Homemation: Home Automation Experience Centre  October 2018, Kramerville Johannesburg, Homemation, the AV, home automation and theatre specialists, recently revealed their state-of-the-art Experience Centre.   Guests were welcomed into the awe-inspiring, spacious Scandi-style showroom, offered drinks and enjoyed snacks from the live sushi chef. They were able to walk through the ‘home of the future’ viewing invisible speakers, drop down screens, automated blinds and even a robot vacuum cleaner. The spaces were alive with the sound of people talking excitedly about high-tech offerings and tempting DJ’ing coming from outside.

The ‘home’ is completely automated, which means that using voice, or the touch of a button, lights are turned off, on or dimmed, the blinds can be adjusted, stove switched on, fireplace lit and music of choice streamed through a variety of speakers – even ones that are completely hidden in the ceiling.   Walking into the lounge, the invisible Stewart Filmscreen screen and JVC projector emerge from the ceiling for an even more immersive experience.   The bedroom features an LED strip light behind the bed that is motion activated when you get up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night.   The room that fascinated most, was the THX “CANNES” cinema room where guests could experience a thrilling car chase that had the hairs on the back of their necks stand upright!

After the tours, the house warming bourgeoned into a real party… live sushi, premium gin and whisky bars and the ultimate DJ’s Small Paul, Roger Goode and international acclaimed Timo ODV!   Founders and Joint CEOs, Nicholas Gliksman and Daniel Mclean, welcomed everyone and their pride of seeing their dream become a reality was evident as they shared the vision behind the first Home Automation Experience Centre in the country. It is a world-class experience, comparable to the US and UK markets. The scale is exciting – a mini-house fitted out with tech, home automation, home cinemas and AV. It is 500m2 and has a kitchen, dining room, living room, TV room, bedroom and even a patio equipped with outdoor speakers.

Homemation showcases their premium brands – Steinway, Stewart Filmscreen, Monitor Audio, Klipsch, Polk, Denon, Rotel and Triad to name a few, across their four movie and music rooms (and if you’re in Joburg, pop me an email for a private viewing).   “What is great is that it is relatable to your own home and we can demonstrate real-life scenarios with cutting edge technology”, enthuses Nic. “It is the home of the future here and now, nimble and evolving to change, with voice-controlled lighting and appliances. It demonstrates the Internet of Things seamless integration and in true Homemation fashion, the audio and visuals are seamless, practically invisible and still deliver performance.”, shares Dan.

The Polk story began in the early 1970s, when a few friends from Johns Hopkins University, with a passion for sound—and music on their mind, set out to capture the wonder of the live concert experience and bring it home. Matt Polk and his close-knit crew of rock 'n roll mad scientists left an indelible mark on the world. What started as a garage project in an old Victorian rooming house in Baltimore, Maryland, quickly became a legacy that never wavered from its original vision: Searching out new solutions in high-fidelity sound, while engineering reliable speakers to span the generations.

Polk knows sound. It's their only focus. Their intention is to always uphold the principles of a real HiFi.

Great sound for everyone. Features

• Broadens Soundstage for Smaller Speakers - Wide Dispersion Array o Produces a wide, enveloping soundstage that’s tuned specifically for minimum cabinet size.
  
  
• Patented Port Geometry Increases Bass Without Distortion - Power Port o Dramatically reduces port air turbulence for greater bass impact and lower distortion with less amplifier power.
  
  
• Patented Crossover Technology Creates A Wider Sweet Spot - Cascade Crossover o Removes unwanted interference in the speaker array for a seamless, lifelike soundstage no matter where you're sitting in the room.
  
  
• Controls Dialogue Volume Levels - Voice Adjust o Isolate and adjust the voice channel level to reproduce clear, crisp dialogue and never miss a single word of your favourite movie, TV show or sporting event with this patented technology.

Homemation, the exclusive distributors of THORENS, have the perfect Father's Day gift idea (it's the perfect gift for all vinyl-lovers...) 

Turntables are an increasingly popular trend – and come in a variety of modern to retro styles. If you’re looking for THORENS, they are available exclusively through Homemation distributors.

Founded in 1883 in St. Croix, Switzerland, THORENS is the oldest consumer electronics manufacturer in the world. Their mission is to have the highest standards in precision and design. Renowned for the range of turntables they produce Traditional Values reinterpreted - paying homage to the legendary models of the sixties and seventies, THORENS® has reinterpreted the sub-chassis turntable with state-of-the-art, ground-up development using the latest materials.

Highest fidelity and dynamics were their main priorities during the development of the new turntable series. However, they also placed great importance on user-friendliness, timeless aesthetics as well as flexible configuration and upgrade options while retaining the traditional sub-chassis design.

THORENS® revives an old idea and introduces a new series of suspended sub-chassis turntables. From the foundation of a rich heritage, THORENS® take a huge step toward the future by re-thinking a complex design: the suspended sub-chassis turntable. The launch comprises three new models. TD 903, TD 905 and TD 907, all of which share the three-spring sub-chassis design that is so highly regarded among vinyl lovers. The new models are a deliberate reminiscence of legendary models such as the TD 150 and TD 160, top-selling turntables in their day.

The THORENS® engineers painstakingly fine-tuned each of the three sub-chassis designs. Carefully applied weights allow the three springs to be distributed evenly, with the same tension for each spring, thus ensuring true pistonic movement of the sub-chassis. This efficiently isolates the turntable from all sources of external vibrations.

These turntables are stylish and look as good as the sounds they produce!  Homemation is the exclusive, specialist, South African suppliers of premium branded audiovisual and home theatre products. The brands in their stable offer some of the most advanced and sought-after AV and home automation technologies in the world.
