CES 2007: ZVOX's 425 wall-mount single-cabinet surround sound system
There’s no use in having all these fancy-schmanzy HDTVs if you don’t have adequate speakers for your home cinema get-up. Enter ZVOX, who are showing off the World’s first full-range single-cabinet wall-mountable surround sound system, the 425. It’s only 5 inches deep, so unlike the predecessor the 325, it’s quite slim, but has the added oomph of combining five speakers, a powerful amplifier, two subwoofers, and finally ZVOX’s exclusive PhaseCue circuitry, allowing for ‘remarkable, three-dimensional virtual surround sound effects’. It measures just 37”w x 7”h x 5”d, an amazing feat for something so powerful, and will be available around Summer 2007 for approximately $599.99.
