Directed Electronics has just shipped its next-gen Sirius home tuner that adds second-zone capability, integration with multiroom-audio systems, video outputs to display metadata on a TV and recording capability.

The SR-H1000 Sirius tuner has a retail price of $349.99 and with the addition of the optional SiriusConnect Home Tuner (SCH1 - about $49), the SR-H1000 can turn into a dual audio stream/zone tuner  - meaning that it's capable of receiving two different Sirius programs at one time.

Polk's SR-H1000 also features an Instant Replay feature which stores up to 44 minutes of audio for playback later.

Want to display channel, artist and song title metadata on your TV? Sure, just plug in the composite (RCA) video output. An Optical digital output allows the unit to be directly connected to audio components with digital inputs for lossless, pure performance. Stereo analog RCA-type outputs allow the SR-H1000 tuner to connect to any stereo receiver or amplifier. A built-in Digital to Analog Converter ensures that even analog connections have superior sound quality.

What's in the box: The SR-H1000 comes complete with rack mount ears for easy installation into equipment racks, RCA audio cables, Fiber Optic digital audio cable, remote control, and antenna.

Look for this sweet Sirius tuner at your favorite Sirius-dealer.
