Klipsch and URC Announce New Driver for URC Control of Klipsch Reference Premier HD Wireless Speaker System
INDIANAPOLIS (April 7, 2016) —Klipsch®, a tech driven audio company, announces today the integration of its award-winning Reference Premiere HD Wireless Speaker System with all URC® remote controllers, including the Total Control® line and the Complete Control® line.
Designed to save installers programming time, the new driver is now available to URC-authorized dealers in the April release of the URC Accelerator configuration software and is compatible with all lines of the URC remotes.
The Klipsch Reference Premiere HD Wireless Speaker System delivers lossless, multi-channel audio wirelessly and can be scaled from a 2.1 channel system up to a 7.1 channel system. Through the use of state of the art WiSA technology, not a single detail is lost from the source to the speakers as the signal is transmitted digitally all the way to the speaker.
Klipsch values our custom installation partners and is placing an increased focus on making it easier for them to integrate our digital systems with 3rd party control systems,” explains Steve Jain, VP and General Manager at Klipsch Group, Inc. “URC is a leader in the home automation space and we look forward to working closely with URC on future projects that will expand our integration capabilities to other Klipsch products and over other connectivity platforms.”
URC’s Total Control and Complete Control systems allow dealers to save time and resources on programming and installation and allow for increased sophistication in home theater and whole-house automation.
Homeowners will benefit from this integration partnership as well. URC’s Total Control system makes it possible for one remote to automate the audio in a home theater, as well as the video, lighting and HVAC throughout the entire home.
