1. High quality sound and image, allowing you to feel the effect of presence when watching sports programs.
2. Users can, at their discretion, adjust the volume and clarity of the image using the remote control without leaving their chair.
3. Sound reproduction directly depends on the size of the room, its acoustics, a special refinement of the wall covering allows you to enhance special effects and achieve the effect of presence in the frame.

There are, of course, disadvantages: for example, not every user can correctly configure complex equipment - a qualified specialist is needed for this, only after a qualified setup by an experienced wizard the system will work flawlessly, without negative failures.
