Cool idea but with 20ms of latency according to their website which will be on top of whatever your system is running at. Not that bad but may add up a little. It's still within the acceptable range I suppose.

I couldn't trust half the venues power sources where I've played though. I've seen how capacitive jobs flake out if there's grounding issues. Let's hope they have factored this in.

Also I noticed they were suggesting more home cinema etc when the rep was pushed. This is because you can add delays and it won't affect the enjoyment. that can't happen with live music.

Deffo get to test one out.

Fair point. I guess its still early days and its kinda still in development, it can only get better, I guess at this stage it will be handy for speakers that will be far away from your dj decks and probably for coctail hour in another room in a wedding setting.

Cocktail and second room stuff would be perfect, especially on a zone out like on the Prime 4.

I think it would be interesting to see just how tight they are. Maybe any delay isn't really that audible? It's possible.

I agree, I think they mentioned 20millisec delay at the moment.

like you said its perfect for speakers in other rooms

What if there are 2 adiacent rooms with two separate dj's who imput their signal in the outlets ?

good point.

Same concept of the power Line adapters for Lan data..
@DjSyndic8 he say that every receiver is paired with the transmitter,so(in theory)no problems to use with separate Dj\Musicians in the same build..Let's see for the price..

I agree

I saw this when I was at NAMM. I spoke to the rep and he said they introduced the consumer version last year and the pro audio version was released a fews weeks prior at CES. I was pretty impressed with the setup. They had DJs performing with the devices and they said they could not notice any latency. I meant to ask about price but totally forgot.

Niiiiice

Wow, this sounds really promising! If AudioCue can truly deliver low-latency, high-quality audio over power cables, this could be a game-changer for mobile DJs. No more running long XLRs or dealing with wireless dropouts? Count me in! 🎧🔥

That said, I’d love to know how it handles latency in a real-world DJ setup. Also, does it introduce any noise or interference in venues with sketchy power lines? 🤔

Only thing that I immediately thought of, having worked in a tech shop where we used to sell ethernet over power setups- for houses/smaller offices etc they were always fine.

Once you got to bigger places though, there'd be multiple seperate circuits with no connection to eachother so a wall socket on one side of a room may not actually be receiving the signal from another socket being used as an input.

Obviously not a super common occurrence and if you work regular venues as a mobile DJ you'd learn the limitations at each venue (and always carry backup XLRs or whatever you need)

Actually seems like it would a brilliant setup if they partnered with speaker manufacturers to integrate the units directly, so it just becomes as simple as "plug speaker into wall, flick switch to powerline mode, done"

Integrate a Tx unit into controllers/mixers so it can send back over the same cable powering it and it would be the quickest setup ever.

Lot of potential there, although I guess AlphaTheta will just push to integrate their wireless transmitters into their own hardware to keep the closed system in place.

(hadn't finished watching the linked video before he mentioned integrating the system into everything so it just worked directly before making that post)

For the record they're called Audio Cu, not AudioCue.
