Legrand | AV has announced that it’s Nuvo Player Portfolio now has Apple AirPlay 2 support.
Apple AirPlay 2 integration is available on select Player Portfolio models running software version 2020.2, and allows users to stream content seamlessly from iOS devices to one or more Nuvo players around the home. It also allows users to control playback using voice control through Siri.
The Player Portfolio devices that natively support AirPlay 2 integration include Nuvo’s new P600 DIN Rail Player and the P5050, P5100, and P5200 Professional Series Players. Other players installed in a system can be grouped with these models to expand AirPlay 2 streams throughout the home.
“We are thrilled to add AirPlay 2 support to the Player Portfolio’s already robust offering of music sources,” said Gerald Willis, product manager of Nuvo and On-Q at Legrand | AV. “Now, users have the option of making their iOS devices the hub of their multiroom audio systems.
“They can stream Apple Music throughout their homes, in addition to any other supported service, their iTunes libraries, favourite podcasts, and more. And they don’t even have to set up these capabilities within the Nuvo Player app; they simply choose their content on their deice and select the desired Nuvo zone for playback. It couldn’t be easier.”
