FOHHN SOUNDLAB


In July 2022 Bernd Noack and Jo Wnang tuned a VIVACE system to work simultaneously together with an IOSONO 3 d sound system at the NEW Fohhn Sound Lab in Fohhn Audio new facilety in Nurtingen, Germany.


The Fohhn Soundlab is a relatively anechoic ‘dry’ space measuring 30m x 15m x 6m, used by the German loudspeaker manufacturer Fohhn to conduct electro-acoustic tests. But the Soundlab is also used as the home of two of the most advanced sound systems in the world: the IOSONO Immersive Sound system by Barco, and the M-BBM VIVACE system, utilizing a Fohhn fixed-installed 3D loudspeaker system.

How can we effectively showcase the advantages of using active beam steering speaker technology compared to point source speakers in reverberant rooms, all while demonstrating the musical performance of these speaker models? The answer to this question lies in the creation of the Fohhn Soun

VIVACE certified speaker models

Fohhn Audio has a close relationship with Mueller-BBM. Together, they have developed OEM speaker models with tailored properties and specifications to ensure optimal performance within the VIVACE system. Long-throw line speakers placed on the side walls offer extensive coverage throughout the seating area without the risk of source orientation issues. Additionally, the special 10-inch coaxial ceiling speaker combines the required power with a perfect dispersion pattern, ensuring even coverage over both the stage and amphitheater.
