“The Watershed Group’s blueprint approach to building home cinemas provides Canadian installers an opportunity to offer customers the right Kaleidescape solution, and ensure the environment allows for the best playback experience,” explains Tayloe Stansbury, Kaleidescape’s chief executive officer. “The Kaleidescape system, designed to play 4K HDR movies with a video bitrate four times higher and lossless audio up to ten times higher than any streaming device, is the clear choice in powering best-in-class home cinemas.”

The Watershed Group is committed to supporting its independent customer base in the design and implementation of home cinema with the best brands and technology the market has to offer. Custom installers in Canada can now rely on The Watershed Group to provide Kaleidescape’s premium solution offerings.

“We have always partnered with brands and technologies that enable our group to best support our independent customer base and their specific needs for product performance, reliability, and profitability,” added Steve Davidson, managing director for The Watershed Group. “Our relationship with Kaleidescape will continue this tradition. Entrusting us with the Kaleidescape family not only humbles us but allows us to strategically invest the resources necessary to position the brand for the success it so duly deserves.”

Kaleidescape’s Canada movie store has one of the largest collections of 4K titles with lossless Atmos audio. The store boasts over 8,000 titles for purchase and more than 4,000 for rent. In addition to offering an expansive catalog of films, concerts, and TV series, Kaleidescape prioritizes quality and ease by automating playback settings and curating instant scene access.

With Kaleidescape’s research and development based in Waterloo, Ontario, the company has strong ties to the University of Waterloo. Kaleidescape offers internship programs and employs many of the university’s graduates as engineers. Together, Kaleidescape and The Watershed Group will bring a better, more streamlined experience to custom installers in Canada.
