Benefits of a common synchronization protocol

End users

Today’s user of mobile devices probably uses a dif- ferent synchronization product with every device. Each technology can synchronize only a few appli- cations, or is limited to a particular type of network connection. This arrangement is expensive to install, confusing to configure and operate, and costly to administer. With SyncML, users will be able to buy devices that synchronize with a broader range of data.

Device manufacturers

Device manufacturers will benefit from a common protocol that will make the device interoperable with a broader range of applications, services, and network and transmission technologies.

Service providers

Service providers moving into the growth area of application hosting are particularly concerned that a proliferation of synchronization technologies will

make it impossible to deploy and support their cus- tomers in a cost-effective manner. To support the range of data types and devices in use today, serv- ice providers must install and configure multiple server infrastructures, maintain and support that infrastructure, and maintain compatibility and per- formance. The alternative now available, to use a single solution for data connectivity, involves the risk of a tight coupling to a propriety solution. With SyncML, they will be able to provide connectivity to a wider selection of applications.

Application developers

Choosing to support multiple synchronization tech- nologies enables an application to support more types of devices and networked data, but that choice comes at a cost. With SyncML, application developers will be able to develop an application that can connect to a more diverse set of devices and network data.

Z600 specifications

The Tannoy Z600 is a remarkable loudspeaker that embodies the company’s commitment to high-performance audio, blending classic craftsmanship with innovative technologies. Designed for both professional and home listening environments, the Z600 serves as an exemplary model in Tannoy’s extensive range of audio solutions.

One of the standout features of the Z600 is its dual-concentric driver design. This technology has been a hallmark of Tannoy's engineering for decades, ensuring that sound is emitted from a single point source. This results in an incredibly coherent soundstage with exceptional imaging, allowing listeners to experience audio with a sense of depth and clarity that is often absent in traditional speaker designs.

The Z600 further enhances its audio reproduction capabilities through the use of high-quality drivers. It houses a 6.5-inch bass driver paired with a 1-inch high-frequency driver. The combination enables the speaker to handle a wide frequency range, delivering rich bass tones while maintaining crystal clear highs. The speaker's crossover design is meticulously crafted to ensure seamless integration between the bass and treble drivers, which contributes to a balanced and natural sound signature.

Equipped with a robust MDF cabinet, the Z600 is designed to minimize unwanted resonances and provide a solid base for sound reproduction. The cabinet's architecture is complemented by a stylish finish, available in various veneers, allowing it to blend well with any modern or classic décor.

Installation options are versatile, featuring bi-wiring capabilities that enhance the speaker's performance. This feature allows for separate connections to the bass and treble drivers, optimizing audio quality and enabling advanced customization based on user preference.

Another notable characteristic of the Tannoy Z600 is its wide dispersion pattern. This attribute ensures that sound remains consistent and clear even when listening from different positions in the room. This makes the Z600 an excellent choice for both casual listening and critical monitoring in professional setups.

With its combination of innovative technologies, premium materials, and expert craftsmanship, the Tannoy Z600 stands out as a top-tier choice for audio enthusiasts. Whether for home entertainment or studio monitoring, it offers a listening experience that is both engaging and immersive, making it a worthy addition to any audio system.
