Product Research

Features

Overview: The Atlas A-BT is a wall-mounted Bluetooth input designed specifically for use with one of Atlas' Atmosphere Zone Master Signal Processors, like the AZM4 or AZM8 (both sold separately). The A-BT features NFC (Near Field Communication) pairing with a single press of the front panel Bluetooth Pair/Unpair button, letting you stream music from your Bluetooth-enabled device to an Atlas AZM audio processor, with up to 100' of wireless range. A front-panel LED will light blue to indicate pairing mode and green when a device is connected. A red LED denotes an error. The A-BT sums a stereo input signal to mono for transmission to the AZM processor.

Note: A CAT5e or CAT6 cable will be required for connection and is sold separately.

Connections: The A-BT connects to the host processor via a CAT 5e/6 cable (sold separately). The rear panel features two RJ-45 sockets, In and Out, allowing it to be "daisy-chained" together with additional Atlas Accessories, with a maximum cable distance of up to 1000'. Up to 8 Accessory devices can be connected to a single AZM processor port. All Atmosphere accessories are designed to be "plug-and-play", with AZM audio processors automatically detecting and assigning appropriate audio settings for that device when connected.

Specifications:

Bluetooth Version: 4.2
Audio Profile: A2DP
Pairing: NFC Tap-to-Pair
Wireless Range: Up to 100'
Maximum CAT5e/6 Cable Distance: Up to 1000' (last device in chain)

Audition speakers before you buy

SpeakerCompare simulates the sound of home and car speakers through your headphones. It lets you compare sonic characteristics between speakers so that you can make a more informed shopping decision.

Why selecting your headphones is important

SpeakerCompare tailors your listening experience to the exact headphones you have, so that what you hear is comparable to auditioning speakers side-by-side in person. Knowing which model headphones you’re using lets us remove any sonic coloring from your experience.

Two different listening modes

In an actual listening room, you'd find that some speakers play louder than others when fed the same amount of power. In equal power mode, you'll hear these differences in loudness as they naturally occur between speakers.

In equal volume mode, we've made the loudness of each speaker about the same. This gives you a more direct comparison of subtle voicing differences between speakers.

Nothing beats listening to speakers in your space

SpeakerCompare gives you a sense of the sonic differences. But performance in the real world is affected by the acoustics of your car or home, your choice of amplification, and your source material. We still believe that the gold standard for auditioning speakers is hearing them in your own environment — that’s why we offer a 60-day money-back guarantee.

Our Listening Kit

To help you choose the right speakers, we recommend using Crutchfield’s SpeakerCompare Listening Kit. It includes a pair of studio-quality headphones, and a guide to getting the most out of your session, and a few other necessary items. We’ve carefully chosen the components of this kit to ensure a crystal-clear listening experience. It’s available for a nominal rental fee, and includes a $25 Crutchfield merchandise credit.
