This past weekend had our team out in the East Bay, Piedmont to be exact.  We installed a sweet little birthday surprise for the lucky dad in this family!

We began by updating the receiver and adding a Rotel 6 channel distribution amp to power 3 zones.  We also added a Marantz 5 disc CD changer, the new CC-4003  and a Marantz IPod Docking Station to the electronics closet.

Then we finished by installing two pairs of B&W loudspeakers.  One pair of CCM-80 in-ceiling speakers and 1 pair of WM-6 weatherproof outdoor speakers tucked up under the eves.

It all sounded great, was easy for the entire family to use and came in under budget!  A good day for us all!

Rotel showed some new product this week at CEDIA Expo.

Two audio components that network with home PCs and stream Internet radio. Both also control media on a connected iPod or other USB device.

The RDG-1520 digital Internet tuner, features FM tuner, streaming of 15,000 Internet radio stations without a networked PC, and streaming of music stored on a networked PC equipped with UPnP and Windows Media Player 11. This product is slated to sell for $999.00

The digital Internet tuner, includes a USB input for direct digital connection of an iPod ,  bypassing the iPod’s analog-output stage to shift digital-to-analog conversion over to the tuner’s high-end Wolfson DAC and analog stage.

Secondly, a streaming product, called the RCX-1500. It is a streaming media/CD/FM stereo receiver, In addition to being a fine stereo receiver with built-in CD player,  it features the  ability to stream Internet radio and music stored on a networked PC. It’s due in November at a suggested retail of $1,500.

The device’s CD section uses 24 bit/192kHz DACs, and a very capable 2×100-watt amp section ready for the demands of a 4 ohm load.

Both products’ supported RealAudio, WMA, MP3, unprotected AAC & AAC+, AU, WAV and AIFF.

In other introductions, the company showed its 12×100-watt (into 8 ohms) Class D multi-room-audio amplifier, the $2,799-suggested retail.  This amp should be a great addition to the line and further enhance the sound quality of many a multi-room system.
