Audio Station

See Product Specification for the applied models.

The Synology Audio Station is a web-based music management interface for users to sort their music stored on their Synology product into playlists, play music stored on the Synology product, and even stream internet radio stations.

By connecting supported USB speakers and Synology Remote receptor to the USB ports of the Synology product, users will be able to enjoy the music stored on the Synology product with the freedom of a wireless remote control.

Controlling the iPod mp3 player is another convenient feature of the Synology Audio Station. Simply connecting the iPod to the USB port of the Synology product will enable users to play music from the iPod using the Synology Remote or through the web interface of the Synology Audio Station.

How does it work?

To use the Synology Audio Station, users will need to upgrade their Synology product to the latest firmware, obtain a pair of supported USB speakers, and the optional Synology Remote. After that, users can start using the Synology Audio Station.
