Walker Audio, Inc., manufacturers of the world-renowned Proscenium Black Diamond III turntable and other high-end audio products, has announced the release of the Eliminator Directional Antennae.  The new antennae improves systems by cleaning up electromagnetic and radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI) and stray electrical noise in the room and channeling them to the system ground at the negative speaker terminal in the user’s amplifier.

“Like our entire line of high-quality accessories, the Eliminator can improve anyone’s home theater or stereo system almost immediately,” says Lloyd Walker, President and Founder of Walker Audio.  “EMI, RFI and other noise can affect the transmission of the audio and video signal through the system.  There is a degradation of the data that is supposed to be there and the addition of signal that is not supposed to be there.  This means that your system is not accurately reproducing your LPs, CDs, and DVDs and it will not look and sound as good as it should. Adding the Eliminator will help you get rid of a problem you probably didn’t even know you had.”

The Eliminator is a pair of high-speed directional antennae made of pure silver wire with pure silver spades at one end of each wire.  The wire has been tested for directionality and treated cryogenically with a deep immersion process.  By attaching the spade ends to the negative binding posts of an amplifier, users will hear a difference in as little as 30 minutes and will have 90% break-in in 20 hours.

In addition to the Eliminator, Walker Audio also makes products to eradicate the negative effects of dirt, electrical noise, vibrations, static electricity, and other factors that impede and alter the pure audio or video signal. The accessories help reveal the true potential of LPs, CDs, DVDs and BluRay disks regardless of the level of the users system.

About Walker Audio:

Our products enhance the listening and viewing experience for customers with all levels of systems: analog, digital and video.  We specialize in high-end audio components and audio and video accessories. No expense or effort is spared to create the best products possible. We believe that not only is our flagship Proscenium Black Diamond III turntable the finest in the world, but that our other products are also world-class.

The one kilowatt, single rack unit Class D mono power amplifier outperforms its class with sophisticated monitoring circuits that maintain proper frequency response, even when powering the heaviest speaker loads using a 120V line.

Toronto, ON – November 14, 2011 – Anthem, the leading manufacturer of high-end electronics for music, home theater and distributed audio systems, is now shipping the Anthem Statement M1.  Anthem’s game-changing monaural powerhouse annihilates conventional audiophile wisdom about Class D amplification with flawless fidelity and full dynamic range across all volume levels, flat frequency response and rock-solid stability into even the most difficult loads, no “dead time” crossover distortion, and virtually no noise floor.

What’s more, the M1 makes such radical improvements over previous Class D amplifier designs while still maintaining all of the benefits that Class D design brings to the table. Class D architecture provides tremendous value over traditional Class A and Class AB designs because of its efficient output and smaller form factor, both of which the M1 perfectly embodies. Its heat pipe cooling system and deep side-mounted heat sinks allow multiple M1s, with feet removed, to be rack-mounted directly on one another, each occupying only a single rack unit. Its fanless design also makes the M1 as well-suited for the quietest of listening rooms as it is the most crowded equipment closets.

“The Anthem design team conceptualized the M1 almost 10 years ago, illustrating just how much in-house design and engineering went into producing this amplifier,” said Mark Aling, director of marketing for Anthem. “More than just a slim, technologically advanced monaural, the M1 demonstrates that Class D architecture isn’t fundamentally flawed, it merely hasn’t been implemented well in the past, mainly because it required such a heavy commitment to R&D. We’re fortunate to have the resources necessary to create such a groundbreaking product and strongly believe our customers will appreciate the effort.”

Don’t be confused by the “D” in “Class D”—the Statement M1 is not a digital amplifier. It boasts all the warmth and clarity of a traditional amp, in addition to a temporal resolution more than 80 times that of the audiophile-favorite SACD format, and does so with an astounding amount of power. While Anthem’s own award-winning Statement P5, for example, outputs 500 watts with a 4-ohm load, the M1 delivers 2,000 watts to the same speaker, with total harmonic distortion remaining under 0.1% from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. (Into 8 ohms, it delivers 1000 watts with a less than 0.06% total harmonic distortion.)  And frequency response is load-independent, so the difference in response between a 2-ohm load and an open circuit is an astounding 0.1 dB at 20 kHz. Between 4 ohms and 8 ohms there is absolutely no change in frequency response.

The Statement M1 attains this level of power, performance, and consistency through the employment of a few key technologies, including a proprietary load monitoring system that relies on a Digital Signal Processor—outside the signal path!—to monitor line voltage, output current, ground fault detection, temperature, and DC voltage at the output to ensure the highest possible output from either a 120V or 240V circuit. Power Factor Correction maximizes available power by marrying the voltage and current cycles, enabling continuous output from the power supply through the entire AC cycle without contaminating the AC line with noise.

While all of this innovation adds up to an amplifier that is admittedly not inexpensive, the Anthem Statement M1 nonetheless represents an unparalleled value in terms of price versus performance, with ample headroom to drive even the most power-hungry speakers, and the utmost in clarity and focus demanded by the most discerning listeners.

The Anthem Statement M1 is shipping now, with a US MRSP of $3499. More information on Anthem can be found at www.anthemAV.com.

The latest A/V streaming kit wirelessly transmits 1080p HD / 3D video content and 5.1 digital audio up to 100 feet, through standard walls.

Foothill Ranch, Calif. – November 9, 2011 – IOGEAR, a leader in convergence through connectivity products, announces the Wireless 3D Digital Kit (GW3DHDKIT), which reduces cable clutter and provides flexible and reliable 1080p HD and 3D wireless streaming for up to two rooms. Relying on the 5GHz wireless spectrum, the Wireless 3D Digital Kit does not require a line-of-sight placement, and delivers uncompressed full 1080p, 3D content and 5.1 digital audio up to 100 feet (figure assumes ideal wireless conditions).

The IOGEAR Wireless 3D Digital Kit consists of a transmitter and receiver with connections that allow it to stream standard, HD or 3D resolution content from up to two HDMI® enabled devices. Included with the kit are an IR blast cable, a remote control, and two power adapters. To add a second room, one HDTV can connect directly to the transmitter’s loop-through (local) port, while a second HDTV simultaneously receives content via the wireless receiver.  A “Floating HDTV” can be set up by connecting two HD or 3D media sources to the wireless transmitter while a wall-mounted TV receives content from the connected wireless receiver.

The Wireless 3D Digital Kit is housed in a sleek black casing with rounded edges, giving it a modern but understated appearance. The unobtrusive transmitter, receiver, IR blast cable and remote control underscore just what a powerful device the Wireless 3D Digital Kit really is. Streaming high-bandwidth 3D and 1080p content up to 100 feet is made possible by the use of 5GHz technology, which is generally less susceptible to network interference and can carry more data than its 2.4 GHz relative.

By supporting devices such as 3D Blu-ray and DVD players, DVR/set-top boxes and game consoles, the Wireless 3D Digital Kit allows users to keep their components neatly out-of-sight and keep the focus on their celebrated HD or 3D TVs. Perfect as a DIY retrofit solution, the built-in Infrared (IR) pass-though allows user control over source devices that are hidden away in a different location. Additionally, the GW3DHDKIT is HDCP 2.0 Compliant and requires no software or driver installation.

“Our Wireless 3D Digital Kit advances the technology of streaming A/V content and is a perfect fit for those who already have a 3D display or are planning to get one,” said Bill Nguyen, Senior Marketing Manager for IOGEAR. “The GW3DHDKIT offers an easy, affordable way to stream both HD and 3D entertainment discretely with multiple retrofit and installation options.”

For its initial launch, the Wireless 3D Digital Kit will be available online at Costco.com. A nationwide roll-out that includes shopIOGEAR.com, brick and mortar retailers and online resellers will happen in later in Q4 2011. MSRP of the Wireless 3D Digital Kit is $379.95.

Ideal for when ceiling mounting is not possible or the ceiling height is too high; the Projector Hinge Mechanism from Future Automation offers an in-wall solution.

Kimpton, Hertfordshire, UK – October 6, 2011 – Future Automation, a market leader in flat screen mounting solutions and high-tech automated lifts, is proud to announce the availability of its Projector Hinge Mechanism, offering integrators a superior option when concealing projection systems in the home. Installed within the wall, this unique product is an ideal solution for homes where there is inefficient space in a ceiling for a projector, or in a home with high ceilings where the projector needs to be dropped a substantial amount. Also suited for smaller spaces such as yachts or condominiums, the Projector Hinge opens a world of opportunities when installing a projection system.

Future Automation has developed the Projector Hinge Mechanism to provide a unique solution to a growing problem in projection installations. As projection technology continues to evolve, more and more homeowners are opting to include projection in other areas of the home and integrators are faced with the challenges of installing projectors into rooms with more architectural features. The Projector Hinge allows the projector to be installed inside the wall, combating space issues in homes with high ceilings or limited ceiling space.  When installed in the wall, the Projector Hinge simply folds downward from the wall, into a level position, and just like that is ready for your viewing pleasure.

“More and more projectors are being installed into spaces other than a dedicated theater, but because these rooms weren’t built with a projector specifically in mind, properly concealing it while still maintaining the design integrity of the room becomes difficult,” said Ollie French VP of Future Automation. “With the Projector Hinge product, we’re opening up more possibilities for integrators to install projection systems with a product that won’t interfere with their homes’ design.”

Superbly depth efficient and functional, the Projector Hinge comes in a variety of standard sizes to fit the vast majority of home theater projectors, and is the perfect way to transform any living space into a home theater. An aluminum mounting grid ensures the projector won’t move when transitioning from the wall to the “in use” position, guaranteeing the projector will remain at your perfect viewing preference day in and day out. The Projector Hinge is complete with an enclosed backbox, creating a clean, finished look while the projector is in use and a full internal cable management system ensures cables are never seen. When in the closed position, the Projector Hinge can be customized to suite each homeowners personal décor, offering a discrete look and finish. Like all Future Automation products, the Projector Hinge is able to work with any third party home automation system.
