Soundavo announces a pair of compact-size amplifiers-- the PSA-240 and the PSA-240NET-- both featuring a a half-rack 1U chassis and able to provide 120W of power per channel at 4 or 8 ohms.

Customers can bridge the amplifiers to supply up to 240W RMS. In bridged mode, the amplifier can drive high impedance speaker lines with up to 240W for 70V or 100V loads without need for a separate transformer. The PSA-240NET adds PoE digital audio networking, allowing it to receive audio from Dante-enabled devices over standard local area networking, allowing for decentralised audio distribution through a home or building.

Lilin announces a line of H.265 security cameras featuring the Sony Superior Star Light sensor to provide improved low-light and night vision performance, with either 1080p or 5MP resolution.

Available from Invision in a range of chassis options, including Turret, Dome and Bullet forms, the cameras can make part of a sophisticated security installation. They include Smart Alarms, giving installers the option to add conditions such as triggering relays, motion detection with customised areas, face detection, object counting, alarm/network and audio detection. Installers can then action the cameras to push notifications, record on SD card or NVR and trigger relays, among other functions.

The 2020 LG TV lineup starts rolling out, with the first models being 14 OLED offerings, including the "art-inspired" GX Gallery series, the "real 8K" ZX models and 4K UHD TVs.

The LG 2020 premium TVs promise to seamlessly integrate in any space while providing the best viewing experience through self-emissive display technology. The three GX Gallery series models (55-, 65- and 77-inch) feature a minimalist aesthetic, since backlight-free OLED technology allows for TVs just 20mm thin without need for a separate control box. As a result, the TV mounts flush to the wall akin to a piece of art in a gallery.

Integra and Onkyo announce firmware updates allowing select products to work with Sonos, allowing users to control receiver volume through the Sonos app on smartphone or other devices.

The firmware update enables select Integra Onkyo and Pioneer ELITE receivers to utilise Sonos volume passthrough capabilities. As a result, users no longer need preset volume levels on the receiver or worry about issues related to multiple volume controls. It also allows volume control from anywhere in the house.

Legrand announces On-Q enhanced plastic wiring media enclosures for wired and wireless low-voltage systems. The plastic enclosures feature a reversible hinged door with toolless installation, free integrated trim ring and added structural rigidity.

Besides the trim ring for concealing imperfections in drywall, the On-q enclosures have a unique hinge design the company says allows the door to snap quickly into and out of the trim ring for faster installation without tools. The hinge is also reversible, meaning it can swing left or right within a 180-degree range to maximise installation space.
