The Juke Story

Built by the consumer for the consumer

The product was born out of the founders’ own home audio needs. After scouring the internet, it became clear that everything on the home audio market for powering ceiling and wall speakers was either overly complicated and/or overpriced. We confronted this issue by constructing what eventually would become Juke; a product built by the consumer for the consumer. With an affordable price, quick installation process, and simple user interface, Juke is a whole home audio solution filling a void in the marketplace.

The Juke Product

Juke Audio is a Los Angeles based manufacturer and designer of multi-room amplifiers with wireless streaming capabilities. At the size of a textbook, our product makes it so users can play audio to wired ceiling and wall speakers throughout every room of their home seamlessly. While this concept is not entirely new, the ability to use one amplifier to power 6 or 8 zones (depending on the model) and control each of the zones via a proprietary wireless software interface is extremely unique.

Testimonials

I love Juke. Super easy as I am a dummy about that kind of stuff. Music is powerful. It’s emotional and stimulates the senses. Having Juke is the BEST!!! Right at my FINGERTIPS.

It was easy to access and enabled me to play my library with no issue. On Thursday, Mac (our 16 yr old) wasn’t digging my music so he connected easily and DJ’d throughout the day. Very cool.

The Juke experience has been great so far!! I loved the setup-we had it up and running in about 15 mins!! The product does exactly what it says it does, and that is a big deal. I really enjoy how easy it is to switch between zones without any delay. This product is exactly what I was looking for

- Phil, Wilton, CT

The family is rocking out! The system works great and the speakers sound better than ever!

— Eric, Los Angeles, CA

I hooked up 2 zones in about 15 minutes or so, and the instructions on operating it couldn’t have been easier. I had music playing in about 3 minutes once I turned it on. I didn’t realize until now that you don’t even need an app. Audio quality is great. Your product is so much better and simpler to use.

Frequently asked questions

What speakers do you recommend?

Juke is quite flexible in terms of the speakers we support. However, one company we have found great success with is MSE Audio. If you would like specific speaker recommendations based on your setup please send us an email at email@jukeaudio.comJuke is capable of powering speakers with impedance between 2 and 8 Ohms, with 4 to 8 Ohms being typical. Most ceiling/wall/landscape speakers will work well. Juke can take any speaker wires between 12 and 22 gauge.

How do I play audio from my TV to Juke?

The most seamless option would be to utilize an Apple TV to send the audio wirelessly over Airplay to Juke in the same way you would from your phone/tablet. Our latest firmware has perfect audio to video synchronization aka lip sync.Another options is to get a separate sound bar or surround sound receiver for a main media room or theater. If it Airplay 2 enabled then you’ll be able to stream to Juke and it from your phone in unison.

How do you connect an analog device as an input to Juke?

Juke has two USB ports, so it is capable of supporting up to two devices that provide line-level analog signals (e.g. line-out from a surround-sound receiver, CD players, Bluetooth adapter). In order to utilize this USB input we require the purchase of this adapter: USB 2.0 Audio Capture Card

Is Juke compatible with Android?

Yes. Android users can connect to Juke in three different ways:1. Spotify Connect – Just as seamless as Airplay from an iPhone but you are limited to Spotify streaming.2. Double Twist Pro and AirMusic – Both of these apps have the major streaming services and music library options embedded into them and allow Android users to stream to Juke.3. Use an audiocast and plug it into the USB port on Juke to stream a wide array of sources via Chromecast. It will also require the USB to RCA adapter.

What do I do if my house has wall panels installed from an older system?

Nothing is needed to be done with them. Either bypass them, or just set them a full volume. You can control the volume and which zones are on or off via Juke’s interface.
