| Audssey DSX Upgrade for AVR3310 |
AVR3310 Audyssey DSX Upgrad
Audyssey DSX sound processing technology extends 5.1- and 7.1-channel sound sources to a wider and higher dimension considering the human perception that is usually focused on the front. A more spacious sound is achieved through a pair of wide speakers placed wider than the usual front speakers, and a greater sense of height in sound is achieved by adding two height speakers above the front.
Until now, Audyssey DSX was only available with Denon's upper class AVR-4310 and AVR-4810. With this new feature upgrade, current and future owners of the AVR-3310 get the chance to add a unique technology to their home theatre. In the future, Denon will continue to sell the AVR-3310 without Audyssey DSX to give their customers the right to choose whether they would like to have this feature or not.
During 2009, several thousand owners of an AVR-4308, AVR-3808, AVC- or AVP-A1HD successfully used a similar opportunity to upgrade their devices with new features at a fair price point thus further increasing the value of their Denon product

| VISOTWO and VISOFIVE win coveted Red Dot Design Award |
NAD Electronics, the highly regarded manufacturer of high-performance audio/video components, has been awarded the prestigious international 2008 red dot award in the product design category for its new VISO FIVE DVD/CD Surround Sound Receiver and VISO TWO DVD/CD Receiver.
The VISO FIVE and VISO TWO are honoured with the red dot design award for their creativity, high quality product standards and innovative design. The red dot 24 member jury of noted design experts from around the world faced a tough challenge as this year’s competition attracted 3,203 products from 51 nations vying for the coveted red dot award.
The award will be presented in a formal ceremony June 23 in the Aalto Theatre, Essen Opera House, Essen, Germany where about 1200 international guests from the fields of design, the arts, business and politics will gather. The VISO FIVE and VISO TWO will then join other winning products in the “design on stage” exhibition at the red dot design museum on the premises of the Zeche Zollverein World Cultural Heritage Site, June 24 to July 27, 2008. The museum houses the world’s largest permanent exhibition of contemporary design products.
At their introduction earlier this year, NAD Director of Product Development, Greg Stidsen, noted that “The VISO FIVE and VISO TWO are as much about Industrial Design as about state-of-the-art audio and video performance. The visual language of VISO conveys both sculptural precision and refined elegance making a strong design statement. These products have a positive visual presence that simply demands attention!”
The Red Dot Competition
“While in the past design has for many American entrepreneurs been a means to end, more and more are now realizing that they have to pursue a premium strategy in order to be internationally competitive in the long run,” says expert Professor Dr. Peter Zec, initiator of the red dot design award, explaining this development. “Design awareness appears to be changing. Apple has successfully led the way, but now other interested companies follow suit.” “Receiving an international honor, such as the red dot award, he noted, is an important indicator of whether a product has the potential to succeed internationally.
Products submitted to the red dot design award are assessed by an international jury of renowned design experts. They examine and test the products according to such criteria as degree of innovation, functionality, ergonomics, longevity, ecological compatibility, and clarity of function.

| SIM2 releases groundbreaking new projector - redefining what is possible in home cinema |
SIM2, the Italian manufacturer whose striking high performance HD home theatre projectors are known worldwide for their pristine video and dramatic cabinet designs, has introduced the exciting next generation design of the award winning Grand Cinema C3X projector. SIM2 C3X1080 integrates benchmark quality 1080p video display with the functions and features required to power today’s sophisticated home theatres, all within the dramatic industrial design for which SIM2 is justly famous.
In 2005, the original C3X model revolutionised the home theatre market. For 2007, SIM2 is taking the C3X concept to the next performance level. The new C3X1080, as its name suggests, is a full HD 1080p projector, but shares the same compact form factor as the original.
In the best SIM2 tradition, the 43cm square, 10kg C3X1080 is housed in a stunning, high-gloss sculpted cabinet designed by Giorgio Revoldini with the company’s trademark flowing lines. Revoldini, who has designed several SIM2 models, has received several prestigious international industrial design awards, including a 2006 Good Design medal – a coveted award in industrial and graphic design administered by the Chicago Athenaeum.
Although diminutive in size, the C3X1080 conceals truly powerful abilities and a great deal of technology. The projector is based on a trio of the latest DarkChip4™, 0.95-inch, 1080p DLP® chipsets from Texas Instruments. The three-chip SIM2 design further exploits improved optics in SIM2’s proprietary ALPHAPATH™ light engine to form a system able to deliver full-HD, 1920x1080 progressive video of stunning clarity and definition. The combination’s superb contrast (=10,000:1, typically) matches its impressive colour depth and remarkable brightness capability, for a net result of breathtaking, almost three-dimensional picture performance from high quality source material.
With the C3X1080, SIM2 has created more than a mere reference grade projector. Full depth 10-bit video processing, with HD scaling and de-interlacing capabilities, maintains 1080p/24fps full-HD purity under actual content playback conditions, and does much to upgrade the delivered perceived quality of lesser formats. What’s more, SIM2’s newly developed advanced colour management software is available to permit installers and calibrators to precisely match each projector to its home theatre environment. SIM2’s software allows near total control over colour and white-point coordinates, gamma correction and more for unprecedented power to refine and improve real world installed performance.
The latest SIM2 achievement incorporates the functions and features demanded by custom theatre designers and installers. The C3X1080 delivers two selectable HDMI inputs (both fully HDCP compliant), as well as inputs for Component, S- and Composite-video, and an RGB connection. Both RS232 serial and USB ports are included to ease connectivity for control and software/firmware communications. Even twin 12-volt trigger outputs are on board for total flexibility of installation and control.
The C3X1080 is available now from selected SIM2 specialist dealers. Released Date: 19/02/08 |
