Adherence to Digital Cinema Initiative specifications enables Quantum’s LED Video Wall to access exclusive content from the Bel Air Circuit.
Denver, Colorado (September 8, 2023) — From its inception, the XDR3 LED Video Wall from Quantum Media Systems was designed and engineered exclusively for high-end home cinemas. Technologies incorporated into the LED Video Wall enable it to optimize the types of content typically consumed in residential settings. Now, Quantum adds another compelling content choice—first-run movies available via the exclusive movie distribution service, the Bel Air Circuit.
Streaming of high-res digital content from the Bel Air Circuit is achieved through Quantum’s recent compliance with system requirements and specifications established by the Digital Cinema Initiative. DCI support and Bel Air Circuit integration further differentiate the XDR3 LED Video Wall from other large-format displays on the market, providing systems integrators yet another selling feature for their high-end clientele.
The XDR3 LED Video Wall enhances viewing enjoyment of exclusive Bel Air Circuit movies and other content through brightness up to 1000 nits, immersive image display technology with Fine-Pitch LED and high-performance image processing to produce a full, vibrant color spectrum and High Dynamic Range (HDR).
The XDR3 LED Video Wall requires just four inches of total build-out depth, which makes it look like a natural extension of the wall—an artistic expression rather than a random piece of technology. The low profile of the XDR3 LED Video Wall also saves space. Homeowners enjoy a big screen viewing experience without a large, loud video projector infringing on the room design for comfort of the audience. This space-saving attribute also enables greater freedom with seating arrangements.
Where to See Quantum Media Systems at CEDIA Expo 2023
CEDIA Expo attendees can see all the key differentiating features of the XDR3 LED Video Wall from Quantum Media Systems at an appointment-only demonstration in Room #207.

An exclusive preview of the all-new wall-mounted lighting and audio solution in one will be on display at CEDIA Expo 2023.
[Ann Arbor, MI] – September 5, 2023 – Leon and Calgary-based design firm Mera Studio Architects are thrilled to introduce an exclusive preview of the all-new Mera Sound Sconce at CEDIA Expo 2023.
A groundbreaking new approach to lighting and sound, the wall-mounted Mera Sound Sconce offers both full-range audio and a warm, comforting glow to elevate the sound, look, and feel of any space. Its artisan-inspired design is supported by Leon’s 33UX audio platform and integrates diffused, dimmable LED lighting seamlessly.
“Our idea for the Sound Sconce was to highlight and not hide the speaker—to think of it as an element in the room capable of transforming the user experience via sound and light,” says Mera Principal Architect Tara Marshall. “All too often, speakers are the last element considered in a space. We wanted to rethink the speaker and come up with a design that would shift the concept of the speaker from an afterthought to a forethought, and the duality of a speaker that can illuminate a room just seemed to make sense. Why not integrate sound where you might already install a light? From there, we set out with Leon’s team on the challenge of creating a speaker that was equally as beautiful as a light.”
“We’ve learned so much through our collaboration with Mera,” says Leon Founder and President Noah Kaplan. “Both of our organizations are committed to ending the disconnect between design and technology. Through our work with the Mera designers, we have gained a new perspective on modern architecture and the possibilities for the future of AV and technology—a future led by thoughtful, collaborative design.”
The new sconce collection comes in three finish options handpicked to represent Mera’s intentional, natural approach to color, material and texture—as well as Leon’s commitment to high-quality craftsmanship and style. The sconce at this year’s CEDIA Expo features a custom-knit bouclé grille fabric and coordinating textured powder-coat finish.
Leon expects to start shipping the new Mera Sound Sconce in Q1 of 2024.

[Ann Arbor, MI] – September 5, 2023 – Just as every picture deserves a frame, every TV deserves an Edge Frame from Leon. Unsightly plastic framing, visible cables, and bulky mounting equipment can lead to a wall-mounted TV that detracts from the style of a space. Leon’s popular Edge line of handcrafted hardwood frames are a simple and modern way to upgrade any TV for the design-conscious client—elevating the look of any and every display.
Available for both standalone TVs and TV-soundbar setups, Edge Frames are easy to install and built to fit the exact dimensions of any retrofit or new TV across both new builds and existing setup. Edge’s magnetic frame is easily removed and returned for service or maintenance, creating a seamless, built-in-look without the added cost and construction. Every Edge is handcrafted in the USA and available in a variety of Leon standard finishes, including hardwoods, with additional options for custom paint matching or designer grille fabrics.
“Our Edge series is one of our most popular solutions, and a testament to Leon’s commitment to simple, stylish ways of integrating technology with design” says Leon Speakers founder and president Noah Kaplan. “We believe that, as our technology continues to evolve, our approach to design must evolve alongside it. The Edge series is one of the easiest ways to intentionally bring an existing television into the look and feel of the space around it.”

LIT brings foundational power conditioning solutions from Torus Power platform to residential dealers in the Southeast and stresses the importance of clean power for optimal performance of smart home systems.
TORONTO, ON, CANADA (Sept. 4, 2023) Torus Power Inc. is pleased to announce that its full range of world-class isolation transformers is now available to residential dealers from Luxury Integrated Technologies (LIT).
