WiFi Audio; the successor to Bluetooth
Bluetooth audio has proven itself for years when it comes to reliable sound transmission in the kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. Every SmartPhone / iPhone is equipped with it and nearly everyone knows how to stream sound with it.
WiFi-Audio is 'The Next Generation' and gives streaming a new dimension. Without distance restrictions, without loss of quality. The range is even greater (than with Bluetooth) and more stable as well. All WiFi-audio* speakers that are included in your home network can be directly accessed with your SmartPhone. Apple users can stream directly via Airplay. For Android users we have a nifty app that clearly displays one or more WiFi-audio speakers in the screen. Select and play. Reliable, easy and very stable.

Choose Medium or go Large
Choose the WiFi audio system that best suits you. Every system has its own unique characteristics. Choose Medium for a good sound reproduction, with a good range in the low and high tones.
