LeisureTech Electronics, inventor of the popular A-BUS multi-room audio technology, announced that it has received official notification from the United States patent office that its application for A-BUS has been allowed. This means that the application for the patent on A-BUS will be granted and issued to LeisureTech sometime in early 2006. LeisureTech already holds patents for A-BUS in Australia and New Zealand and has several others pending around the world.
Andrew Goldfinch, founder of LeisureTech and co-inventor of A-BUS technology, comments, “This is very welcome news indeed, and it certainly reaffirms our belief that A-BUS is a truly compelling idea. For more than five years, LeisureTech and our partners have successfully marketed the many benefits of A-BUS technology throughout the world. Having a U.S. patent, will further strengthen the A-BUS platform as the standard for affordable multi-room audio.”
A-BUS is a unique, proven technology for multi-room audio that utilizes a single Category 5 cable to carry signal, data, IR, status, and power. This ingenious approach places the amplifiers closer to the speakers, enabling superior sound quality, increased flexibility, simpler installation, consumer-friendly operation, and greater affordability. A-BUS is currently licensed to more than fifteen leading manufacturers with various and diverse product offerings in the multi-room audio category. One of the key benefits to A-BUS is that it is virtually plug-and-play so that any A-BUS product will work with another, regardless of brand.
A-BUS technology, successfully utilized since 1998 and then launched worldwide in 2000, is quickly becoming the standard for affordable multiroom audio. A-BUS is the recipient of numerous industry awards and media acclaim for innovation and excellence.
