The CasaTunes Plus Music Server is the latest generation music server, providing the music playback quality, performance and flexibility you come to expect from CasaTunes.
The number of High Definition audio streams on the CasaTunes Plus Music Server is configurable from 2 to 6 streams, including up to 5 analog and one digital streams.
The number of licensed streams is remotely configurable in the field, greatly simplifying product selection. Now you need only stock one item, and via licensing, you can configure your CasaTunes Plus music server as a CT-Plus-2/3/4/5/6. The CasaTunes Plus Music Server ships with all the cabling accessories required for a CT-Plus-6.
The High Definition audio streams on the CasaTunes Plus music server are typically fed to a matrix amplifier, which amplifies and distributes the music streams throughout the home.
Each stream acts as an independent, stand alone music player. You can listen to disc music, networked music, Internet radio and music, SONOS music, as well as stream music from an iOS device using Apple AirPlay.
You can add an optional 250GB SSD drive (at the time of purchase) to store your own music collections, enough storage for 50,000+ mp3 songs.
In addition to playing music, every CasaTunes music server includes our Intelligent Matrix Amplifier Control software, enabling CasaTunes music servers to control CasaTunes and 3rd party matrix amplifiers.
When controlling a matrix amplifier, the CasaTunes music server provides many advanced capabilities, including Alexa voice control, native Apps for Android and iOS phones and tablets, and HTML5 browsers, integration with SONOS, advanced room grouping, waking up and falling asleep listening to your favorite tunes, custom doorbell chimes, seamless integration with AV Receivers, and much more.
Designed as a cross platform App, the beautiful free CasaTunesX App, works the same on a variety of Amazon, Android and iOS phones and tablets, as well as modern HTML5 browser devices, providing the same great experience, regardless of the control device.
For easy music control by users unfamiliar with CasaTunes, you can quickly create custom push-button interfaces using CasaTunes' Smart Task technology. This feature allows you to design simple, intuitive controls tailored to your specific needs in just minutes.
CasaTunes music servers can be used in one of three ways, (i) stand alone, as a streamer integrated with a home automation system, (ii) in combination with a CasaTunes matrix amplifier, and (iii) in combination with a 3rd party matrix amplifier.
CasaTunes music servers provide out-of-the-box support for Control4, ELAN, Compass Control, HDL, KNX, RTI, and URC control systems.
To complete your whole house audio system, simply add a CasaTunes matrix amplifier, such as the CT-6X6MA or CT-12X8MA to the CasaTunes Plus music server, and add your speakers.
Other optional accessories for the CasaTunes Plus music server include a rack mount kit and a Power-Over-Ethernet (POE) module which allows you to power your music server over the network. The POE Module is a factory installed item, and must be specified when you order the server.
