frequently asked questions

what makes krix a reliable choice for commercial cinema installations?

Krix loudspeakers are engineered and manufactured entirely in Australia, offering short lead times, strict quality control, and over 50 years of cinema audio expertise. With systems installed in over 4,500 cinemas globally, Krix is trusted by leading chains, integrators, and AV professionals.

Do you offer complete cinema audio solutions or just speakers?

We offer complete, scalable systems, including matched screen speakers, subwoofers, surrounds, Trinnov Ovation processors, and LEA amplifiers. Every package is tailored to your room size, layout, and performance requirements, with in-house design support included.

Can Krix systems be used in LED screen cinemas or non-traditional venues?

Yes. Krix has engineered purpose-built loudspeakers specifically for LED cinemas, where traditional behind-screen placement isn’t possible. Models like the KX-5720 are designed for above- or below-screen installation, featuring a compact, tilt-ready enclosure and patented constant directivity horn for precise localisation and even coverage. These solutions preserve audio alignment with on-screen visuals, critical in solid-screen environments.

Krix has also supplied custom speaker systems for a wide range of non-traditional and outdoor cinema venues, including open-air events, pop-up cinemas, and architectural installations. With in-house design and manufacturing, we can quickly develop weather-resistant or site-specific loudspeakers to meet the acoustic and environmental demands of unique spaces.

How quickly can I get Krix products delivered to my project site?

Thanks to local manufacturing, we offer rapid lead times, typically 2–6 weeks, with smaller orders often fulfilled sooner. We also support air or sea freight worldwide and provide all required shipping documentation for seamless logistics.

Are your speaker systems compatible with immersive audio formats?

Absolutely. Our systems support 3D audio formats and advanced surround configurations, including overhead and full-dimensional sound. Krix’s immersive solutions are used in premium cinemas to meet Dolby Atmos and other format requirements.

Do Krix speakers meet industry performance standards?

Yes. All Krix speakers are tested to AES2-2012 standards, and each unit undergoes rigorous testing in our in-house anechoic chamber to ensure consistency in frequency response, distortion, and phase-critical for commercial cinema environments.

How does Krix help cinema operators deliver a superior audience experience?

Our constant directivity horn technology ensures even coverage, while high-SPL drivers deliver clean, powerful sound. The result is consistent, immersive audio that engages audiences and keeps them coming back- seat after seat, session after session.
