Apple AirPlay

The Delta PRE is AirPlay certified; it can render audio content from Apple
iPhone, iPad or iPod touch devices or from iTunes on a Mac or PC.
To play content on the Delta PRE:
1. Connect your device to the same Network as the Delta PRE.
2. Open iTunes or the iPod App on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
3. Locate and tap the AirPlay icon
menu (if attempting to AirPlay video content from Safari or Videos, begin
playback first).
4. Press play.
When you play content over AirPlay the source will automaticaly change to the
Network source; in fact, the system will go ON automatically if it is in standby.
If your Delta PRE has multiple sources that select the Network input, the system
will select the most recently used (Network input) source.
The Home page shows stream status including the clock status and file format.
The Delta PRE supports the Apple AirPlay protocol for streaming audio
through a Network using wired (Ethernet) or wireless (WiFi) connections,
or a combination of the two. AirPlay lets you stream audio from your WiFi
Network-connected iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, or using iTunes, stream from a
(WiFi or Ethernet) Network-connected Mac or PC. Working within the Apple
ecosystem, AirPlay allows a wide range of file formats and data rates up to full
CD quality. A list of the AirPlay-supported formats and rates appears in the
specifications section of this manual.
To use AirPlay, make sure a source button to use the Network connection has
been enabled.
Note: When your Ethernet connection is active, the green and amber lights
on the Ethernet connector will be illuminated and the Network Setup page
will show the status: "Connected." If no connection is present, the front panel
display will show the words "Not Connected" when the Network source is
selected and also appear highlighted in red when viewing the Network Setup
page.
The Delta PRE display will show the status of the audio stream, so when using
AirPlay, it will show the sampling frequency of the signal as well as its format
(ALAC is the format AirPlay streams use). You may adjust the volume in iTunes
or if using Apple's free Remote App, change volume and choose and manage
music files from your iOS device (iPad, iPhone, iPod touch). Volume changes
happen within the Delta PRE, which uses a high-quality analog volume control
to avoid the loss of resolution associated with digital domain attenuation. If you
press pause or stop, the display will indicate AirPlay - Stopped.
