360 Spatial Sound that adapts to your environment

D.C.A.C. IX ingeniously measures the height and position of each speaker with a calibration microphone.

The AN1000 features 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology to draw you into your entertainment like never before. Based on the positional information measured by D.C.A.C. IX, multiple phantom speakers are generated all around you, for an entirely new sound sensation. You can experience all the drama of Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X® alongside every breath, step and word like you’re right inside the film.
