HOLOPHONIX was born in the heart of the performing arts world.
Since the early 1990s, Amadeus has partnered with some of the most prestigious theaters and opera houses – delivering sound systems renowned for their precision, warmth, and architectural adaptability.
Building on this legacy, HOLOPHONIX introduces a new paradigm for spatial audio in live performance – empowering directors, composers, and sound engineers with real-time immersive control.
The technology has been adopted by leading institutions such as the Comédie-Française, Paris Opera, Lyon Opera, Rennes Opera, Chaillot National Theatre, La Scala, the Avignon Festival, and the Aix-en-Provence Festival – among hundreds of others across Europe and beyond.
From symphonic halls to experimental stages, HOLOPHONIX enhances localization, clarity, depth, acoustics, and expressiveness – reshaping the live experience for artists and audiences alike.
HOLOPHONIX is redefining how sound is experienced in art and public spaces – transforming exhibitions, heritage sites, and installations into spatially enriched, emotionally resonant environments.
From real-time trajectories to generative motion models, the system offers unmatched creative freedom for artists and scenographers working at the intersection of sound, space, and storytelling.
It powers major works such as Pascal Dusapin and Anselm Kiefer’s monumental installation at the Panthéon in Paris – the monument’s first public sound commission in nearly a century – as well as Bob Wilson’s immersive performance at the Sainte-Chapelle, and dozens of large-scale sound-led pieces each year at the world-renowned Venice Biennale.
With seamless integration into interactive media, kinetic systems, and high-density speaker arrays, HOLOPHONIX enables creators to sculpt living sonic environments – giving sound a spatial body that evolves across architecture, motion, and time. It transforms spaces into sensory experiences that invite immersion, reflection, and wonder.
HOLOPHONIX is at the forefront of a new approach to wellness and hospitality – where spatial sound is used as a tool for calm, reconnection, and sensorial depth.
Designed for environments focused on care, rest, or self-exploration, the system enables highly immersive soundscapes that adapt to space, time, and intention.
HOLOPHONIX also powers the acoustic core of Elusis – an innovative capsule designed for therapeutic and meditative sound immersion. Engineered in partnership with neuroscientists, audio specialists, and wellness practitioners, Elusis combines high-resolution audio, spatial rendering, and ergonomic architecture to promote rest, cognitive reset, and altered states of consciousness. The system is deployable in spas, hotels, clinics, and retreats.
With HOLOPHONIX, sound becomes a restorative dimension – seamlessly embedded into environments that care for both body and mind.
HOLOPHONIX redefines the way spatial audio is integrated into architecture, luxury hospitality, and brand experience. From historic châteaux to corporate innovation hubs, the system creates immersive environments where sound becomes a medium for narrative, emotion, and identity.
At the Domaine des Étangs – the largest luxury resort in France – a 44-loudspeaker system powered by HOLOPHONIX transforms La Laiterie, a restored 18th-century barn, into an acoustically adaptive cultural gallery. Designed to host concerts, exhibitions, and sound installations, the venue blends natural architecture with cutting-edge sonic design.
In Reims, at the historic Krug Champagne House, HOLOPHONIX drives an immersive ‘audio tasting room’ developed in collaboration with IRCAM and architecture studio AW². The experience translates the taste of Champagne into spatial soundscapes, using custom-built loudspeakers – including COR-TEN steel designs – to sonify the flavor profiles of base wines. The system allows visitors to ‘taste sound’ in a pioneering fusion of science, luxury, and multisensory design.

HOLOPHONIX is trusted by leading universities, research centers, and conservatories worldwide as a reference tool for exploring spatial sound in both scientific and artistic fields. Its modular architecture, open protocol support, and real-time 3D rendering engine make it ideal for education, experimentation, and prototyping.
The system is used across disciplines, from electroacoustic composition and immersive media to acoustics, architecture, and cognitive science. Students and researchers engage hands-on with spatialization algorithms, multichannel workflows, reverberation models, and perceptual studies.
At ETH Zurich, HOLOPHONIX is deployed in the Immersive Design Lab (IDL), a pioneering facility for architecture and computational design. The lab features a 75-loudspeaker spatial audio system integrated into a circular arena for research, teaching, and interactive presentations. It supports cross-disciplinary experimentation in XR, AI, and auralization at the highest level.
Other users include IRCAM, CNRS (French National Centre for Scientific Research), EM Lyon Business School, Tsinghua University in China, the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts (HKAPA), and the Asia Culture Center in South Korea, among many others.
From multichannel studios to flexible teaching labs, HOLOPHONIX fosters the next generation of engineers, artists, and scientists working with immersive sound.
