ah well, bad choice of words. "below expectations" would have been
better. the IEM cube (24 speaker hemisphere)
I looked at the photo here: http://iem.at/services/studios/cube And I
fail to see a hemisphere.
the photo was made with an extreme fisheye and stitched. the four "big"
speakers in the top row actually form a square above your head, the
eight slightly smaller ones (which are the same model, just distorted by
the lens) are an elevated ring, and the twelve ones roughly at ear
height represent the equator ring.
In any event, how does a cube become
hemispheric? Or is this just a flowery use of language?
the facility is called the cube, probably for the shape of the room, but
the speaker layout is hemispheric.
btw, the small black specks you see in the photo are a bunch of control
1s for a room reverberation system.
