This bad news includes Japan’s financial regulators assessing the largest fine ever in the history of the country for financial mismanagement – ¥7.37 billion or about $60 million.

November 18, 2015 by Ted Leave a Comment

Auro-3D Intro SlideAt last month’s CEDIA Expo, we had the opportunity to meet Wilfried Van Baelen, the rather energetic, almost evangelistic, inventor of Auro-3D immersive surround sound technology.

And he scoffed at the Dolby Atmos and DTS:X versions which miss the mark in several important ways, he tells us.
