Wireless Speakers Do Double Duty with PCs, CD and MP3 Players
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- 2005 International CES, South Hall 2
#25427 -- Take a high-performance DVD receiver with a built-in AM/FM tuner,
add a 7.1 speaker kit with wireless rear speakers that support multiple audio
devices, and you get the Pixa DVW-200 Easy Theater 7.1 -- a new multipurpose
DVD home theater system from Pixa, Inc., that eliminates the need to buy
separate speakers for your PC, CD or MP3 player.
The speaker package includes a 5.1-channel, 200-watt Dolby Digital/dts
surround sound system consisting of four wired speakers and a subwoofer, plus
two 2.4 GHz wireless rear speakers integrated into a single cabinet for easy
room placement. Each wireless speaker is positioned at a 45-degree angle in
the cabinet and utilizes Dynamic Refraction Surround Sound (DRSS) technology
enabling audio to bounce off the wall and back to the listener for a surround
sound effect.
In addition to bringing surround sound to DVD movies, the wireless
speakers can be used as a digital boom box that can move from sound source to
sound source and room to room without disconnecting and reconnecting cables.
The wireless speakers can:
-- Deliver CD, AM/FM or burned MP3 audio from the system's DVD receiver;
-- Broadcast music from a CD or MP3 player via a wireless transmitter
included with the package that plugs into the DVD player's 3.5mm stereo
jack;
-- Transmit stored music or Internet radio from a PC via a USB-based
wireless transmitter that can be purchased separately; or
-- Beam music into the backyard, basement, garage or any room in the
house.
The same transmitters can also send DVD, CD, MP3 or PC-based audio to
wireless headphones that are available as an add-on accessory.
The DVW-200 supports DVD, VCD, DVCD, MP3, JPEG and picture CD-RW files,
progressive scan DVD playback for super-sharp picture quality, and multi-view
angle and multi-language/multi-subtitle for DVDs. The built-in AM/FM tuner is
capable of saving up to 20 stations.
The system comes with a remote control and standard component Y/Cr/CB,
S-Video and composite video connectors for hooking up to the television.
