STAR, the slender, single rack design exceeds energy
consumption standards while effectively supplying
40 watts of power to each zone, making sure you don’t
miss one beat or tone.

intuitive feedback, it’s never been so easy to change
selections and manage your system.

Essentia Features:
Seamless Integration
An open design frame equips Essentia for home
automation control, allowing you to easily
connect your audio distribution system to your
digital home.
What’s more, non-NuVo sources can be easily
integrated with full IR control and macro support.
Now listening to your CD changer is as easy
as picking up the remote. And NuVoNet
communication makes control of third party
partner systems possible over serial data
command.* Such simple control will make you
seek a more integrated approach for all your
home electronic systems.
*A variety of partner automation systems
manufacturers - home security, lighting, HVAC,
video, even some home networks - now have
plug-in options that allow the Essentia Control
Pad to operate these systems over a serial port
connection with the use of NuVo’s adapter.
The Complete Solution
A complete whole home audio system has never
been easier or more affordable! Essentia (E6G)
is now plug-and-play with all NuVo source
components. Integrate the system with any six
sources (M3, T2, NuVoDock) for a complete audio
system with little or no programming. Access
and control your iPod, satellite radio, and music
server from one central interface. That’s the
intuitive power of the Essentia Suite.
One elegant system. Multiple listening choices.
One happy family.
Home never sounded so good.
