Soundcast Systems OutCast Junior
Wireless technology gives consumers the chance to receive music from an iPod indoors and outdoors, in fair weather and foul.
High-quality ‘breakthrough’ wireless transmission from digital music players or personal computers to any room in the house – or even outdoors – is now possible.
LeisureTech Electronics, the Australian distributor of Soundcast Systems, says SpeakerCast uses wireless technology to receive music from an iPod placed in the included Soundcast iCast wireless dock.

Its sister product, OutCast, is an all-weather battery/AC operated wireless speaker system for outdoor use. It includes the Soundcast iCast wireless dock.
“There have been hundreds of wireless products developed over the years claiming to deliver an impressive quality of sound,” Soundcast says.
“But all of them have fallen short of that promise due to their innate susceptibility to interference, which can significantly degrade the audio quality to the point where the music is not audible.”
With plug and play installation, the two products can link music resources to a distant location.
Each speaker system is self-contained with internal amplification, full-range speaker complements and the Soundcast receiver.
Soundcast says the products eliminate interference caused by household devices sharing the crowded 2.4GHz band, such as microwave ovens and cordless phones.
OutCast features an eight-inch downward-firing woofer, four three-inch high-frequency drivers in an omni-directional array, a 100W digital amplifier and the Soundcast receiver.
It is made of water-resistant plastic and is designed to operate for up to 10 hours on the built-in rechargeable battery pack. It has an internal AC power supply that can recharge the NiMH battery pack and operate the OutCast at the same time.
Soundcast is now also distributing the OutCast Junior.
