Chic Bathroom Installation From Aquavision

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009

 Chic Bathroom Installation From AquavisionSound and Vision company DSE Digital, recently completed a multi-room installation in one of the finest new-build properties in Newcastle upon Tyne.

The stunning, contemporary house features all the luxuries and technologies you would expect in a house of the future – plus a few more, including an Aquavision waterproof television in the bathroom.

The owners of this chic home required security that could be accessed from anywhere in the world, discrete lighting with mood control, music throughout the house and a home cinema / games room.

Once this was achieved, they decided they wanted the added luxury of a television they could watch whilst soaking in the bath.

The 17” Aquavision in our picture is connected to Sky and has multi-room sound so the owners can listen to music, watch television or a DVD, which is distributed via a computer server to the bathroom.
The built in magic eye also allows the SKY and DVD to be controlled from the bath.

Aquavision has now launched the world’s first full HD Waterproof television -

  • The S4 HD 40” in –wall / waterproof television features the RS232 control port, making it compatible with the likes of Crestron, AMX, iLight and Systemline, therefore enabling it to be controlled from a compatible touch panel anywhere in the home.
  • The new model incorporates a true, full High Definition (1920 x 1080) LCD panel that delivers exceptional picture performance.
  • Two remote controls (one master and one waterproof) are provided with the new waterproof television and a hard wired control panel is available to fix on the wall.
  • The S4 HD 40” is available in the Mirrorvision finish, so that when the television is off, the glass becomes a mirror that is perfect for shaving, make-up etc.

Bang & Olufsen Launches Giant TV Concept

Thursday, April 9th, 2009

Bang & Olufsen Launches Giant TV Concept With the launch of the BeoVision 4 103-inch television, Bang & Olufsen takes a quantum leap towards the ultimate flat screen television.

Not only is it one of the biggest televisions on the market, it is also the only giant television to come with a stand that can lift the television at the touch of a button and turn and tilt it to the optimal viewing position.

Powerful and discreet-placed on a motorized floor stand, BeoVision 4-103 represents a whole new approach to the placement of a giant flat screen TV; the screen itself will rest only inches above the floor when the TV is not in use, reducing its prominence in the room and concealing all integrated applications.

When the television is turned on, the screen elevates itself to the optimal viewing position and the seamlessly integrated BeoLab 10 centre loudspeaker will emerge underneath the screen, moving forward until it is flush with the front frame of the screen.

At the same time, the screen will turn and tilt according to the user’s preferences. When the television goes into standby mode, the whole process is repeated in reverse, all at the touch of a button on the Beo5 remote control.

BeoVision 4-103 is by nature mainly suited for home cinema viewing, owing to its exceptional picture quality and its significant size. However, it also incorporates a range of picture improvement technologies, such as automatic picture control and an anti-reflection coated contrast screen, which enhances the viewing experience during daytime viewing.

Offering a superior integrated surround sound solution, which makes it possible to connect up to 14 BeoLab loudspeakers, BeoVision 4-103 furthermore introduces Adaptive Sound Technology. With this technology, the sound can be made to appear directly in front of the listener, no matter where the loudspeakers are placed and regardless of the listener’s position in the room.

Hitachi’s Ultra Thin LCD TV Is Now Affordable

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

Hitach's Ultra Thin LCD TV Is Now Affordable Hitachi re-engineered the flat screen TV from the inside out, to deliver this especially stylish and sleek Ultra Thin LCD - now all screen sizes are a staggering one third the depth of the conventional flat screen TV – and very affordable.

With a tiny 35mm profile and weighing as little as 10.9 kilos, these streamlined models were the first to offer 360 degree styling, making them slimmer, lighter and stunning from every angle.

Easier and more convenient to position, they offer greater freedom of space, movement and placement within the home - to fit in beautifully with the most image conscious of lifestyles.

Available in 32-inch, 37 and 42 inch 1080 HD formats, these Hitachi LCDs link to either your Sky, Freeview, or Cable box, with only one lead from the box to the TV.

All models boast IPS LCD technology, for superior brightness, contrast and colour; ensuring that their small profile doesn’t compromise on large-screen viewing performance.

There is no need to confine the flat screen to a corner, or with its back against a wall; concealed cabling and a minimalist stand, combined with elegant design details, chamfered edges and polished accents, carried all the way round the frame, ensures that each model looks as appealing from the back as from the front.

This radical new design approach frees users to position the new screens wherever and however they like.
Priced from around £783.
