Join Juke Audio for an in-depth look at AudioMate, the newest addition to the Juke ecosystem and a purpose-built tool for simplifying multi-room audio installs. AudioMate is a wireless companion device that connects over Ethernet or Wi-Fi to any network running a Juke amplifier, letting installers add audio inputs and zone outputs anywhere in a home—without pulling long cable runs back to the rack. With RCA and HDMI (e-ARC) inputs and outputs, it bridges third-party gear like TVs, turntables, subwoofers, and soundbars directly into the Juke app as new sources or zones. This session shows AV installers how AudioMate saves labor and material on every job while unlocking new design possibilities, extends the broader Juke amplifier lineup into a flexible whole-property solution, and positions cleanly as a client upsell.
Learning Objectives / Key Takeaways:
-
Eliminate long cable runs — Add audio sources and zone outputs anywhere on-site via a wireless network connection, cutting wire cost and install time on complex jobs.
-
Integrate TV audio effortlessly — Route TV sound into any Juke zone through HDMI e-ARC, including placing AudioMate between a TV and soundbar so both play in perfect sync.
-
Bring in external devices as native zones — Use RCA and HDMI inputs to add turntables, projectors, and more as sources, while outputs turn powered subs, speakers, and third-party amps into groupable zones—all from one app.
-
Extend the Juke ecosystem — Pair AudioMate with the Juke 6, Juke 8, and Juke+ to expand system flexibility, with simultaneous input-and-output capability enabling creative designs across a property.
-
Position for profitable installs — Apply best practices for network setup and multi-unit deployments, and present AudioMate as a value-add upsell at a $249 price point.
