Peachtree Audio, the amplifier manufacturer known for its compact retro aesthetics, and Lenbrook International, the owner and developer of the BluOS high-res multi-room platform, have announced a global partnership that will bring the BluOS streaming platform to upcoming Peachtree Audio products.

“We have looked seriously at various options to enter the growing multi-room audio category,” stated Andrew Clark, Peachtree Audio’s President. “After some initial attempts along the way, a full review of the platforms available brought us to the decision to adopt the BluOS platform. It was clear that BluOS and Peachtree share the same values of high-resolution performance audio. The richness of the BluOS experience – including the plethora of integrations and support for different audio sources – was far beyond what other platforms could offer.”

“Peachtree Audio’s decision process reaffirms our investment into this platform and our goal to offer BluOS as a choice for discerning audio brands looking for an efficient way to adapt to shifting consumer behaviours and technology standards,” says Gordon Simmonds, CEO of Lenbrook International. “We want hi-res multiroom audio to be accessible to the broadest range of audiophiles and music lovers possible. Bringing a unique brand like Peachtree Audio with their modern, digitally savvy fan base into the BluOS ecosystem helps us to do just that.”

BluOS Connectivity

BluOS is a proprietary, but brand-agnostic, platform, which means that any BluOS Enabled product connected to the same Wi-Fi network can share music libraries and playlists, regardless of the brand of speaker or audio component. With the addition of multiple hardware partners, listeners will be able to choose from a variety of traditional hifi and modern wireless products from several brands to create a wireless whole home audio system that suits their lifestyles, without compromising on audio quality.
