HighFidelity wireless sound is not just for audiophiles anymore with Bluesound, a sleek series of audio solutions that offer the convenience of wireless without sacrificing high quality music. The company boasts true 24-bit HD digital audio for an unplugged world. Portable audio players have made listening to music easy and convenient with a wide breadth of choice in the palms of our hands – but the quality has suffered as records were replaced with CDs and then MP3s. With 4x the processing speed of other comparable systems, Bluesound allows you to access your music exactly when you want to hear it. With the right speakers, you can listen to 24-bit/192kHz studio master recordings in lossless FLAC format on all Bluesound systems. Their DirectDigital Amplifer by NAD electronics harnesses “the perfection of zero distortion, deeper bass, and texture clarity like no other system can deliver”. This is included in the Powernode, Pulse, and Duo.

It’s a well-known fact that when selling your home, making upgrades to specific areas such as the kitchen and bathrooms are among the most effective ways to profiting the most from the sale.
Along with these more “traditional” upgrades, however, homeowners should also consider adding certain technology updates to their homes to make them more tech-savvy and appealing to buyers. President of Soundworks Inc. Lou Gordon advises on his top tips for bringing your home into the 21st century and making it more attractive to potential buyers.
Automated Lighting. A little change in lighting can go a long way when it comes to selling your home. Not only does automated lighting improve home security by means of random timing systems and higher level of visibility, it also decreases energy consumption (and therefore the electric bill) by automatically shutting off when not in use.
Mood Lighting. The right lighting can tremendously improve and enhance a home environment, and even provoke specific moods! For example, bright lighting in an area such as the family room sets a cheerful and casual tone, while softer lighting in an area such as the master bedroom set the tone for relaxation and restfulness.
