Hi Jonathon
I to have been on this quest but without much
joy.
So if anyone out
there has some good suggestions: bring em
on!
So far I have concluded that the only real
solution would be to use:
A custom made or proprietary (I.e Leopard.)
touch
screen. You could use
ACE or one of the other PC control packages
for
the interface.
An IR based unit such as the SMART pads from
Xantech. (Very customisable
in terms of buttons.)
Both of these are expensive though. I still
LOVE
the wall panels
supplied by Polaron lighting I know they work
off
RS232, if we could
find their supplier (As I'm certain they don't
make them as I've seen
them used in other bespoke systems.) and
someone
could write the
interface between them and say
Comfort/HomeVision
then that would be one
hell of a bulk buy...come on Tony our resident
bulk buy pimp!
Many Thanks
Rob

As your talking about keypads, is there anyway
that these can be
interfaced
into a pc ?? - as I think they look quite
neat...
Or does anyone do a type of keypad that can be
interfaced to a pc ?
Whatabout any form of wall-mounted display /
button thing so the volume
/
source can be changed without using the remote
?
Any idea's / url's welcome ..
Jonathan "still
learning..."

Yep I noticed the similarities with the
Russound
keypads. They tell me
though that this is where the similarities
end!
Many Thanks

Rob,
I feared as much regarding pricing - out of my
league :-( . Is is a
"Russound" product as they appear to
use
the same name for their keypads
i.e. "A-Bus".
It looks like the "Kustom" system
will
remain at the top of my list for
now,
even if the keypads aren't as
pretty.
Cheers,
Tim H.

Hi
I had a look at this a while ago before it was
officially launched. Opus
is actually owned by the Richer Sounds Group.
Somewhere at home I have
the product brochure and pricing but it is
EXPENSIVE. Getting on for
£2500 for a 4 room system and then another
£800+ a
room. Don't forget
you still then need sources and speakers. NOT
cheap as I say. IMO if
you've got this much to spend have a look a
QED
Systemline first its as
good and more established. However the wall
panels
are not as pretty I
agree.
If you want me to find that contact name and
prices I can dig it out.
Many Thanks
Rob

Love it, particularly the way it looks. It
seems a
shame to hide it all
away.
Any idea of prices / distributors
?
Also, quoting from their site:
"To connect these components together a
specially developed balanced
transmission cable is used, which, unlike most
multi room systems,
requires
only a single run of cable to carry audio,
data
and power to and from
each
zone."
Cat5 I assume. Interesting description though,
perhaps a way of
attempting
to justify the price of the system
?
