(October 3, 2024) Fasetto, Inc., known for its innovative IP technology solutions, wants to change how you feed an audio signal to speakers. Rather than use an AVR with copper speaker wire or wireless Bluetooth and WiFi technologies, Fasetto's "Audio Cu" system taps the existing power lines in your home, eliminating the need for traditional receivers and the hassle of running speaker wires. Designed to support a wide range of configurations, Audio Cu is compatible with any passive speaker that features standard speaker terminals, giving owners tremendous flexibility and choice.
The key to Audio Cu’s functionality lies in its proprietary transmitter and receiver technology. The system begins with a transmitter box connected to an audio source (like a TV), which plugs into a standard 120V power outlet. From there, each speaker in the system has its own receiver box, which is also plugged into the wall and connected to the speaker terminals. This setup eliminates the need for long runs of speaker wire and integrates seamlessly with various speaker types, from bookshelf models to larger, high-end floor-standing designs. Audio Cu is capable of supporting up to 10 channels per system with configurations ranging from a basic 2.0 stereo setup to more immersive 9.1 home theater arrangements.
In terms of fidelity, Audio Cu is said to excel through its patented audio interface, which employs artificial intelligence to remove any interference that may occur from other devices sharing the same power lines, such as refrigerators or washing machines. This, says Fasetto, results in a clean, high-quality feed without the interruptions or dropouts you might experience with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth-based systems. Unlike many wireless audio solutions, Audio Cu is not susceptible to structural interference or radio frequency issues, making it a robust option for home theater enthusiasts or those looking to expand their audio systems into multiple rooms.
Control of the entire system is handled through a dedicated mobile app, available for both iOS and Android devices. This app allows users to manage each speaker individually, tweaking sound effects like treble and bass or adjusting equalizer settings to match specific listening preferences. Additionally, users can select different audio presets or modes, creating a custom sound experience that's adjustable on the fly.
Recently, Audio Cu underwent extensive testing by Dolby Laboratories to validate its ability to handle complex signals over power lines without compromising sound quality or introducing latency. Testing went well, and Fasetto has announced that Audio Cu is now a certified Dolby Atmos Product. With this certification, Fasetto has not only validated Audio Cu’s ability to deliver pristine Dolby Atmos and Dolby Digital sound, but also established it as the first system capable of doing so over power lines.
