For years consumers have searched for ways to enjoy
the experience of a home theater surround sound system without the hassle of
running wires to the back of their room. Up until now, the only choices were
low-quality systems consisting of sub-par speakers, weak amplifiers, and noisy,
interference-prone, wireless transmissions. Now, says Malone, all of that is
about to change.
AR’s new WHT6024 Wireless Home Theater System is an
audiophile’s dream. The subwoofer is a high output 10-inch, 125-watt amplifier
designed to deliver the full impact of any performance. The wireless system
employs highly-advanced digital spread spectrum 2.4 GHz circuitry with a Quality
of Service (QOS) channel that continuously and seamlessly avoids any potential
interference.
“This system,” says Malone, “is ideal for operating in
classic hostile environments such as cordless phones, 802.11 computer networks
and the dreaded microwave oven. And the sound quality is outstanding, thanks to
a superior wireless design that delivers uncompressed, 20Hz to 20KHz,
wide-separation “CD” performance. To top it off, AR has designed a no-nonsense,
50-watt RMS power amplifier into each rear channel, delivering the true impact
that is essential to a serious home theater system. And the best news of
all…it’s easy for the average consumer to install! Just plug in the transceiver,
connect it to the rear speaker outputs of your home theater receiver, plug the
rear channels into any nearby outlet, and you are done.”
The AR WHT6024
is the first home theater wireless system to offer true high-quality audio
speakers, and a reliable, interference-free “CD” quality, wireless solution. The
system will be available staring in April 2007 with an MSRP of $799.
