Audirvāna adds Presto streaming service
Presto Music is now fully integrated into Audirvāna playback software, allowing music lovers to enjoy Presto downloads and streaming in one application, with the best possible sound quality.
Presto Music is the UK’s leading destination for classical and jazz recordings – whether via its streaming service or online and in-store sales of CDs, DVDs, high-quality downloads and vinyl. It offers 200,000+ albums to stream, many in high-resolution audio quality, and its Fair Play initiative sees Presto Music pay per second of music streamed, rather than per play’ like other services. That makes a significant difference, especially to classical and jazz recordings where tracks can be significantly longer than the average pop or rock tune.
The acclaimed Audirvāna application manages and plays music from different sources, allowing you to organise, browse and create playlists and favourites from across all your local music files, downloads and streaming services. Audirvāna continually evolves and improves its proprietary technology to ensure the best digital audio playback performance from a computer, server or NAS, including fully optimised versions for PC, Mac and Linux systems.
Presto Music and Audirvāna have worked closely on an advanced integration of the two services, ensuring ease of use alongside stunning sound quality. Customers can play Presto over UPnP, Chromecast or USB, with a selection of processing options, including oversampling and acoustic correction, also available to explore.
In addition, the Plays With Audirvāna programme offers seamless integration with audio products from a wide range of high-end brands, including Chord Electronics, dCS, iFi, KEF and many more.
Presto Music Chief Executive, Chris O’Reilly, says: “I’m thrilled our carefully curated catalogue of classical and jazz recordings is now even more accessible. Audirvāna’s superb sound quality and seamless integration with high-end hi-fi make this a truly premium partnership.”
Manuel de la Fuente, Managing Director of Audirvāna, adds: “Quite simply, you won’t hear Presto Music streaming and downloads sound better than via this new integration. Audirvāna is delighted to offer this exceptional listening experience to Presto’s discerning customers.”
Both Presto Music and Audirvāna offer 30-day free trials, enabling music lovers to explore everything the new partnership has to offer.
