NUVO TECHNOLOGIES DELIVERS UK-STYLE OLED CONTROL PAD FOR USE WITH ITS ESSENTIA E6G MULTI-ROOM AUDIO SYSTEM
This sleek new user touchpoint for NuVo’s groundbreaking energy-efficient multi-room audio system is both aesthetically and functionally pleasing.
CEDIA, London, UK– June 24, 2008 – NuVo Technologies’ Essentia E6G six-source, six-zone multi-room audio system is now available with a new UK-style keypad.
Users of Essentia E6G, the most energy-efficient multi-room audio system ever devised, can now enjoy an enticingly compact, feature-rich Control Pad, complete with one-inch OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) display. OLED provides high contrast and increased legibility in any light and at any angle. OLED also consumes less energy than traditional LCD or VFD displays.
The Control Pad screen features four lines of text in adjustable font
sizes for easy menu navigation and intelligent metadata delivery. Its unique
tactile buttons are surrounded by an attractive and durable polycarbonate
surface, and its coplanar Plexiglas keys fit flush against the sleek,
scratch-resistant material, resulting in a smooth, pristine finish. Not only
does this affordable Control Pad create a high-quality look and feel, but
it’s also water-resistant because of a rubber membrane layered beneath the
buttons.
Essentia E6G’s main amplification unit supplies 40 watts to each of six (12
with the system expander) zones. Philips Class D amplification, coupled with
the digital new state-of-the-art, switching power supply, keeps the system
running cool, offering protection from heat related equipment failure, which
is the primary cause of any system’s performance issues. The switch power
supply also keeps up with the Essentia E6G’s theme of efficiency. The
remarkably lightweight unit occupies only a single vertical rack space. All
of these features, in addition to the system’s unprecedented standby mode
energy efficiency, make the Essentia E6G quite unlike any other six-source,
six-zone multi-room audio system available.
Due to seamless compatibility with the latest NuVoNet protocol, Essentia E6G
communicates with all NuVo sources, such a tuners, music servers, iPod docks
and more. The new Essentia version of NuVo’s Allport hub consolidates all of
the system’s speaker connections. These benefits keep things simple and
clean, both for installation and end use.
Coming in at an astonishing price point of $2,499.00, retail, the Essentia
E6G upholds NuVo’s reputation for delivering great quality at a great value.
Essentia Control Pads also can be used with the NuVo Grand Concerto system.
They ship with trim-plates in four colors—white, almond, ivory and black.
