The Veoh Web Player combined with SanDisk Cruzer USB flash drives provides users with a broad selection of video content on Veoh.com and the power of a peer-to-peer client in a single portable and password-protected application. With the Veoh Web Player’s Library and Import features, users can easily manage their personal video collection, both online and offline. When permitted by the publisher, users can schedule downloads of videos to their library to watch later or at another location. U3™ Smart technology, which was developed by SanDisk, allows applications to run from a SanDisk Cruzer USB flash drive, without having to be installed on a computer.
The Veoh Web Player and SanDisk Cruzer USB flash drive offer enhanced security features as well. Password protection on SanDisk Cruzer USB flash drives prevent unauthorized access to personal video files in case the drive is lost or stolen. And since U3 Smart technology doesn’t require a separate video application to be installed, users can enjoy video content without leaving any traces on the host PC.
“The Veoh Web Player is a perfect companion for SanDisk’s Cruzer USB flash drives because our customers often want to watch videos when they’re away from home and it often isn’t possible to install software on the computer itself,” said Yaniv Lavi, Director of Product Marketing for the consumer retail business unit at SanDisk. “Our SanDisk Cruzer USB Drives are ideal for watching and downloading videos because they come in capacities of up to 16GB1, are technologically capable of streaming high definition content and come equipped with security features that help protect user privacy.”
“SanDisk’s reputation for innovation in flash storage devices and portable applications makes them the ideal distribution partner to make Veoh’s extensive Internet video services more portable for our viewers,” said Joshua Metzger, Senior Vice President of Corporate Development for Veoh Networks. “SanDisk Cruzer USB flash drives are ideal for video and Veoh.com users. This partnership puts Veoh in their pocket – so videos are ready to enjoy whenever and wherever they plug in.”
Users who previously purchased SanDisk Cruzer® USB flash drives can download the Veoh Web Player onto their drives for free by visiting www.sandisk.com/veoh or by accessing the SanDisk Cruzer Program Wizard of the U3 Launch pad. More information on U3 is available at www.sandisk.com/U3.
The new Madrid Cabinet in Natural Cherry finish
The Madrid is a sleek, fully assembled triple-wide cabinet whose clean, minimalist lines recall the strong modern design influences so compelling in mid-twentieth century furnishings. Its contemporary design will appeal to customers looking for a simple, sophisticated solution to their A/V needs that also complements their décor.
Designed, engineered and manufactured by a company on the forefront of the industry, the Madrid is unique in the depth and breadth of its features. For example, it provides ample storage for TVs plus up to five other components (including a center-channel speaker), a pull-out drawer for DVDs and CDs, easy accessibility, good ventilation, adjustable shelves, raceways for concealing and managing wires, and easy compatibility with IR remotes. The understated wood base conceals non-marking casters that make Madrid easy to install, move, service and clean.
The Madrid is also a model of quality construction. Measuring 70 inches wide by 22 inches high by 20.25 inches deep, the cabinet presents three compartments accessible using sliding bypass doors with warm, bronze-tinted glass panels that permit IR signals to pass through to the A/V components inside. Each unit comes with a classic Natural Cherry finish, or a more Euro-contemporary Wenge finish on open-grain oak veneer. The adjustable shelves each support 50 lbs. and the wood top supports up to 250 lbs., making it a practical choice for virtually all components. Sliding rear panels provide easy access to components from the back.
The Madrid is available now in Natural Cherry from Salamander Designs dealers at a suggested price of $1,499. It will be available in Wenge later this year.

Ingenium Silver, Teresonic’s new range of loudspeakers, with pure sound of pure silver that can evoke the warmth and emotion of a live musical performance.
“The Silver edition provides all of the traditional Ingenium advantages - sonic clarity, coherence, and dynamics - while pushing the sonic qualities even further with pure silver coil drivers,” says Mike Zivkovic, president of Teresonic. “This combination of lifelike sound quality, extreme efficiency, and on-site tuning ability makes Ingenium Silver a truly unique offering for high-end audio systems.”
Ingenium Silver (available online at http://www.teresonic.com) also includes an adjustable driver system to accommodate a wide choice of famous Lowther 8-inch drivers for a variety of tuning possibilities. On-site driver replacement makes it possible for users to easily fine-tune their system to match different electronic components and room acoustics.
“Most speakers are designed for a specific driver, forcing audiophiles to swap the entire speaker in order to match their systems and sound preferences,” says Zivkovic. “The Ingenium Silver changes that, allowing users to swap drivers that will match their system, room acoustics, and their hearing.”
Unique architecture and geometry enables Ingenium to produce the most natural sound possible. Every sound source radiates sound waves from a single “point” – whether it’s a violin, a trumpet, or a human voice. Teresonic speakers follow this design rule with one-way design, using full-range, high-efficiency Lowther drivers – translating the model of a theoretically perfect singular acoustic source to create a startling sonic performance. Avoiding use of crossovers in Teresonic speakers results in natural sound, with a wealth of detail, exceptional dynamic range and a sense of musical “aliveness” not found elsewhere.
Sculpted like the finest musical instruments and individually handcrafted, Ingenium Silver speakers retail for $11,980 per pair with a DX3 driver, and $14,480 with DX4. Customers get a 30-day Total Satisfaction Guarantee and a full three-year warranty. Specifications include 101.5dB (1W/1kHz/1m) for DX3 and 103dB for DX4 driver, bandwidth of 30Hz-22kHz ± 3dB, and power handling of 2 - 100 Watts into 8 Ohms nominal impedance.
“With the Ingenium Silver, you experience all the textures and harmonics of live music. They let you hear how the decay of instruments and acoustical environments sound,” says Jack Roberts of Dagogo.com. “The music blooms and feels much more like real music. The whole listening experience becomes about the sounds and feelings of the music in a way that transcends an electronic listening experience.”
