Specification for Stock Code # Livingcontrol Afinity Musicbox3

The MusicBox 3 is a reference quality digital server, capable of delivering music from thousands of CDs to any room in the home.

High quality audio had never been easier to enjoy or more accessible. Simply upload all your CDs, or download music from the Internet onto the MusicBox 3's hard drive.

As you record an album, its title and track listings are acquired and stored automatically by the MusicBox 3.

Now, from any room, you can select the album you wish to listen to using the Living Control VideoPad or DisplayPad. Mum, Dad and the children can listen to three totally different albums in any number of rooms simultaneously - it's that clever.

Utilising sophisticated encoding and decoding engines, the MusicBox 3 excels in sound quality. The installer or user can configure the MusicBox 3 to record albums with a balance of absolute sound quality and storage capacity. Even at 192kHz sampling, the MusicBox 3 can store in excess of 3000 albums.

An exceptionally fast disc drive and processing engine enables a complete album to be recorded, uncompressed, in less than five minutes!

With full on-screen remote control menu navigation, the MusicBox 3 will perform beautifully as a standalone product. Software is available to allow you to control your MusicBox 3 via a wireless enabled Pocket PC. All album titles and track names are shown in real time!

In the latest version of the MusicBox 3 you can copy music files directly to your I-Pod! Simply add your chosen albums or tracks to the MusicBox 3's I-Pod play-list then dock the I-Pod in its cradle. The MusicBox 3 will automatically download your chosen albums or tracks into the I-Pod.

With the new USB 2.0 interface, an external Hard Drive can be added to provide a back up of all recorded albums.

Whether you are looking for a hard drive storage system of the highest sound quality or a source component within a fully integrated multi-room system, the MusicBox 3 will exceed your expectations.
