THIEL Audio Intros Zöet, Premium Quality Distributed Audio And Home Theater System With IP-Addressable Speakers

US loudspeaker company THIEL Audio announces world's first truly plug-n-play, multi-room, multi-channel, audiophile quality distributed audio system featuring the pure THIEL sound. The Zöet concept utilizes your existing home Ethernet and its lossless proprietary wireless network to locate and connect zöet self-powered IP-addressable speakers via dB1 distribution processor.

If that sounds familiar to you, the same concept was called THIELnet back in CES 2008. THIELnet was demonstrated at CES 2008 using 5xwireless SCS4 monoblock 250watts speaker managed by ThielNet DB1 system. May be the partnership didn't work out with BICOM after all. Back to the topic, the Zöet system can be operated from an intuitive remote control and system operation is accessible via a simple web interface which also provides system changes and firmware upgrades.

According to Thiel, the biggest issue with networked and wireless audio systems is that sound between speakers is never properly synchronized. What zöet does better compares to others is incorporating an innovative technology that preserves signal synchronization to improve imaging and reduce echo effect common to other network-based systems. Using proprietary algorithms to sustain the synchronization combine with automated bass integration and channel steering, Thiel claims that zöet's performance equals that of traditional high-end audio systems. Put it this way, zöet allows audiophile to shave a few thousands off snake oil speaker cables.
