September 12th, 2006 — By editor
NuVo Technologies will introduce it’s new NV-M3 Music Server, which is designed for music management in the homes of the future and acts as a bridge for migrating music from the way it is being stored today. It simplifies managing music in the home similarly to portable music technology. The downloading process is a snap, and instantly accessible to the homeowner. Plus, it will be offered at a stunning value of $2199 MSRP.
Here’s how it works…The consumer downloads music into their home computer with Microsoft® Media Player and then it synchronizes with NuVo’s NV-M3 media player, just like the homeowner’s MP3 player. The added security of having dual storage (or tertiary storage with an MP3 player) of all the music files, both on the Windows Media Player and on NuVo’s NV-M3, make data loss virtually impossible. All standard CD’s can also be ripped to Windows Media Player, synced, and backup protected, as they never have before.
Key features include:
3 Source Outputs – Play 3 different songs simultaneously in multiple zones.
Standard 160 GB Hard Disk storage of music files – That equates to 40,000 songs.
Uses Windows® Media Player 10 – Direct communication through USB ports between NuVo’s Music Server and Microsoft’s Media Player versions.
Standard USB port connection, links both the homeowner’s PC and Music Server from anywhere in the house, through a “behind the walls� extender system using CAT-5, to USB cables at either end.
NuVo’s NV-M3 user interface on the front of the unit also leverages the same technology available on it’s Grand Concerto Control Pad counterpart. These technologies include; OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) display, Polycarbonate display surface and Capacitive Touch Technology.
