Audioengine has released the US$169 Audioengine W2 Premium Wireless Adapter for iPod. Plug the digital Sender into your iPod and connect the included receiver to your stereo and you’ll have complete control of your music from your iPod.
There’s no need to learn how to work a separate remote and the AW2 is easy to hook up, with no batteries needed, says Brady Bargenquast, Audioengine co-founder. The Audioengine W2 gives you the convenience of using your iPod as a remote control and is the perfect way to get great quality music wirelessly to your stereo, he adds.
In fact, Bargenquast says to think of the Audioengine W2 as a “dockless dock.” With a wireless connection, it’s pre-configured out of the box. The AW2 uses uncompressed CD-quality transmission technology with no network setup, software, or computer required.
The Wi-Fi-based wireless is an all-digital PCM encoded stream sent over a closed network that includes error correction and low latency. This means that your music gets to your stereo fast without any lag, loss in sound quality or interference, Bargenquast says.
