What's New?

 
 
Mitsubishi Releasing 92in DLP TV!
It’s not quite as big as the HDTV the put into Cowboy Stadium in Dallas, but there’s no doubt Mitsubishi’s new 92-inch 3D Home Cinema is gargantuan. It’s slated to offer internet streaming capability, multi-speaker Immersive Sound Technology (IST), Bluetooth streaming audio, four HDMI inputs, a USB media player, a 120Hz sub-frame rate and a new clear contrast screen.  No official release date has been announced yet, but just to be safe, you may want to call your cabinet people and let them know that you're going to need to enlarge your current TV enclosure area soon.

Stop in and Demo the RedEye Mini from Think Flood
In what could signal a big change in the programmable remote industry, Amalgamated Audio is pleased to announce the arrival of the RedEye Mini from Think Flood.  The RedEye Mini is a new device that allows you to turn your iPhone or iPad into an IR emitting, programmable remote.  Just plug it into the headphone jack , open the RedEye application and you are ready to go.

By itself, your iPhone (or iPad) does not have the ability to send out the infrared signals used to control most home theater equipment. RedEye mini fills that gap.  It takes the power your phone delivers to the headphone jack and creates an infrared signal with it.  The Mini, combined with the free software you install on your phone, allows you to control any device in your system.  RedEye mini works with the 2nd or 3rd generation iPod touch, iPhone 3G/3GS, iPhone 4, and iPad.

THX: Video Calibration Improves Energy Efficiency
With every energy savings putting money back in your pocket, it's no surprise that people are more conscientious than ever these days when it comes to saving energy.  And while almost everyone is familiar with the energy savings created by using Energy Star products, many are still unaware that their energy savings can be compounded with proper calibration of their televisions. 

A recent study conducted by THX found that calibration of LCD and plasma TV's can improve energy efficiency up to 50%!  The study, which compared "vivid" or "dynamic" modes (the default settings on many TV's) to professionally calibrated settings on fifteen different LCD and plasma TV's found the approximate energy savings ranged from 15-50% and could produce a savings of up to $50 per year.

Amalgamated Audio has been a longtime advocate of television calibration as it greatly improves a television's picture quality.   Throw in the added energy savings it creates and it now makes more sense than ever to have your television professionally calibrated.  Call or stop in today to learn more.
