Today it is common for consumers to download and store music on laptop or desktop computers. Music source includes internet radio and numerous APE, WAV and Flac files stored on super sized hard drives. Many consumers even store their entire CD collections to their computer hard drives for convenience of use.
The Opera Consonance Wireless 1.0 DAC is designed to offer you even more convenience of use - you now no longer need to move your computer next to your audio system in order to play the music stored on the hard drive. You no longer need to get up from your seat to your audio system to select music. You can have the comfort of selecting your favorite music track from the comfort of your seat, right on your laptop, at your finger tip.
The Wireless 1.0 DAC has a 50 meter (150 ft) radius, so you can operate your audio system from another side of the house (unless you have a huge mansion :). The wireless receiver can be set up next to your audio system to receive signal transferred from the USB transmitter, which is plugged into your computer's USB port. No extra software needs to be installed - your computer, be it a PC or a Mac, will recognize the transmitter immediately. The signal transfer has no or very little signal loss, the jitter is very low since there are no long wires used in transmission.
Use the wireless DAC in your multi-room system: Are you a guy / gal with more than one audio system in separate rooms? You can get multiple of this unit and connect it to each of your systems. Your music source will be still centralized on your computer hard drive but you can play the music in multiple rooms! No more cutting open walls to run wires, no more leaving valuable multi-room behind when you sell your house... unlike in-wall speakers, now you can re-locate your system in your room to fit your preference and your music will follow you :)
