Two individual tip-up seats from Brockley Upholstery add that real cinema feel.
JOHN CLANCY CINEMA 2 - Equipment used: elmo GS-1200 Super 8 projector, ASK semi-professional video projector. Sound system: Marantz Dolby Stereo processor + a bank of Marantz PM30/32 amplifiers, Wharfedale Modus 7 main and centre speakers, Mordaunt Short active subwoofer, JBL Control1G satellites and StarLite satellites. Super 8 can again utilize Keith Wilton's pulse 'sync (and regularly does!) but this time decoding of the video signal is activated via Cresta VS2000 box. The screen is approximately 7ft wide and tabs and motorized masking are controlled by X10 radio control which can set to all screen ratios. Three rows of tip-up seats seating nine patrons. The last two pictures in the next block show the masking motors and the simple roller blind mechanism used to move the top and bottom masking - one cord rolls over the blind one way the other the opposite way: result is when one moves up the other moves down. Amazing what can be achieved with a bit of string and sticky tape!
