Enhanced Audio Distribution from a Single Source
“Multi-Stream simplifies audio setups by eliminating the need for multiple audio processing units. This approach streamlines both installation and maintenance, offers scalability to fit any space, and significantly reduces hardware costs. As a result, our system is more efficient and cost-effective for our customers.” explains Peter Sumega, Director High End & CEDIA.
