XITEL
Renee Blodgett, President of Blodgett Communica-
tions was on hand to demonstrate Xitel’s new
SOUNDaround, a high quality audio solution that
gives users a complete home theater-like experi-
ence without the need for expensive equipment or
complex installation. Xitel’s new system is simple,
easy-to-use, and works through two normal speak-
ers, yet provides users with a complete, vibrant and
rich cinema experience.
While surround sound systems can sound fabu-
lous, to achieve a satisfactory experience costs a
lot of money and requires a precise installation by
professionals. If a speaker is placed wrongly or is
not appropriate for the task, the results can be very
disappointing.
Many audio companies want you to believe the
only way to create realistic home theater sound is
to fill your room with expensive speakers. There is
a lot more work in getting a multi-speaker system
right than most people really appreciate; it’s clearly
not as simple as pulling a few components out of a
box and plugging them in. SOUNDaround allows
consumers to achieve an outstanding high-quality
home theater experience from their DVD movies
and games, using their existing equipment. With
SOUNDaround there’s no reason to thrown away
your perfectly good stereo - for less than $100 you
can turn it into an awesome home theater without
having to spend lots of money on messy cables,
multiple speakers, or expensive surround sound
amplifiers.
