Sony’s New S-AIRPLAY (AIR-SA20PK) for Apple iPod Players

Today Sony has unveiled its new wireless multi-room music system that’s designed for use with iPod Touch and other compatible iPod players. The new system is called S-AIRPLAY (AIR-SA20PK) and it uses S-Air technology.

The S-AIR Digital Wireless technology makes it easy to listen to music in multiple rooms, it gives you the ability to transmit sound to plug-and-play compact speakers from your iPod. You can send the audio to up to ten speakers.

Sony’s S-AIRPLAY also has dual source, multi-zone capability that will allow your dock to transmit separate signals to each AIR-SA15R receiver/speaker. This means you could have an AM/FM radio station playing in the kitchen, while your iPod music players on another speaker in the living room.

The composite audio/video out connection will let you display video content that’s on your iPod, onto your large screen TV. This Dock to a television will let you see the bigger picture much easier; you can also connect the dock to a home theater receiver.

The Sony AIR-SA20PK will be available in September, but Sony are now taking pre-orders on their website. The device will cost $400, and the additional S-Air wireless speakers will be priced at $130.
