The ‘Afinity’ Series system embodies all
the convenience and utility of a computer, with
the fidelity of a conventional hi-fi system. At
once, the single-room, single-CD hi-fi systems of
old are rendered obsolete. Used together, the Afinity
Series components will allow you to enjoy your entire
CD music collection and audio and video from a range
of other media channels in any six rooms at the
touch of a button or screen – and, coming soon,
wirelessly from a WebPad or tablet PC.
Living Control’s Afinity Series
MusicBox3 is a digital server. It will allow users
to store over 2650 hours of music on a built-in 160Gb
hard disk, and will facilitate playback of up to 3
independent streams of music simultaneously.
Living Control’s Afinity Series
RoomBox4 and RoomBox6 are the digital multi-room distribution
systems, custom made for the MusicBox3 server. They
will deliver music from six sources to four or six
rooms in the home. All the potential of DAB radio,
DVD, MP3, digital TV, CD and Living Control’s
MusicBox3 is available at the touch of a keypad/screen
in any room in high fidelity.
Living Control’s Afinity RoomBox6VX
will allow you to switch any video channel to the
room you’re in using the same in-room keypad/screen.
Now you can enjoy pictures and sound all around the
house.
Coming soon: wireless control of your
Living Control system. You can use a PDA (Personal
Digital Assistant) or a Web Pad to control your entire
Living Control multi-room system via the Afinity NetBox
wireless control interface.
This is how
it works together:
Simply upload all your CDs, or download
music from the Internet onto the hard drive of the
MusicBox3. Its advanced technology records and stores
content simultaneously so that you can store and entire
CD in as little as four minutes! Then you can store
your CDs in the attic.
Through the RoomBox4 or 6 digital multi-room
system, you can select the tracks you want to listen
to in any room by name using Living Control’s
discreet wall-mounted VideoPads (RoomBox6 only) or
DisplayPads in each room - or use a PDA or Web Pad
through the upcoming NetBox wireless interface. Playback
is instantaneous; there’s no need to wait for
a CD to load.
Listen to DAB radio, DVD, MP3, cable/satellite
TV, or Living Control’s MusicBox content anywhere
in the home. Or view TV or video through the RoomBox6VX.
Mum, Dad and the kids can listen to
three different tracks stored on the MusicBox3 in
three different rooms simultaneously.
The soon to be released NetBox wireless
interface will let them surf the Net or control the
system in any room.
Like all Living Control systems, the
‘Afinity’ system from Living Control will
free your home from the eyesore impact of conventional
single-room media systems, and liberate your time
in so many ways.
The ‘Afinity’ components and
other audio sources may be stored out of sight, but
all your favourite entertainment channels and the
power of the Internet are literally at your fingertips,
wherever and whenever you want to enjoy them in the
home.
No more fiddling with jewel cases, no
more gazing at racks of CDs to find that special track,
and no more chance of loosing it.
What’s more, no more ugly hi-fi
systems or even computer systems occupying space and
gathering dust in each room.
With ‘Afinity’ from Living
Control, the much vaunted convergence of audio and
IT is complete, and the “invisible” whole-house
entertainment and media system has truly arrived.
