Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Pioneer makes simple, great-sounding whole-home wireless audio systems for Android phones and tablets. Using DTS's breakthrough Play-Fi(R) technology, you can stream your favorite tunes over Wi-Fi right from the app to Pioneer Speaker(s) and/or Pioneer Receiver(s) connected to your existing stereo system. It's a huge step up from Bluetooth - the audio quality is outstanding, and you can enjoy music from your phone in one room, or all your rooms, anytime. The app offers a wide range of built-in streaming options: play anything from your music library, enjoy songs from DLNA servers on your home network. Please also note that the Pioneer Music Control App is companion software to audio products enabled with Play-Fi technology. It is not intended as a stand-alone audio player.
