| The Newest from JM Lab: The Profile 900 |
The new Profile 900 line originates from a complete and thoughtful study on loudspeaker technology where performance, integration and design are thoroughly combined.
The soft and fluid design express Focal technology and emphasizes on functionality while making it in the meantime, better integrated to the interior environment. But firstly beyond design, Profile 900 must meet its acoustical objective. A state of the art bended, multi-fold MDF cabinet solution has been chosen, assuring natural toughness as well as optimal damping of vibrations and internal pressures. |

| Anthem Statement D1 Controller and P5 Power Amplifier |
To say, as Anthem does in it's literature, that the Statement D1 and P5 can 'Recreate the passion a music lover experiences when attending a live musical performance, or the thrilling sound a movie buff experiences in the very best movie theaters" is an understatement. The Anthem Statement D1 preamp/processor/tuner and P5 mulitchannel power amplifier are the best home-theater components I have heard in my system, and it was a joy to review them.
The P5's specs are impeccable. It outputs 325 watts per channel, one or all channels driven. Harmonic distortion is spec'ed at almost immeasurable 0.0007%, and inter modulation distortion is said to be 0.00019%. Damping factor, a good measure of a speaker control, is 600, and the slew rate (a specification of amp speed) is 40 V/ps. The signal to noise ration is 125 db, and the crosstalk between any two channels is an incredible -140 dB. Anthem claims power bandwidth from 10 Hz to 150 kHz. But specs are only on paper - the most important spec, how it sounds, is measured by listening. |

Premium Loudspeaker specialist Focal has developed a new concept to allow Apple iPod and hard drive juke box users, plus WiFi and Apple/PC/server music fans, an easy way to convert their products into the heart of a true 2.1 hi-fi system - the iCub integrated subwoofer. |
Premium Loudspeaker specialist Focal has developed a new concept to allow iPod and hard drive juke box users, plus WiFi and PC/server music fans, an easy way to convert their products into the heart of a true 2.1 hi-fi system - the iCub integrated subwoofer.
iCub presents a unique opportunity to allow this new audience to really access true high-fidelity, via a modern product in tune with their life style. Based on the specifications of the recently introduced Cub2 subwoofer, iCub integrates 3 BASH amplifiers, with a maximum of 400 Watts, a high precision 20bit D/A converter and multiple inputs, including optical digital, all with automatic detection so there's no need to manually turn iCub on or off.
The iCub system is incredibly simple to configure and use. A pair of speakers can be connected directly to the outputs on the iCub's stereo amplifier. Sources can be connected either via analogue RCA or digitally via the optical input and the system volume can be controlled by the included infra-red remote control.
Thanks to the optical input, and other unique functionality, iCub also offers new prospects for greatly improved music quality when streaming using a WiFi connection and a computer. |
| Azur 540R 6.1 Audio Video Receiver |
We just got in the new Cambridge Audio "Azur 540 R" Dolby Digital surround sound receiver. WOW were we surprised!!! This
receiver performs like receivers costing 3 times the price. This is a great sounding, powerful, simple to use product. The remote
control is one of the easiest to use that we've seen, you can directly select the surround mode, adjust the bass, treble, even the sub
woofer!!! This receiver puts out a beefy 80 watts per channel, with all of the 6 channels driven (Most manufacturers rate the
power with 1 or 2 channels driven only, to inflate the apparent power ratings for advertising purposes), and has incredible sound
quality even with the most complex musical passages. We have been selling the Cambridge Audio products for over 10 years,
and they are not only a great performing product, but reliable, and affordable. This receiver sells for $699.00! We have tested
other products at $1500.00 that didn't perform any better.

| Arcam SOLO |
On January 7th, Arcam launched the new SOLO Music System at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. Those of you accustomed to thinking of "lifestyle" products as a compromise between performance and simplicity will be shocked. The SOLO is a true high-end audio system that just happens to be dressed in lifestyle clothing. Offering performance exceeding that of Arcam's entry level separate audio components, the SOLO amazed all that saw (and heard) it at CES.
Retailing at $1,599, the SOLO incorporates a CD player, FM tuner, Preamp, and Power Amp all in one attractively styled enclosure. In addition to all the performance you'd expect from an Arcam component, the Solo provides features like RS-232 control, four independent alarm clocks, and a separate line-level output with independent volume control for a second zone. Deliveries will begin in the U.S. in early February |
| Arcam DiVA DV79 DVD-Audio Player |
Arcam's newest player, and the first "affordable" player from a specialist manufacturer to offer an HDMI digital video output as well as high-resolution DVD-Audio. Includes RS-232 for interfacing with multi-room control systems. The DV79 is an affordable enthusiast level machine that delivers one of the best DVD pictures in the world and absolutely stunning sound quality. As Arcam uses its own bespoke designs and builds its own DVD players in the UK, the R&D team were able to achieve a remarkable price / performance ratio. |
| Arcam AVR300 Surround Sound Receiver |
The AVR300 Surround Sound Receiver represents another landmark project by Arcam in its quest to deliver products that provide discerning customers with home cinema solutions, which don't involve the compromises seen in many other products. Based on lessons learned during the development of the AV8 and P7, the AVR300 is the first surround receiver to deliver performance comparable to that of more expensive separates, while still providing a full array of decode modes, effects, and other features. |
| Arcam FMJ DV29 HDMI DVD-Audio Player |
While the DV27A has now been superseded (in terms of both audio and video performance) by the new DV29, it remains in the line for one simple reason. It is the only player we know of that offers both interlaced and progressive video at the same time. This makes it very useful in multi-room installations where the prog scan is required for the main room and interlaced video is sent through the rest of the house. |
| RTI T2+ Home Theater Remote Control |
