Eos is the world’s first digital wireless “whole home audio” speaker system for the iPod.  Using WiFi friendly technology, the Eos system links up to four stereo remote wireless speakers, establishing interference-free CD sound quality (48Khz) via each satellite speaker up to 150 feet away. 

At the heart of the Eos system is an iPod docking base station/transmitter that has two stereo drivers and a ported subwoofer and SRS Wow sound enhancement technology. The attributes of the SRS WOW signal are broadcast to all the wireless stereo remote speakers linked to the base station/transmitter. Like the base station, the Eos remote wireless speakers have two stereo drivers and a ported subwoofer. The wireless remote speakers have a removable, integrated power supply that allows the speakers to mount directly on a wall power outlet independently, without mounting brackets or other support. By removing the power supply from its cavity on the rear of the cabinet, the stereo remote speaker can sit independently on a counter top or bookshelf.

The Eos system will be available at retail in March 2007.  The core system includes a docking station/transmitter with one wireless remote speaker ($299).  Additional Eos wireless speaker remotes, as well as a Eos weatherproof wireless outdoor amplifier and a stand-alone transmitter/receiver bundle are available separately ($129).
