| URC, a global manufacturer of smart automation products for residential and commercial applications, launched a two-way IP module for integration of its Total Control system with Russound MBX Streaming Audio Solutions. The module is available today to authorized URC installers via URC’s dealer portal. “We’re excited to be adding two-way integration of Russound’s MBX streaming audio solutions to our portfolio of Total Control integration partners,” says Lars Granoe, Vice President of product development, URC. “This new module makes configuration of Russound’s MBX streaming products with URC’s Total Control smart automation and control system a breeze for trained and authorized dealers.” |
| The module supports both the Russound MBX AMP and MBX PRE models, which both feature streaming services from Spotify Connect, Tidal, Sirius XM, Deezer, TuneIn and vTuner, to give the homeowner a plethora of streaming services to choose from using any URC Total Control User Interface. Homeowners can easily select and control songs, playlists and favorites, view metadata, browse content and manage groups. Homeowners can also set and recall favorite songs or playlists directly from any URC Total Control Interface. |
| Russound’s MBX-AMP is a full-featured streaming audio player with a built-in amplifier; the MBX-PRE is a preamp-only (non-amplified) version designed to be the perfect streaming audio source for Russound’s MCA-Series amplifiers / controllers like the MCA-66 and MCA-88. URC announced a module to control Russound’s MCA-Series amplifiers / controllers last November. More news from URC: URC All-in on Smart Appliances, Commercial Tools at ISE |
