Overview

W.H.E.N.™ A/V Receiver Multizone System Controller

Flexible... Expandable... Distributed Audio, Paging Intercom, Audio/Video Monitoring, Home Theater and Whole-House Entertainment made simple.

Add keypads in any room (up to 20) - Access any audio / video equipment connected to your W.H.E.N Theater Receiver - No longer will you need separate theater, multi-room audio, and intercom systems. The W.H.E.N system is your all-in-one solution.

A DVD downstairs in the home theater. A kid’s classic, cable news and MTV in the upstairs bedrooms. iPod® tunes in the kitchen and jazz radio out on the deck. A whole house full of entertainment, all at the same time, all from the same system. The Whole-House Entertainment Network™(W.H.E.N.) can stream up to eight different entertainment sources (including up to six video sources) to a home theater and as many as 20 additional rooms simultaneously. It also improves communications between all of those rooms, with state-of-the-art paging and audio/video monitoring. Built around the world’s first 7.1 A/V receiver with an integrated multiroom/multizone controller, W.H.E.N. systems use advanced digital signal transfer technology and local amplification to distribute high-quality audio to the farthest reaches of even the largest houses. Video signals are also distributed to any TV in the home.

AVR21EN Key Features
The centerpiece of every W.H.E.N. system is the Audioaccess AVR21EN, a high performance surround receiver that incorporates exciting new technologies from Audioaccess to enhance the wholehouse and home theater experience. It features a cutting-edge digital amplifier design and every popular surround sound processing technology, including Dolby® Pro Logic® IIx, DTS Neo:6® and Logic 7.® Furthermore, the patented EzSet equalization technology makes fine-tuning the system to the particular acoustic needs of the listening space virtually automatic.

Outstanding audio, and DCDi by Faroudja® video
Audioaccess has been producing premium quality custom audio systems for more than 20 years. The AVR21EN continues that tradition and extends it to the world of home theater and video. In addition to its comprehensive sound-processing capabilities, the AVR21EN includes DCDi by Faroudja video-processing technology. The award-winning DCDi by Faroudja codec effectively “upconverts” standard definition video pictures to the HDTV format (to 1080i via an HDMI™ output), enhancing viewer enjoyment and extending the useful life of existing DVD libraries.

Unprecedented Control
Control up to six external A/V sources and two internal AM/FM tuners, and two-way remote routing of composite video and digital audio and control signals. The system extends audio signals throughout the home by using a proprietary Digital Signal Transfer bus. As the first 7.1-channel receiver with an onboard multizone system controller, the AVR21EN doesn’t just provide outstanding A/V performance – it reduces system complexity and improves ease of use. With intuitive on-screen programming and a built-in library of IR codes, the AVR21EN can be set up to control a variety of components and whole-house features – without the use of a PC..

KP21 Amplified Keypad (Room Controls) - Add up to 20

 

View Adock Add-On

Have full access to any Audio / Video Source Connected to your System. By adding the proper number of AVH21 8 Room Distribution Modules, this system can support up to 20 Room Keypads.

KP21 keypads are also the industry’s most-powerful keypad amplifiers. Each keypad delivers 50 watts per channel of local power, eliminating long speaker runs and the signal loss that goes with them. With preamplifier outputs and source inputs, the keypads can connect a local source such as an iPod and also allow easy connection of a subwoofer for extra bass and party volume.

Distributed entertainment systems rely on the usability of their remote keypads, and Audioaccess has always had the best in the business. W.H.E.N. KP21 display keypads set a new standard of functionality, with separate modes for entertainment, paging and audio/video monitoring.

Entertainment Mode
Select “Entertain” on the main menu and take control of two AM/FM tuners and up to six A/V sources. A simple on-screen menu for each device includes up to eight commands, and displays status information from the radio tuners, your iPod and select satellite radio tuners. To turn on multiple rooms with one touch, just press “Party.”
Paging Mode
Select “Paging” to activate a sophisticated whole-house communications system. Speak to a specific room, a group of rooms or the entire household through system loudspeakers. Paged rooms can answer back through the KP21’s built-in microphone.
Audio and Video "Monitoring" Mode
Select “Monitor” to listen in on a baby’s room, or to check the output from up to seven security cameras on the local TV in any room.
Additional Functions
Wake or fall asleep to any entertainment source. Remotely unlock up to two electronic door locks. Customize the menu names for any room or source in the system. With an IR receiver for remote operation anywhere in a room and independent control of bass, treble and EQ settings, KP21 keypads give users intuitive control of even elaborate W.H.E.N. infotainment systems, yet they fit standard two-gang electrical boxes.
