BTX Named US Distributor Of Soundog Wireless Tabletop Audio System

BTX Technologies Inc, a manufacturer and value-added distributor of professional-grade products used to interface and integrate A/V, broadcast, home theatre, data and security systems, has announced that it has been named as the US distributor of the Soundog audio system.
Manufactured by Sprox Inc, the Soundog system consists of a 4, 6 or 8-channel transmitters and wireless tabletop speakers. The Soundog speakers allow restaurant and sports bar patrons to hear audio right at their tables from any of the displays stationed around the establishment.
Soundog's wireless audio technology has unleashed a new way for sports enthusiasts to enjoy sporting events in a bar or restaurant setting - seeing the game while simultaneously hearing the play-by-play commentary. Employing a long-range frequency, the Soundog speaker allows customers to audio surf through eight programmes being broadcast simultaneously. While the establishment selects the programming, the customers can control the volume using digital push buttons and an easy on/off volume control on a hand-held unit.
Doug Buday, CEO of Sprox, said: "We selected BTX as the US distributor for Soundog based on the company's history of quality representation, dedication to innovation, and its vast network of representative channel partners. We are confident that this agreement will provide greater access to Soundog for a broader customer base, while also offering hands-on, high-quality service."
The digital eight-channel transmitter, which broadcasts sound over a low FM frequency, does not interfere with other wireless devices. Soundog works with any standard or high-definition cable or satellite receiver, including DirecTV or any other audio source. The system runs for a minimum of 16 hours on a single charge and recharges overnight on a wall-mounted charging station called the DogHouse.
Greg Schwartz, President of BTX, said: "We are proud to be the Soundog distributor in the US. We have a history of providing innovative A/V solutions, and Soundog is certainly no exception. It is a real breakthrough product that brings the game to life for sports fans, while also increasing profits for bar and restaurant owners."
BTX's representative channel partners are offering live demos of the product throughout the country. Live demos will also be held in the BTX booth at InfoComm 2008.
