BTX Technologies has been named the U.S. distributor of the Soundog audio system. Manufactured by Sprox, the Soundog system consists of a four-, six-, or eight-channel transmitter and wireless tabletop speakers. Designed for restaurant and sports bar applications, Soundog allows patrons to hear audio from any of the video displays stationed around the establishment.

Employing a long-range frequency, the Soundog speaker allows customers to audio surf through up to eight programs. The customer controls the volume using digital pushbuttons and an on/off volume control on a handheld unit. The digital eight-channel transmitter, which broadcasts sound over a low FM frequency, does not interfere with other wireless devices. Soundog works with any SD or HD cable or satellite receiver, including DIRECTV. The system runs for a minimum of 16 hours on a single charge and recharges overnight on a wall-mounted charging station called the DogHouse.

BTX will offer live demos of Soundog at the upcoming InfoComm 2008 show.
