Play your music
Audiolab's new 7000 series has high expectations to deliver. After all, the previous generation of products, the Audiolab 6000 series, has probably won more awards in the UK press over the last five years than any other range of high performance audio electronics!
The new 7000N Play builds on that legacy from the introduction of wireless audio streaming with enhancements to enable the transition from the established 6000 Series to the new class-leading 7000 Series .
Bringing high-resolution wireless audio streaming to any home audio system, the 7000N Play further expands the multi-format, multi-platform, multi-source compatible DTS Play-Fi system, now with Apple AirPlay 2 compatibility. Thanks to DTS Play-Fi® technology, music can be streamed over the wireless network in high-resolution format and can easily be expanded to a multi-room system if required. You can stream from any source on your wireless network, including your smartphone, tablet or PC, as well as a NAS drive.
