Overview

The AVA Media RIP-N-PLAY allows you to easily make and store top-quality digital copies of your CDs. You can then enjoy your new music library wherever you want to hear it – in the same room, all over the house or even on the move.

The RIP-N-PLAY is simple to set up, works with just about any music service/system going – from Apple iTunes to SONOS, via a world of DNLA devices and more – and supports FLAC, ALAC (Apple Lossless) and MP3 formats.

All this talent sits inside the RIP-N-PLAY’s precision-engineered aluminium casing, which is almost silent in operation and uses a fraction of the electricity of typical computer-based systems.

Designed, built and fully supported in Britain by a company with 30 years of mechanical design expertise and world leading IT credentials, the AVA Media RIP-N-PLAY is a media server like no other.

The AVA Media RIP-N-PLAY takes seconds to set up: just plug in power and network cables, wait for the green light and start ripping.

Insert a music CD into the RIP-N-PLAY slot loader and all its track information, plus album art, is automatically retrieved from our premium metadata partner.
