Expanded Capabilities for Demanding Audio Setups
With native support for high-resolution sampling rates, the new multi-room implementation is engineered for the highest fidelity streaming to meet the standards of audiophile-grade performance. By building on the AES67 standard, it offers broader interoperability options with professional and residential networked audio environments, including the ability to integrate with other existing features.
“This next generation takes multi-room further, empowering our partners to deliver higher-resolution audio and adapt to applications ranging from premium residential setups to demanding professional audio environments,” said Markus Rutz, CTO of StreamUnlimited.
Key Advancements:
— Native High-Resolution Playback: Enables audiophile-grade playback with support for advanced sampling rates.
— AES67-Compatible: Allows integration with IP-based audio systems over Ethernet for broader interoperability.
— Ethernet and Wi-Fi Support: Supports flexible deployment across diverse network environments.
— Integrated into StreamSDK: Built on our comprehensive stack for simplified integration and faster time-to-market.
Designed for Versatile Applications
This generation of multi-room can be relevant not just for premium and high-end consumer audio setups, but also for commercial-grade use cases. Whether embedded in consumer devices, installed in commercial venues, or integrated into hybrid setups, it enables manufacturers to deliver intuitive, high-performance multi-room functionality.
Residential Use Cases
— Whole-Home Synchronization: Enable seamless music playback across multiple speakers or rooms, creating a unified audio experience throughout the home.
— Scene-Based Automation: Integrate with smart home systems to activate predefined audio scenes (e.g., “morning routine,” “movie night”) with specific source, volume, and zone configurations.
— App & Voice Assistant Integration: Seamlessly manage sources and zones via custom-branded apps or voice platforms for a user-friendly, hands-free experience.
Commercial & Public Spaces
— Independent Source Routing: Stream different audio content to distinct zones, ideal for commercial environments like spas, gyms, retail stores, cafés.
— Centralized Control with Local Override: Allow staff or users to control local playback, while keeping centralized management for brand consistency or scheduled content delivery.
Professional & Hybrid Installations
— Mixed-System Integration: Use AES67 compatibility to connect consumer-grade speakers with professional audio systems for hybrid applications, such as showrooms, AV systems, and studios.
— Custom Install Flexibility: Support complex configurations for CEDIA-grade smart homes or commercial AV installations, with full control over stream routing, priority, and synchronization.
