With this revolutionary design you can get imaging and staging that would be lost with regular, down-firing ceiling speakers. We accomplish this because our woofers are set at a 15Þ angle. The critical high and midrange frequencies are then pointed toward the listener, not the floor. So, when your video tracks left to right, the sound tracks right along with the video. You can even use them for rear and side surrounds in a 5.1 or 7.1 system.

Most companies sacrifice performance for cosmetics or vice versa, not Klipsch. The new Reference Series RW-10 subwoofer has a sophisticated appearance and uses a unique technology to produce a deeper, louder bass that out-drives larger competitive subs. The RW-10 also allows audiophiles to create complete Reference systems at affordable price points.
The RW-10 approaches the quality and flexibility of Klipsch's top-of-the-line RSW models at lower prices. The driving force behind this price and performance breakthrough is Klipsch's exclusive Corner Port™ Technology. This new technology allows the port tube to be as long as possible without bending, minimizing turbulence that can cause port noise and distortion. It also allows the enclosure to be tuned to a lower frequency than would otherwise be possible to create deeper bass from a smaller cabinet. Another important element is a corner-shaped flange at the port's internal opening, which amplifies the benefits of the longer port. This performance enhancing technology is only available from Klipsch.

Universal Remote Control® Complete Control™ MX-850 Aeros IR/RF Remote
Enlarge: [Large Images]
[Home Theater Master web site]
|
Free your home theatre system from the burden of multiple remote controls...
The MX-850 can be programmed to operate equipment placed throughout the house, by installing an MRF-250 or MRF-300 RF base station at each location. In operation it's simple: when you select a device located in the home theater, the MX-850 talks to the RF Base station (either MRF-250 or MRF-300) in the home theater. This makes possible a dream come true! A macro may be programmed to turn off all of the TVs in the entire house with one touch. Simply install an additional MRF-250 or MRF-300 at each TV location.
The MRF-250 and MRF-300 RF Base stations enable your installation to control up to six identical TVs or other identical components (VCRs, CD players, etc.) by routing your commands only to the device you select on your MX-850. The other identical TVs will not receive commands. This allows you to have independent control of identical devices. Very useful with devices such as cable boxes, those usually are the same make and model throughout the house.
The MX-850 controls up to 20 components. Each of the 20 components can be programmed with up to 4 pages of LCD screens, plus the 33 hard buttons. The MX-850 allows you to edit the text on each LCD screen exactly as you prefer (up to 26 screens with 10 buttons per screen, for a total of 260 available text buttons and up to 5 characters per button).
The MX Editor software contains over 1,500 "code sets" of Brands/Models, including hard to find and specific discrete codes that allow for precise control of all system components. MX Editor software also has the ability to learn new commands and Live Update the IR database over the internet, guaranteeing compatibility with any component you may add to your system in the future. MX Editor can be used on a Mac if the user has a Windows 98, XP emulator, or ME, 2000.

Universal Remote Control® Complete Control™
MX-3000 IR/RF Color Touch Screen Remote
Enlarge: [Large Images]
[Home Theater Master web site]

In a unique synthesis of hardware and software engineering, Universal Remote Control has revolutionized the standards of custom installers for color touch screen automation. The Complete Control™ MX-3000 offers some superficial similarities to previous touch screen offerings. However, in this review of the hardware and software specifications, it should be clear that the power of this new design offers custom installers and end users long needed relief in a number of key areas.
Touch screens for automating and controlling home theaters have been an important tool in the arsenal of custom installers for years. The usefulness of the touch screen lies in the installer's power to control the user interface and customize it to the client's needs specifically. To end users, the success of touch screens in the high-end home theater market has been a double edged sword. On the one hand, a touch screen offers understandable controls, powerful automation and a delightful aesthetic alternative to the clutter of conventional remote controls on the coffee table. On the other hand, touch screen users have traditionally suffered from ergonomic challenges that conventional remote controls do not.
The integral motion sensor detects any movement of the touch screen and automatically backlights the screen. The user does not have to press any button to display the screen. Any movement of the MX-3000 renews the backlighting. Without movement, the touch screen stays lit for 1 to 99 seconds (programmed by the installer). The backlighting is extremely effective, even under direct sunlight. Utilizing the latest CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) technology, the screen is vividly illuminated in a dark room and perfectly readable outdoors.
Powered by a 206MHz RISC microprocessor, the MX-3000 offers installers the first touch screen designed for animation. The powerful central processor enables quick, fluid page transitions and animated macros that entertain the client as your programmed automation goes to work configuring their system for them. The 3.8" screen offers a 320x240 pixel window to any graphic you as the installer care to provide. You can place BMP's, JPEG's, GIF's or animated GIF's on any button.
