Integra has taken a lesson from ‘build-to-order’ computer manufacturers with its new top-of-the-line DTR-10.5 THX Ultra2, 7.1-channel, 150 watt home theater receiver. This receiver is unique in itsuse of removable card-based circuit modules to provide a wide range of features, performance, and connectivity options.
The DTR-10.5 and the first seven optional modules will be available in April. As new technologies appear on the market, Integra will develop new modules, with the first of these to debut in the fall of 2004.
Customers will work with their Integra dealer and an on-line configuration wizard to customize their own personal receiver. The dealer then places the order, and Integra will assemble and test the unit to be sent to the dealer.
