WIRED

By John Baumeister

Watch the Stars
Starglass and Starlift projections screens Not just another projection screen, Stewart Filmscreen's new Starglass and Starlift lines are limited only by your imagination. For creative commercial installations, have key advertisements or company messages on storefront windows, glass stairways, and even the flooring. When used with Stewarts' Starlift mechanism, architects and interior designers now have a completely new solution besides the conventional small flat panel display to create a large picture with minimal space. For more information go to www.stewartfilmscreen.com.


Get Floored
Electro-Kinetics remote controlled Television floor lifts Electro-Kinetics remote controlled floor lifts for displays offer a creative solution to the standard “plasma over the mantel” dilemma. Using their remotes or integrated to a whole house control system, the plasma raises from the floor to the desired viewing height. Push another button and the unit will swivel 360 degrees for watching anywhere in the room. With Electro-Kinetics’s own system logic, the lift will not go down if rotated off from center. To see the complete line of display lifts go to their website at www.electrokinetics.com.


Raising the Bar
The Polk Audio SurroundBar The Polk Audio SurroundBar allows you to enjoy the thrill of 5-channel sound from a single elegantly-designed speaker. Whether placed under a television monitor or mounted on the wall, SurrondBar is the perfect match for flat-panel and shallow-screen monitors. Listeners will be amazed at the sound quality. Polk’s Stereo Dimensional Array (SDA) technology provides a mixture of acoustical engineering, psychoacoustic principles and technology magic. The product is available in 42 and 50 inch models and comes in two finishes, black and titanium. Check out the SurroundBar web site at surroundbar.polkaudio.com/ for complete information.
