Daphile is a minimal
operating system for running a digital audio player on a headless
computer. The operating system and media manager can be controlled
remotely using a web-based interface.
The Daphile is the heart
of a digital music system. Its primary focus is in storage and playback
of your digital music library. It enables the best possible audio
quality and future-proof flexibility by providing plug & play
support for USB connected digital-to-analog converters (DAC). You can
easily setup a multi-zone system just by connecting another USB DAC for
each zone.
The software solutions of the Daphile are optimized
for the best possible audiophile experience. The Daphile supports the
most common file formats including high resolution audio. It manages
bit-perfect and gapless playback.
The networking capabilities of
the Daphile are flexible and easy to setup – both wired and wireless. It
can even operate in a standalone mode where it provides a wireless
access point for the control device. The Daphile can be controlled from
any web-enabled device. There also exists the choice of compatible third
party control applications for tablets and smart phones.
The
Daphile operates as a network-attached storage enabling easy music
transfer to its internal storage. It is also possible to store audio CDs
directly to the internal storage by ripping them with a connected
optical drive. The CD album metadata and cover are automatically fetched
from the Internet during the ripping process. In addition to internal
storage the Daphile can play music from various Internet streaming
services as well as from external USB-connected and network-attached
storage devices.
The Daphile is in many ways an extensible,
future proof solution. The core software provided by Daphile is user
upgradeable via the Internet. The system functionality can be extended
with third party plug-ins.
Philosophy
The principal design
philosophy for the Daphile has been simplicity and focused functionality
to produce a flexible and future proof audiophile component for the era
of high resolution digital music.
From the audiophile
perspective the digital music listening is finally – first time after
the birth of CD – taking a big leap forward. This owes primarily to
- Internet distribution of lossless and high resolution audio files (superior to CD sound quality) and
- High-end asynchronous USB digital-to-analog converters.
The
asynchronous signal transmission enables improved audio component
independence for DAC i.e. digital-to-analog conversion accuracy
(including timing) is now fully determined in the domain of DAC. Most of
the best DACs in the market are already using USB input. And they are
worthy of a good partner to supply the music stream for them – not just a
computer equipped with a standard operating system.
The Daphile
is designed to be the perfect companion for USB DAC. Just plug your USB
DAC into the Daphile and start playing – no configuration is needed. The
Daphile has audiophile optimized software solutions for digital music
playback and storage. Its main priority is in providing the bit-perfect
continuous audio stream for the connected audio devices.
Ease-of-use
The
use of the Daphile is simple and requires no expertize. Initial
deployment, networking, music storage, CD ripping, DAC setup, multi-zone
usage, external storage usage, software upgrade, etc...is just easy.
And for the preference of music control you have a number of excellent
options.
Enjoy the music.
