Technology and art are things that can go really good together, despite their seemingly perfect antagonism; and if you don't believe this, take a look at the latest speakers from Artcoustic and you'll see that it's true. Designed for those who are looking for the most artsy way to bring sound into a room, the Artcoustic loudspeakers are a very cool audio solution for your residence or office and one of its strongest cards is its almost unlimited customization capability.

 

The latest piece from Artcoustic is codenamed the Superstar and we're dealing with a lot more than a simple speaker: we're talking a whole music center here, destined to bring sound and visual pleasure to any room it might be installed in.

 

On the audio side, the Artcoustic Superstar is as simple as it gets, and it will allow you to use whatever sound source you might have: iPods and CD players, a line from your AVR and so on – you name it, the Superstar will have it play (that's why it's so "super"). And because things were intended to be dead-simple, you just plug in your audio source and hit play – and the rest will follow.

 

The Artcoustic Superstar can be used in stereo arrays producing a max of 106 dB at 1 meter SPL and 102 dB at 4 meters and it is suitable for all sorts of fixed installations in bars, pubs, restaurants, auditoriums or boardrooms. It comes with an optional cooling fan and can be perfectly used with a stereo amplifier providing up to 150W RMS in 8 Ohms. While sporting left and right RCA input terminals, this artsy music system has also been endowed with a Bang & Olufsen-ready DIN connector.

 

You also get an automatic on/off function, iPod USB charger and input sensitivity volume control and can be easily integrated in existing settings, in single-room or multi-room arrays running on AirPort Express, Archos, Sonos, Squeezebox, Bose or B&O cores. As far as the visual aspect of the Artcoustic Superstar is concerned, all you have to do is choose your favorite design from this amazing catalog and have this music system perfectly fit in your residence, office or pub. Still no word on pricing but nobody expects anything cheap, whatsoever.
