CasaTools has announced a pair of new whole home audio systems. The two new systems support Windows Media Center and use the same DVD-audio quality PCIe soundcard. The soundcard installs into a PC to send the music over the home network.

The sound card will plug into almost any PC. The CasaTunes XLa or other amp can be connected to the CasaTunes Xli system, music can be sent to 6 different rooms, and five separate sources of music can be listened to. Four of the sources are internal Windows like Media Player, Internet Radio and so on. An external USB connected iPod or XM Tuner can be used as well. The larger CasaTunes XLe can send music to 12 different rooms.

"As the Microsoft Media Center continues to grow in popularity, more households are asking for an integrated whole house audio distribution solution," said David Krinker, CEO of CasaTools. "CasaTunes was developed to plug n' play with Microsoft Windows Media Center and PC environments easily for a multi-source, multi-room music system with a single click from a PC, a TV remote or touchpad."
