Discover the world of computer audio without the computer.
The Discovery Music Server is designed to be the heart of a serious music system, offering playback of local and streaming music, rich multi-dimensional metadata and multi-room audio, all with an interface that anyone can master in a few minutes.
Keeping in line with quality music, the lossless, high-fidelity music streaming service Tidal® has been tightly integrated into Discovery's software*. Content from your local collection and content from Tidal are presented in the same beautiful, easy-to-use interface.
It's really very simple
The Discovery Music Server lets users open their personal music vault from another computer, Apple iPad** or Android tablet. Whether your choice is a full ELAC system, powered by an ELAC integrated amplifier and running an ELAC loudspeaker system, or a pair of ear buds, you can listen in one room or around the house with other Discovery-compatible products.
A wave of music
Discovery delivers music based on relationships between performers and composers, starting from the tracks you choose. TIDAL* delivers no-compromise music streaming, with millions of tracks in lossless, audiophile quality—a bigger music landscape than ever before.
Your music, as you like it
Between users and across devices, you can choose from downloads, ripped CDs and streaming services. Your collection is supported by a rich library of images and information—an Archive of material that adds depth, knowledge and excitement to your listening.
