Monitor Audio has conceived the ASB-2 as the ultimate audio hub for the home. It can operate as a high quality soundbar beneath a TV monitor from rack or wall positions, but offers so much more than the conventional amalgam of left, centre, right speakers.< Br>
Apple Air Play, DLNA & UPn P enabled, the ASB-2 will deliver uncompressed music from files stored on PC or Mac, iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch, Android or Windows phone, or streamed from Internet services.
In addition to i Tunes & DNLA compatible Apps, friends can connect & play directly to the ASB-2 without network access via Airplay Direct.
Connect a plethora of sound sources to the ASB-2 via three HDMI inputs & use the HDMI output for 1080p/3D video pass through & OSD.
HDMI 1.4's Audio Return Channel (ARC) allows for the two way transfer of information between the ASB-2 & a compatible device, creating an additional input from the HDMI output. Digital S/PDIF optical & coaxial inputs add further flexibility, together with stereo analogue RCAs for plugging-in legacy radios & CD players.
A single RCA LFE output allows for system expansion with an external sub-woofer
- crossover filtering is automatic. Network setup & upgrades are via USB (Universal Serial Bus) or Wi-Fi.
