About the 6000N Play
The Audiolab 6000N Play is a full-width network music streamer designed around the DTS Play-Fi wireless multi-room platform. It receives network audio via Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet, supports playback up to 24-bit/192 kHz, and uses an ESS Sabre ES9018K2M DAC for its variable-level stereo RCA analogue output. It can also be used purely as a digital transport through its coaxial and optical S/PDIF outputs. Streaming functions include DTS Play‑Fi services and multi-room operation, with support reported for Spotify Connect, AirPlay 2, Tidal, Qobuz, Deezer, Amazon Music, Napster, HDtracks and other services subject to regional availability and the Play‑Fi app. Connectivity includes dual-band Wi-Fi, Ethernet, analogue RCA output, coaxial and optical digital outputs, 12 V trigger input/link output, a USB-A service/update port, and a USB-B control port intended for integration with an Audiolab 6000A. It is a source component only: it has no analogue or digital audio inputs, power amplifier, headphone output, or USB music-file playback input.
