It goes without saying that The Athenaeum music server delivers in terms of sound. (The music is stored in a lossless compression format, resulting in a rich, rounded sound.)

Where it scores over other systems is in its …

… accessibility:

operational out of the box, the Athenaeum can be used as a stand-alone music server or integrated with domestic or commercial AV systems.

Like other makes of server it is easily accessed via your PC, laptop or proprietary control system. What really makes using the Athenaeum child’s play, however, is the wireless interactive hand-held touchscreen, which comes configured with Pinnacle software as part of the package. With this powerful palm-sized device, your music collection is literally at your fingertips.

… security:

if you are not happy storing your entire music collection on a single disk, then the Athenaeum can be configured to incorporate a back-up facility using pairs* of removable hard drives to mirror all the data.



* The Athenaeum has space for up to four removable hard drives.

… expandability:

the server can accommodate 8,800 CDs (yes - CDs, not songs!) at the highest quality; but start out as large as your current collection. When you run out of space, simply buy additional drives* and carry on adding music. Don't get caught out when your system runs out of space but don't waste money buying extra space you will never use.
