JVC is getting hip to the digital media age as it brings streaming audio to 5 new products
In a recent press release JVC announced the company will hop on the digital
media bandwagon by offering a line of audio and video set top hardware which
will support connectivity to PCs to stream music to the home theater.
JVC will be launching five models of audio/video receivers that feature
7.1-channel surround sound and will also have USB audio inputs built in to them.
We are assuming this will be a single-directional USB port. Two of these models
will have wireless USB connections built in which are said to operate at around
or up to 100 feet
away from a wireless access point.
Additionally, HDMI will also be built in to two of these models, the RX-D702B
and the RX-D411S/412B (silver/black). These models will have 2 HDMI inputs and
1 HDMI output to a compatible HDTV. Two other models will not feature the HDMI
inputs/outputs, but they will have component output with the ability to
up-convert composite and S-Video sources.
To add to the digital connectivity JVC has included compatibility with XM
Satellite Radio equipment. JVC's press release claims:
The new JVC RX-D411S/412B and RX-D211S/212B receivers are XM Satellite
Radio-ready and so have the ability to access XM Satellite Radio through XM
Connect and Play, an optional tuner that connects through a single cable – no
power cord or audio cables are required. All XM Satellite Radio functions are
operated through the receiver’s remote and information is shown on the
receiver’s display.
The included remote also has a few buttons to control Sirius Satellite Radio
tuners offered by JVC as an added bonus to give consumers the option between
the two satellite radio providers.
The entire line will also feature JVC's Hybrid Feedback digital amplifier which
has a small package but is said to pack quite a punch to assure the output of
sound with little to no loss of quality. This technology helps shrink down the
size of the receiver to a lower profile.
Further details on the 5 new models along with pricing for each is included in
the press release but make sure you do a quick search online for lower prices
before hitting your local brick and mortar electronics retailer.
