This picture shows the original Kinopanorama front speakers (the ones with large wings similar to the older Altec) and, between them, the newer STS (Système Ténor de Sonorisation) installation made of Ténor speakers designed by French engineer Pierre Vincent in the late eighties. Ténor speakers guaranteed a uniformly multidirectional sound more suitable to a volume such as the Kino auditorium, as opposed to speakers used in THX-certified installations for example, where the specifications are for coverage angles of 90° horizontally by 40° vertically.
