New module lowers the cost of Atmos-based
soundbars and minimizes the number of speakers required for true
immersive audio
WiSA Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: WISA), a leading provider of
immersive, wireless sound technology for intelligent devices and
next-generation home entertainment systems, has added 3-channel
output capabilities to its WiSA E receiver module. Three separate
wireless audio channels can now be combined into a single speaker
enclosure significantly reducing system cost while maintaining the
immersive ATMOS sound field that everyone has come to enjoy. For
example, in a 7.1.4 soundbar system, one WiSA E Rx module can
enable rear channel support for two surround channels (e.g., right
surround, right rear) as well as an up-firing height channel,
further minimizing the number of discrete speakers required for a
soundbar to deliver Atmos immersive audio.

“This is a game changer for soundbar manufacturers that want to
offer a compact, fully immersive 7.1.4 audio system without giving
up audio performance,” says Tony Parker, vice president of business
development and strategy. “With 3-channels of receiver output in
combination with a single WiSA E receiver, soundbars can combine
multiple speakers into four discrete enclosures; what used to
require 11 different discrete speakers can now be delivered with 4
speaker enclosures.”
WiSA E offers the highest quality wireless 8-channel audio on
the market with 24-bit high-resolution, tight speaker
synchronization and a fixed low latency of 20 ms. With its
3-channel out capability, WiSA E modules maintain this highest
quality while minimizing the number of speaker enclosures required
for advanced 7.1.4 Atmos sound systems. WiSA Technologies will be
demonstrating its WiSA E 3-channel output functionality at CES 2024
in Las Vegas.
