connected directly to a suitable power amp or active speakers if desired.
The Stream Magic 6 also features an environmentally friendly low power
(<0.5w) standby circuit.
A free iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad application is available that allows full
wireless control of the Stream Magic 6 (in conjunction with a Wi-Fi network).
Search for Stream Magic Remote on the Apple App Store or browse
www.stream-magic.com for further details on this and other Apps and
features as they become available.
Ultimate sound quality depends on the whole of your system, naturally we
particularly recommend components from the Cambridge Audio Azur range
as these have been designed to the same exacting standards as this product.
Your dealer can also supply excellent quality Cambridge Audio interconnects
to ensure your system realises its full potential.
Thanks for taking the time to read this manual; we do recommend you keep
it for future reference.
