AirStream 10 brings with it over 37 years of audio expertise, expending virtues from our larger loudspeaker ranges and shrinking them into a small, highly versatile and unique design.
Wi-fi
The AirStream 10 uses Wi-Fi technology to automatically stream Radio Stations and music files from a computer or hard drive where you have music files stored. This prevents the use of unsightly wires and lets you benefit from placing the AirStream 10 anywhere in your house or office where you have a wireless router. (Note: an Ethernet cable is supplied with the AirStream 10 to link it up with a standard router to access the Internet, if you do not have a wireless router.)
Internet Radio
Internet radio is the accumulation of thousands of radio stations all being broadcast over the Word Wide Web. They consist of major national stations, regional stations or even tiny stations that only broadcast over the Internet. The wonderful thing about Internet radio is the variety; there is so much choice! AirStream 10 allows you to search by name, location or genre, so finding what you want through the thousands of stations is quick and simple.
DAB
The difference between DAB and a conventional AM/FM radio broadcast, is that it is transmitted digitally resulting in a high quality audio sound*, without any hiss, fading or crackles. In DAB mode, AirStream 10 will automatically scan and find all the available stations for you, showing all the broadcast information on screen.

* Note: the sound quality is dependant on a strong signal strength, Signal strength can vary from area to area.
Interface
The AirStream 10 features advanced technical software that will let you listen to Internet, DAB and FM radio stations. Yet to navigate and use, AirStream 10 is exceptionally intuitive. Browse the menus via the central control dial, and touch sensitive buttons and view it all on the clear black and white LED display. The AirStream 10 may be packed full of advanced technical features but its clean layout and ergonomic functionality make it quick and easy to use.
Build
Through careful development and attention to detail, and using only high quality materials normally found on our more advanced hi-fi loudspeakers, the design of the AirStream 10 envelopes our core design principles. From it’s strong, ultra low-resonance aluminium shell, to the touch sensitive menu buttons and ergonomic central control dial. AirStream 10 redefines the ‘compact radio’ through high quality materials and superior fit and finish.
Performance
The basis of the AirStream 10 was to offer as much versatility from a radio as possible. This is not only executed in the design, where form most certainly follows function, but also from decades of audio expertise and advanced audio simulation modeling we have developed a driver to pull every last detail from the audio content available.
