Does 3D TV Do The Job?
Wednesday, June 16, 2010
We think the one reason why people say 3D TV isn't that good at home is the fact that at the cinemas, your field of vision is completely taken up with the image, and thus the 3D is covering both your direct and peripheral vision.

LED versus LCD and Plasma
Wednesday, June 16, 2010
What else do you need to say about LED when it makes standard def Foxtel look 50% better than either LCD or plasma? We have never seen Foxtel look as good as it did on an LED. 100Hz, 200Hz, yadda yadda yadda. You can add what you like to old technology, but it will only give minor improvements on a basic picture. LED has better colours, is brighter,

Essentia E6G

Essentia E6G

The Essentia delivers the startlingly clear sound of NuVo from up to six different sources, and to six different listening zones in the house. It’s diverse, expandable, and surprisingly affordable. And now, Essentia is the first whole home audio system to earn the Energy Star logo – consuming less than 1 watt of power while in standby mode. Essentia E6G includes a stunning new control pad interface, with OLED display providing full metadata feedback. Coplanar buttons provide a smooth, clean finish with the overall polycarbonate surface, making the entire control pad water-resistant. Essentia features Philips Class D digital audio amplification to deliver clear, precise sound throughout your home, which adds energy efficiency while running. It’s like no other multi-source system on the market. Essentia’s RS-232 bidirectional control interface allows it to be controlled from most home automation systems – just one of the many features that make Essentia an incredible value in today’s home audio market. NuVo systems come complete with all necessary components for installation, including keypads. All that’s needed are speakers, wire, and audio source equipment, and you can enjoy the power of Essentia in no time.

An easy system for us to install, meaning not much cost, with a really effective result.

We have driven many sizes and styles of speaker with this system and had no problems with the result. All of our clients have found the NuVo Essentia easy to use, and large enough for a family who can use up to three iPods at a time these days.

The Party mode that has the whole system running as one is an essential with parties that happen in many rooms, and areas like the kitchen that have more ambient noise can be turned up louder than a quieter area like the lounge.

You can even beef up the sound by plugging into your main room system for a more exciting sound. We do highly recommend installing the cables at renovation or building stage, but if it is too late, we can always work something out for you.
