M&S Systems connects with DMC1,'the intercom with a difference' (12/8/2005)

The new generation of M&S Systems home intercom systems is the dawn of a whole new era of increasingly sophisticated intercom technology - a whole home music communication system capable of delivering quality sound - voice or music - to anywhere in the home.

That's right: in the home, because homes are a primary market for intercom systems. This is why M&S Systems - the leading designer and manufacturer of built-in home amenities - has developed the next generation of home intercom systems: the DMC1.

"Why would we replace our flagship intercom, the MC602? Because this new model has everything homebuilders, dealers, installers and their customers - the homeowners - want in an intercom," said Gary Baker, M&S Systems' director of sales and marketing. "Our new DMC1 intercom is a better fit for today's homes. It's smaller, with a more modern, elegant look to fit today's decor - and, of course, superb sound," Baker added.

The M&S Systems' DMC1 master intercom is a full 30 percent smaller than the previous model - and the room stations are even smaller. The small size and elegant style combine to make the intercom technology less obtrusive.

Better inside and out

"The new DMC1 offers every feature of the MC602 - and a lot more besides. Yes, the DMC1 intercom is a stylish addition to any home. But this change is more than appearance. It's what's inside the intercom that will excite homebuilders, dealers and installers - not to mention their customers," said Baker.

The DMC1 has an upgrade path to make it a stereo distributed audio system. Simply by adding an MC960PA power amplifier, your intercom can become a stereo music source, delivering stereo quality music from the radio or CD player to any room in the home.

Homeowners will also appreciate the DMC1's privacy feature: Just push one button and you can stop anyone else in the home from interrupting or monitoring a particular room.

Benefits to builders

The DMC1 also offers distinct advantages to homebuilders, dealers and installers. For example, the DMC1 features the updated technology of CAT5 wiring, the ratified standard for unshielded twisted pair wiring. CAT5 wiring improves performance by minimizing electrical interference and is compatible with today's most sophisticated home wiring needs. The DMC1 is designed with the installer in mind using quick wiring connectors to reduce installation time.

It is also easy to retrofit the DMC1 into existing intercom systems, thus making it easier to sell upgrades. And the price point of the DMC1 is reasonable, eliminating the customer's cost objection.

"So tell your customers to forget their preconceptions of intercoms. Now they can get all the advantages of a home intercom system - security, convenience, privacy, music - plus style and crystal-clear sound," said Baker.
