High-quality digital sound at a music to your ears price

Press Release- 27 April 2012

Finally, high-quality digital sound at a price that will be music to your ears.

We have become a generation of digital sound users and with this have become ignorant to true sound quality. Some of you may remember the richness and soothing sound of a vinyl. Huddling around the record player and discussing the elaborate album art, it was a way of socialising and appreciating the arts pre the digital era.

Now it is all about convenience and quantity rather than quality, well it was until Cambridge Audio recently released their exciting new product aptly named Stream Magic 6. This world-class digital music hub delivers sensational quality digital music in a sexy, easy-to-use and highly affordable package. This is exactly what we have been missing, high-quality digital sound without having to re-mortgage the house.

Stream Magic 6 is the ideal addition for music lovers who not only demand network stored music in the highest quality, but also wish to unite other digital music sources like Internet radio and streaming services.

Easy to set up and operate wirelessly, Stream Magic 6 dramatically enhances digital music files stored on computers, network drives and pretty much any gadget with a digital audio out connection. Imagine your collection of original Michael Jackson CD’s sounding even better than they already do!

One of Stream Magic 6’s most exciting features is the iPhone or iPad app, Stream Magic remote that offers control of every feature. The design and layout of the app is intuitive to the users of today. Select music by album art or search for one of 20,000 online radio stations all from your iPhone or iPad.
