Cambridge Audio is celebrating two milestones in 2021: the 10th anniversary of its StreamMagic platform, and the fact that 100,000 individual units that use the StreamMagic module have now been sold. StreamMagic is the clever combination of hardware and software that sits at the heart of Cambridge Audio’s network audio players (such as Evo, CXN V2 and Edge NQ), and allows listeners to play digital music from anywhere.
StreamMagic brought an integrated approach to connected audio sources, for users to listen to streaming services, send songs from their mobile devices via AirPlay or Chromecast built-in, or just browsing a NAS drive with a mixture of audio file types from AAC to DSD, StreamMagic can do it all.
Originating with the NP30 network player back in 2011, the British audio company designed and engineered the powerful StreamMagic module from the ground up. The complementary StreamMagic app – available for Android and iOS devices – is the control extension for all Cambridge Audio streaming products, giving users fast access to devices, playlists, Internet radio and more.
Now in its 4th generation, the StreamMagic module (a Quad core ARM Cortex-A53 1.8GHz) is constantly updated to support the latest advances in audio formats and streaming service features. StreamMagic has also seen 14,300 Android and 18,500 iOS app downloads in 2021.
"We are so proud to be able to celebrate not just one, but two milestones for StreamMagic in 2021. StreamMagic is now 10 years old and continues to be an integral part of so many of our hi-fi products – all of us at Cambridge Audio can’t wait to see what the next decade holds for it," says Chris Saunders, Software Manager at Cambridge Audio.
Cambridge Audio also is going through a very strong moment, with a powerful lineup of great products, from the powerful range of Edge amplifiers to the award-winning Evo all-in-one music system, and globally acclaimed Melomania true wireless earbuds.
