In–Wall powered subwoofer

Posted on September 5th, 2006 in whole-house audio by Erno, (Visited 76859 times)

sub 250 In–Wall powered subwoofer250-watt amplifier & powered subwoofer reside in your wall to boost bass from stereo and home theater devices. The subwoofers’ amplifier turns on and off automatically when it senses audio signals from connected A/V components. With the included mounting bracket it is expandable to adjust to any installation

Enjoying room-filling, thundering bass from your home theater and stereo doesn’t require installing a large, bulky subwoofer. The BassX W10 in-wall 250-Watt powered subwoofer remains completely recessed in the wall behind a flush-mounted grille, and the included 250-watt remote amplifier turns on and off automatically by sensing audio signals coming from your receiver or pre-amp through the input connections, so you don’t need to add another step to your movie-viewing or music-listening process.

Just stumbeled on a new European website that

“explains the features of a Smart-Home in plain English”

smarthome High Tech Home Magazine

This is a great website because there aren’t enough online resources for the domotics or home-automation industry and especially aimed at consumers. (most resources are trade type ones like hiddenwires etc).

….except of course for this weblog ;-)

Feel free to check it out, it even has RSS and a forum.

Roku SoundBridge M1000

Posted on February 27th, 2006 in Roku, whole-house audio by Erno, (Visited 12743 times)

roku SB1 homepage both Roku SoundBridge M1000

In the wireless network music player market, Roku’s SoundBridge M1000 ($199.99) stands out. Released by Roku in 2003, the M1000 is the last remaining network music player in what used to be a three-model line.

Roku Soundbridge M1000
The M1000 is a lightweight aluminum cylindrical unit with a modern industrial look to its design. It has a Vacuum Florescent Display that is easy to read, and it comes with a small base mount and remote control. Its settings are saved when unplugged, so users can move it from bedroom to kitchen to living room to backyard as needed.

The remote control is ergonomically designed, comfortable to hold, and not overlarge, but many of its buttons are not intuitive. Users will likely need to spend some time experimenting or reading the manual to fully put it to use. Since it’s the only way to interact with the device, this is definitely worth doing.

The M1000 streams music from your PC (or Mac)—or radio direct from the Internet—over 802.11b/g networks; it also has an Ethernet (10/100 RJ-45) port for wired networks. The M1000 is only a music player, it doesn’t have any storage capacity of its own.

To access stored music, it requires access to a music server, which most users will already have installed on their systems. SoundBridge is compatible with Windows Media Connect, iTunes, Rhapsody, Musicmatch Jukebox, and SlimServer, for example.

SoundBridge plugs directly into powered speakers by 1/8” cable, or to a stereo system’s Aux (or other Line Input port) using RCA (red/white) audio cables, which are included. (SoundBridge also has coaxial or optical SPDIF digital connectors, but cables are not included.)

Once the unit and the speakers are powered on, SoundBridge will automatically search for a Wi-Fi network. If it finds only one and if that network has no security keys set, it will automatically connect to the PC with the server software installed. If it detects more than one network, users are prompted to enter the correct SSID.
