Great Way to update your systemBy JetEagle
from New Jersey on 07/27/2010Pros: well thought out design
Cons: manual could be better
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
The unit is a great upgrade and easy to install. The best part of the upgrade was the fact that the folks from Central Vacuum reviewed my order and called me to help go over my system before shipping. They made sure I had all of the right equipment to complete the job. It took less than a weekend to replace my old unit. The system performs better than my old system. Good product that looks good. The ability to charge my iPod while playing music through the system is a great design.
Nice SystemBy njtr1 from Northern NJ on 02/11/2013
Pros: Attractive Design, Good Audio, good value
Best Uses: Basic Systems, Multiple Rooms / Whole House
Describe Yourself: Tech Savvy
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I replaced an older system that had scratchy audio and wanted a new intercom. Installation was important to me because it was a retrofit to a 3 wire system and I was attracted by the trim plate mounting of this system. Also the fact that you use a menu to set up the system instead of hard switches was good to me as my older system has much static due to dust and noisy switch contacts throughout the system. Lastly I like the fact that you could plug an mp3 player right into the front of the unit and they left a space for it very nice. The master system is of high build quality and I am very pleased. The trim plate mounting was all I hoped it would be and very nice looking. The end stations so far seem of high build quality- solid switches and solid volume control. There is no static in the system at all so far and I am very happy about that. Installation was good the small push on connectors work well enough. It is very hard to hold the unit while also connecting all the cables. The manufacturer would do well to put a hinge or some kind of holder on the system so you could flip it down while working on the back. The speakers in this system are physically much smaller than the system it replaced, so the music is not as rich and deep sounding, but still sounds clear and crisp. My primary purpose is for intercom use and I could not be happier with the voice quality, much better than the older system. The features of this system are superior to the system it replaced, the hands free listen feature, the selective conversation feature, and the multiple source music selection are excellent features exceeding my expectations. I can listen to FM on some stations and MP3 on others, that was a nice surprise. I also like the look of the system and the set up options. It takes a bit of time to learn the set up menu's, but quite easy once you get it. It's only been a few days so far, but I am really pleased with this system and how much better it is from the older more known brand name unit I replaced. I never heard of this company before this purchase and I am glad I gave it a shot.
