DTS' Play-Fi technology provides listeners with the freedom and
flexibility to stream their music wirelessly from smartphones,
tablets, laptops or desktop PCs over an existing home Wi-Fi network
to any number of connected speakers that incorporate the Play-Fi
technology throughout the home. The technology enables
uncompromised wireless audio streaming from the most popular music
services, Internet radio stations and personal music libraries on
any supported product.
"The European market for whole-home audio over Wi-Fi is ramping
up quickly, and we believe DTS Play-Fi technology will play a major
role in its adoption," said Jimmy
Chang, Managing Director of Aerix. "With our
Play-Fi-connected speakers, European consumers can experience their
favorite music anywhere in the home with lossless, high-fidelity
sound quality."
"According to GfK research, unit sales of multi-room systems in
Western Europe increased by 120%
in the first half of 2014, and we appreciate Aerix extending the
Play-Fi ecosystem into Europe,
furthering our mission to create the world's largest high-fidelity
wireless ecosystem of audio product manufacturers and content
service providers," said Dannie Lau,
general manager, Play-Fi Division, DTS, Inc. "DTS is delivering on
its promise to provide a variety of Play-Fi-connected audio
products that work seamlessly together for the enjoyment of music

Benefits of DTS' Play-Fi technology include:
- Multi-Room, Multi-Zone, Multi-User Listening Experience
– Connect multiple audio systems that incorporate Play-Fi into a
zone and enjoy music in every room of your home, perfectly
synchronized with no lag. Or create multiple zones and stream
different music to different rooms from the same device. Play-Fi
technology makes it possible for every user in the home to
simultaneously stream from different smartphones, tablets or PCs
that incorporate the Play-Fi software.
- Exceptional Sound Experience – Play-Fi wirelessly
transmits high-quality "lossless" audio, with no impact on sound
quality.
- Whole-Home Range – Play-Fi works everywhere your Wi-Fi
does, even if range extenders are used. It works over Ethernet,
Powerline, and other IP-based networking technologies, too. There
is no need for proprietary bridges or routers. Most homes already
have everything that is needed.

Anything. Control Everything – Stream from every music service
on the planet using Play-Fi drivers for Windows and Android.
