W of available power. Throwing a wide spectrum of sound way beyond the limits normally expected of such a compact design, the Model Cinema employs Geneva’s signature ‘Embracing Sound HD’ technology to intensify its deceptively-wide, accurate and dynamic audio response.
Ease of control from the slender remote is augmented by touch-sensitive buttons on the cabinet top in tandem with an elegant LED display, which is easy to read in daylight and auto-adjusts for low-light conditions.
In characteristic fashion, Geneva has turned an everyday TV accessory into a beautifully integrated statement of design excellence. The Model Cinema is an altogether more sophisticated sound-base system, effortless to use, generously connected, skilfully optimised and equipped to transform the experience of TV sound.
