This is the description from the EOS website:
The new Eos Converge multi-room wireless audio system and the Eos Wireless Audio iPod Speaker System give you the freedom to put your music wherever you are. With the new Converge wireless audio system or the Eos Wireless Audio iPod Speakers you can broadcast your music up to 150 feet away, inside or out. All digital means no static, no interference. With an Eos whole-home audio system you can put your music in absolutely any room you want -- the bedroom, the backyard, the kitchen, the bathroom...wherever you are. Best of all you can use the Eos multi-room wireless audio system with all the audio equipment you already have... your home audio system, home theater system, iPod, satellite radio and more.

Plug your Eos multi-room wireless audio system into your computer and wirelessly stream Pandora, Rhapsody, Last FM or thousands of internet radio stations to your Eos wireless speakers. With iTunes and your iPhone or iPod Touch (and Apple's free Remote Application) you can browse and play your entire music library, summon up playlists and even use search to find your favorite songs and artists...all from the palm of your hand. With the Eos Wireless Audio iPod Speakers, just drop in your iPod and stream it everywhere.

Music used in demo was by Budian.

Mac Home Theater Project – A Work In Progress

January 7th, 2010 25 comments

2 Mac Home Theater Project   A work in ProgressMac powered home theater systems are quite underrepresented on sites like YouTube. I thought I would share my work in progress to give a very simple overview of how I approached accessing my media in my living room.

I have BOXEE but have been too busy to play around with it. (Update: I removed boxee, not for me.) For now controlling the system with my iPhone seems to work well.

The system features:
-Brains: Mac Pro (3.0GHzX8cores - 18GB memory - 4TB storage (0:28)
-Sound: Logitech Z5500 (Optical in) (1:08)
-Storage: ReadyNas NV+ (3.6TB) (1:13) + XServe SAN (not seen) 10TB.
-TV: Samsung 50" plasma (0:05)
-Remote: iPhone (0:02)
-iTunes library: 3.7TB
-3.5" hard drive dock - For import/exporting large files.
-Everything that is geographically locked (ie: DVD players) are Region 1. It is far cheaper to import new stuff from North America than it is to buy it in Australia.
NOTE: For some reason my camera couldn't pick up the visualizer... quite strange.

Updates:
-I updated the video cards on the Mac Pro to: Nvidia 8800GT
-Replaced last 750GB drive with 1TB
-Upgraded with 4gb more memory.

Update 2:
-Added a new 400MB/s 10GB PCIe Raid Tower (CalDigit HDPro): ~75% in formatted for iTunes playback.
-Downgraded out 4GB of memory in prep for Mac Pro update at MacWorld in January.
-Got $3000 in gift cards for iTunes from friends for Christmas, sadly I already own most of the videos/shows available on iTunes.
-Hid Mac Pro, HDPro Tower, Time Machine, HDD dock, etc inside cabinet as I like everything hidden.

Update 3:
-Added PS3 and XBox360... I'm not as big a gamer as I used to be but got them über cheap. As with everything else, they're region 1 even though I live in Australia... So much cheaper to import everything than buy it there.
