URC Adds Control Hub, Full Multiroom AudioBy Julie Jacobson
In addition to the new MRX-10 controller and two new remotes, URC will debut at CEDIA a complete multiroom audio system including two amps, streaming media player and keypad.There’s a new multiroom audio company in the CE pro channel, but you probably already have an account with them: URC.
At CEDIA 2010, the popular manufacturer of universal remotes will introduce a full slate of audio products including multi- and single-zone amplifiers, a streaming media player and a hard-button in-wall keypad.
The company also will debut a new networked control hub, two new universal remotes, three new IP surveillance cameras, and two network switches with and without power over Ethernet (PoE).
All of the products fall into the new Total Control line, as in “Total Control: my house, my way,” says URC marketing director Jon Sienkiewicz.
Multiroom AudioBecause our industry was in dire need of a new multiroom audio system, URC has come to the party with the eight-zone DMS-1200 Digital Multi-zone Amplifier, delivering 50 watts of audio to up to six zones, along with pre-amp outputs for two additional zones that require more power, like the patio.
