AudioCast, iCast Wirelessly Link iPod to Stereo

Soundcast Systems on Monday introduced iCast and AudioCast, a pair of products that wirelessly link an iPod to a stereo -- the former works only with the iPod while the latter is compatible with different types of MP3 players, computers, and other devices.

Each product features a transmitter that uses Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum technology to move around the 2.4GHz band and avoid interference with Bluetooth, 802.11 and other technologies that also use it. The iCast transmitter comes with inserts that accommodate different iPod models, while the receiver enables use of different iPod functions.

AudioCast features a 3.5mm mini-jack for plugging in an MP3 player, a computer, a portable CD player or other devices. It includes the required cables. It and iCast work with one or two transmitters, enabling users to beam music to multiple destinations.

Soundcast Systems will ship both products this month. iCast is US$299 for the transmitter and receiver, with each additional receiver selling for $129. AudioCast is $249 for the transmitter and receiver, with each additional receiver selling for $119. Product pages were not available on the company's Web site as iPodObserver.com posted this article.
