Cinemas boosted by FLEXOUND Augmented Audio™ are now operating on two continents. The technology enhances the cinema sound experience with high-quality personal sound and physical vibration in each individual seat. According to the market research 96% say FLEXOUND experience is very good or good, 91% recommend the FLEXOUND experience to others.
