HDMI 2.1 inputs and outputs

The Trinnov Altitude 16 HDMI 2.1 is a high-performance AV processor designed for dedicated home cinemas and premium media rooms. Combining sophisticated immersive audio processing with Trinnov's renowned Optimizer technology, it provides exceptional flexibility and control for carefully designed multichannel sound systems.

Built around Trinnov's powerful software-based processing platform, the Altitude 16 supports up to 20 discrete audio channels, including Dolby Atmos, DTS Pro and Auro-3D. Its 16 balanced analogue outputs provide extensive connectivity, while the optional +4 channel configuration allows the system to expand further, making it suitable for ambitious speaker layouts and more complex cinema installations.

At the heart of the Altitude 16 is Trinnov's Optimizer, an advanced loudspeaker and room calibration system that uses a dedicated 3D measurement microphone to analyse speaker positions and acoustic performance. It helps optimise timing, phase, levels and frequency response, while Trinnov's unique Remapping technology can compensate for certain speaker placement limitations. The result is a carefully calibrated system designed to deliver precise imaging, cohesive surround effects and controlled bass performance.

The HDMI 2.1 platform provides eight inputs and two outputs, supporting video resolutions up to 8K/60Hz and 4K/120Hz, with 40Gbps bandwidth across the inputs and outputs. Support for Dolby Vision, HDR10+, HDR10 and HLG ensures compatibility with a wide range of modern video sources and displays.

Designed for integration into professionally installed home cinemas, the Altitude 16 features balanced XLR audio outputs, extensive digital connectivity and IP and RS-232 control options. It can also be integrated into Control4 installations, allowing the cinema system to operate as part of a wider smart home environment.

The Trinnov Optimizer

At the heart of every Trinnov Altitude processor is the renowned Trinnov Optimizer, an advanced loudspeaker and room calibration system designed to extract the best possible performance from your home cinema.

Using a dedicated three-dimensional measurement microphone, the Optimizer analyses the position, timing and acoustic response of each loudspeaker within the room. Its sophisticated processing then helps refine levels, phase, delay and frequency response, creating a more cohesive and accurately integrated soundstage. Trinnov's unique Remapping technology takes this further by compensating for certain deviations from ideal loudspeaker positioning, helping maintain accurate spatial reproduction when room design or architectural constraints limit speaker placement.

With advanced bass management and support for complex multi-subwoofer configurations, the Optimizer provides the tools to carefully calibrate even the most ambitious home cinema systems.
