Digi-5 allows for full digital audio transmission over Category 5 cabling, the standard cabling used for most home networks. Because Cat 5 cable typically is less expensive per foot compared to 16/4 speaker wire, the most common speaker wire, the company says builders can wire a multi-room audio distribution system for roughly half the cost of a 16/4 installation. Digi-5 also promises 30-watt audio, whereas some of the other competing audio distribution systems run at about 10 watts. 818-362-0353. www.xantech.com.
