JVC, Sensio team up on high-end consumer 3D projection system


Far from being the first (or second, or third) partnership aimed at getting 3D in the home, JVC and Sensio have jointly chosen EHX Fall 2008 to announce their loving new union. By joining forces, they're purporting to introduce the "very first high-end 3D solution available on the consumer market." Granted, this so-called solution won't be cheap nor simple, as it will require a pair of JVC's costly D-ILA projectors and a media server integrating Sensio's 3D decoding technology. At the show, the pair demonstrated the forthcoming system by utilizing two $9,000 (yes, each) DLA-RS2 beamers (pictured), though it's never stated whether or not any gaudy goggles are required for visualizing the third-dimension. At any rate, the kit won't be available until sometime in 2009, but it's quite possible we'll get a sneak peek at CES in January.

Sunfire kicks out HRS satellite speakers to complement subwoofer

If you've fallen head over heels in love with your HRS subwoofer, Sunfire's looking to help you round out your surround system with satellites to match. Announced this week at EHX in Orlando, the company is bringing the $450 HRS Sat-4 and $500 HRS-SAT4C Center to market. As expected, each of the glossy black speakers will tout a curved design, cast aluminum front baffle, a 4.5-inch High Back-emf woofer (two for the Center in a D'Appolito configuration) and a 1-inch silk-dome tweeter. Additionally, each speaker can handle 200-watts of RMS power, and if these things deliver half the delight of HRS subbies, we'd say Sunfire has a couple more winners on its hands here.

ATON shows off Storm Series speakers, DLA technology at EHX


VUDU's announcement to team up with a number of big names in the home automation biz isn't the only news coming out of Orlando this week, as ATON is also down at EHX showcasing its Storm Series speakers and DLA Speaker Level Audio Routers. The former, which consists of 19 new speakers including ceiling, in-wall, theater and outdoor models, began shipping out late last month. Essentially, ATON's hoping to provide a wide array of choices in order to deliver whole-home audio solutions for customers willing to fork out anywhere between $139 and $479 per driver. Moving on, we've got the outfit's Dynamic Level Adjustment technology, which is being utilized in its newest audio routers ($299 to $499) designed to efficiently deliver and control audio throughout a home / building. Heck, the company is even coming out with in-wall Touchpads that will enable guests in any nook or cranny to control what's happening in their area. Click on through for the full release.

Control4 intros new line of in-wall / in-ceiling speakers at EHX

Although Control4 is best known for its home automation kit, the firm is using the spotlight at EHX to show off a new line of multi-room speakers. The 6.5- and 8-inch In-Ceiling and In-Wall Speakers (and In-Ceiling Stereo Speakers) all sport a two-way design, and they'll all play nice with the outfit's Wi-Fi Speaker Point, too. As for the drivers, they feature dual polymer cones, silk dome (pivoting) tweeters and rubber surrounds; hit up your dealer this summer if you're down with paying between $199 and $399 per pair.
