Audioengine W1 Broadcasts Wireless CD-Quality Audio up to 100 ft.
March 13th, 2008DON'T MISS
For those of us that have HTPC’s and home theater setups, playing our music through the 5.1 speakers is a breeze. Unfortunately for those that don’t have a HTPC there are little options other than to build one or use something similar to the Logitech Wireless Music DJ. It appears that powered-speaker supplier Audioengine has decided to get in on the mix of things and offer their own CD-quality wireless system. The W1 Premium Wireless Adapter package connects to your PC via a bus-powered dongle and transmits the your sound in 48kHz/16-bit uncompressed aural bliss. Audioengine claims that the signal can be transmitted up to 100 feet away, meaning that you can probably send your music to just about anywhere in your house and maybe even your garage. Operating on the 2.4GHz wireless spectrum, the company says that it has gone through a lot of trouble to prevent interference from devices such as cordless phones that operate on the same frequency. At a price of $150, this might not only be a great alternative to a HTPC, but a great addition as well. Creative Xmod Wireless
