Kleer's technology enables Jet Stream users to enjoy wireless audio quality that is equivalent to a wired player. Unlike Bluetooth technology, which uses lossy audio compression solutions that severely impact audio quality, Kleer uses lossless transmission of 16-bit, 44.1KHz-sampled stereo audio. Lossless transmission also enables the 'beaming' of music or other data files from one player to another. Kleer's lossless transmission, combined with best-in-class 2.4GHz band co-existence, provides a far superior audio quality than a comparable Bluetooth solution.

"We applaud RCA for being the first to bring to market a player that addresses what workout enthusiasts are reporting as the most annoying part of using a digital music player while exercising…the wires," says Levent Gun, President and CEO of Kleer. "We're proud to provide RCA with the enabling technology to help them hit the ground running with what we believe will be a significant breakthrough in the wireless mp3 player market. Everyone knows that active consumers want an easy answer for wireless workouts. With the incorporation of Kleer's wireless technology, RCA and Kleer are able to deliver high quality music without the hassle of tangled wires."

More About Kleer's Wireless Technology
Kleer's wireless audio technology combines high quality audio, low power consumption and robust ISM band coexistence, to address the full range of audio market segments.
