SONOMA COUNTY, CA (May 9, 2023) — Artist Connection, the highest-quality audio video streaming platform available, announced today a one-of-a-kind demonstration of streaming uncompressed immersive audio at msm-studios headquarters during the HIGH END Munich Show, May 19-20, 16:00–20:00 each day. Artist Connection has partnered with msm-studios Pure Audio—audiophile hi-resolution multichannel content provider—to stream its significant library of  24bit/192kHz music uncompressed in its native PCM, immersive, or binaural format using the Artist Connection app for iOS, Android, or browser. 

HIGH END Show attendees are invited to experience this demo, in which Artist Connection will stream Pure Audio content directly to select high-end audiophile receivers using Artist Connection’s AC Connect by StreamUnlimited technology. The integration of AC Connect makes it possible for qualified audio manufacturers to offer discerning customers the ability to directly stream premium quality content over WiFi to their preferred choice of playback equipment. 

In addition to audiophile music streaming, Artist Connection will also unveil the Artist Connection app for Android TV using an nVidia SHIELD TV Pro streaming media player to stream uncompressed immersive content. The Artist Connection app for Android TV is the first Android TV app that supports integrated AURO 3D streaming, in addition to Dolby TrueHD and Dolby Atmos.

“We are excited to show the audiophile community what is now possible. We’ve come a long way from a Blu-ray player to streaming hi-res multichannel audio over WiFi,” says Jonathan Reichbach, CEO and founder of Artist Connection. “Artist Connection is built from the ground up to stream hi-resolution, multichannel immersive content. With the Pure Audio music library and content from other immersive audio providers, we have incredible content to stream. With AC Connect or Artist Connection for Android TV, we can reach devices with this content without compromising audio quality.”

“Artist Connection came along at the right time for us as a way to repurpose our existing library of Blu-ray content for streaming without the worry of format compatibility or a reduction in quality,” says Stefan Bock, Managing Director of msm-studios and founder of Pure Audio. “There is demand for this content, and with Artist Connection, streaming technology has finally caught up with and is able to satisfy that demand.”
