"Proof you needn’t spend loads to acquaint your system with great-sounding streaming."

 

Audiolab 6000N Play is a wireless streaming player and the newest in the celebrated 6000 component range containing DTS Play-Fi to stream music over network in high-res. It can be expanded to multi-room and you can stream from any source on the network including smart devices, PC/MACs or tablets as well as NAS Drive.

 

Sound of Science

Unlike its costlier, analogue-only sibling, 600N utilises high-quality D/A conversion, permitting digital sources to be linked directly with no external DAC. The isolated power supply is the same as that used in the award-winning 6000CDT CD transport. It hosts digital and analogue outputs plus wireless connectivity. Wired Ethernet connection is available for apps requiring high bandwidth.

 

Digital Circuitry

Much effort is expended in the physical layout of 6000N’s circuitry to deliver the quality that would be expected of a top-performance standalone DAC. The ES9018 Sabre32 Reference chip family is employed for D/A conversion, utilising 32bit HyperStream structure and Jitter Eliminator to produce super-low noise and superior dynamic range. The degree of acoustic expression mined by this chip from the digital signal is captivating.

 

DTS Play-Fi App

On top of supporting 24 bit/ 192kHz high-res, multi-room and DLNA wireless streaming from networked devices, the purpose-built app grants direct access to popular streaming services such as Amazon Music, HD Tracks, Spotify, Tidal, Deezer and Sirius XM.

 

Wi-Fi Technology

DTS Play-Fi organizes music streaming through standard Wi-Fi networks, ensuring perfect audio synchronization, without delays and without loss of sound quality. It is fully compatible with all Apple iOS, Android, Windows PC and Fire operating systems.

 

Direct Streaming

The 6000N Play is configured and operated via the Play-Fi app, available for iOS, Android and Kindle Fire phones and tablets, as well as Apple and Android smartwatches and Windows PCs. It can also stream directly from Spotify via Spotify Connect, and is DLNA and UPnP compliant. There are minimal controls on the component itself - just the standby button and a set of six’ preset’ buttons. These presets operate exactly like those on a DAB or FM tuner; simply select an internet radio station, or a playlist from a compatible streaming service, and store it as a preset for speedy access - no app required.

This operational simplicity, coupled to Play-Fi’s versatility, is key to the 6000N Play’s appeal. For some, it is the perfect way to stream music from the likes of Spotify, Tidal and Deezer, with all the additional functionality of Play-Fi including multi-room audio. For others, it is simply the best way of adding radio to their hi-fi system, with the huge choice of stations available via the internet - the traditional hi-fi’tuner’component, reinvented for the streaming age.
