Essentia E6G

Six Sound Sources, Six Listening Zones

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.

Utilizing the same NuVoNet interface as Grand Concerto to provide full data feedback from any NuVo source unit, the Essentia Suite is a harmonious solution that’s simple to install and afford.

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.

NuVo Technologies has a capacious new version that packs a full half-terabyte of space and an even more astounding price tag. The June-bound NV-M3-500 handles WAV, WMA and those ghastly compressed MP3 files, and its ability to sync to a home computer means that it won’t take issue with playing back DRM-laden tracks, either. On the unit itself, you’ll find a polycarbonate, capacitive touch front panel interface with an OLED display and a smattering of ports ’round the back,

No sonic compromises necessary with NuVo technologies’ new 500 GB music server

Offering more than triple the capacity of its predecessor, the half-terabyte NV-M3-500 enables homeowners to easily store, distribute and manage their digital music collections at the highest bit rates possible-even fully uncompressed.

Hebron, KY – April 15, 2008 – NuVo Technologies’ newest music server more than triples the capacity of its predecessor, providing homeowners the ample disk space necessary to comfortably store their digital music at larger file capacities. The new NV-M3-500 Music Server, announced today, offers 500 GB (or a half-terabyte) of storage, a quantum leap in capacity over NuVo’s still-available, 160 GB NV-M3 Music Server. Music lovers now have two compelling music server options available from NuVo.

“Digital music collections are growing exponentially, along with consumers’ desire to enjoy high-bit-rate and even lossless audio files,” said David Rodarte, president and chief operating officer of NuVo Technologies. “Highly compressed audio files are fine for portable players, but homeowners now recognize that for home theater and whole-home entertainment, only files with higher bit rates offer the sound quality they want. With the NV-M3-500, homeowners no longer need to make sonic compromises with their digital music. Every digital track in their collections can both sound great and be easily accessible in any room of the house through our new music server and our Grand Concerto and Essentia E6G whole-home audio systems.”

Using Windows® Media Player and the uncompressed WAV file format, homeowners can enjoy pristine, audiophile-quality playback with a bitstream identical to every bit of what they would get from a CD. NuVo engineers estimate that homeowners can store roughly 830 CDs in uncompressed WAV on the NV-M3-500. The server can also store and play Windows Media Audio (WMA) and compressed MP3 files.

NuVo music servers offer full Digital Rights Management (DRM) compliance, three source outputs, NuVoNet Communication and Windows® Media Player music management. The server syncs to a home PC to retrieve music files and allow playback of DRM music; the experience is akin to syncing with a portable MP3 player. The music server also can act as a source for NuVo’s Grand Concerto whole-home audio system, where, combined with other NuVo source devices such as its AM/FM, XM and Sirius tuners and iPod docks, the homeowner can seamlessly enjoy an enormous amount of personally-acquired and broadcast music in any room of the house with just the push of a button on a NuVo Control Pad. Full metadata for all tracks stored on the server is available on the Control Pad.

The music server offers a polycarbonate, capacitive touch front panel interface with OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) display (similar to that of the Grand Concerto Control Pads), backup of audio files on a connected PC or on a portable player, simultaneous output of three audio streams, and instant compatibility with downloaded and subscription-based music. CDs are simply ripped to Windows Media Player on the PC and synced to the music server.

Syncing between the PC and the music server can be accomplished in either of two ways. The first is via a standard USB port connection; for situations where the PC and the server are physically remote, a “behind-the-walls” extender system can use CAT-5 to link to USB cables at either end. In addition, NuVo’s Wireless USB Syncing Device enables syncing between the PC and the music server without a hard-wired connection, providing a USB device connection over Wireless-G.
