Horizontal or vertical: the best THX front loudspeaker of its class
Never before in the history of THX®: Despite the strict requirements regarding dispersion characteristics, the LCR 100-THX was granted the coveted THX Ultra2™ certification for both horizontal and upright operation. Two 17 cm subwoofers as well as the large tweeter cone ensure distortion-free levels up to beyond 110 decibels as well as outstanding purity of sound. The 42 mm tweeter cone runs in an optimally linear way from 1,500 – 27,500 hertz thanks to the installed horn (Waveguide) and sound distribution lens. This helps the LCR 100-THX to achieve a level of efficiency far in excess of 90 decibels. In other words: Even smaller AV receivers make it possible to experience a great cinema feeling with Cinema Ultra. The enclosure of the LCR 100-THX is flat and is perfectly suitable for unobtrusive wall mounting via wall brackets and VESA fittings.

Test review (audiovision, 04/2016)
"Hard to think of a better all-rounder. Great!"
+ Sensational macro and micro-dynamics
+ Vivid sound stage
+ Subwoofer with good level stability and depth
Conclusion: Great dynamics, but with feeling
"With the Magnat Cinema Ultra, the developers have created a loudspeaker set that is fun in the truest sende of the word. The concept and finish are consistent and coherent, from the well thought-out details like the VESA brackets to the add-on speaker that can serve as a Dolby Atmos enabled speaker and be switched over for wall or ceiling use. The front and dipole speakers play together in an amazingly harmonious way and reproduce acoustic events consistently throughout the room and beyond. The exceptionally powerful subwoofer also enables the set to not only play in an airily detached way with good microdynamics; it can also pack a powerful punch, easily reaching cinema or live concert level even in large rooms. Hard to think of a better all-rounder. Great! "

Test result: Very good
Price/Performance: Outstanding
Conclusion
"Saving on looks, which don’t really count anyway, and showing off with the special effects and the balanced, differentiated fine-tuning of the sound quality. Andadded to that: micro and macro-dynamics in abundance – incredible. Incidentally, Magnat also makes music almost as crisp as a small PA."

+ THX Ultra 2 Licence
+ Option Dolby Atmos speakers
+ Extremely powerful subwoofer
Conclusion
"Magnat has landed a very big hit with the new Cinema Ultra Set. This surround sound set plays at the very hightest level and lends wings to any movie. With huge dynamics and crystal-clear, undistorted reproduction, the Cinema Ultra Set is extremely enjoyable, can be operated in various constellations and can be supplemented for Dolby Atmos. It has also been awarded the seal of approval from the movie sound authority, THX, in the form of a THX Ultra 2 licence, so there's nothing to stand in the way of a perfect home cinema sound.
