Toumaz audio modules to support Spotify Connect
Toumaz Limited (AIM: TMZ, 'Toumaz', or 'the Group'), a pioneer in low cost, ultra-low power wireless communications technology, has joined with Spotify, the world's leading digital music service, to support the new Spotify Connect service on its dual band connected audio module.
Audio devices powered by Toumaz's Venice 6.5 module, such as wireless speakers, AV receivers and internet radios, will be able to wirelessly stream Spotify Connect directly, as the service is enabled by Toumaz's chip. Users will then control their music and volume from their phone, tablet and audio devices without needing to use the bandwith on those devices to stream the service.
Spotify Connect on Toumaz's Venice 6.5 module will be demonstrated this week at the IFA Berlin 2013 show and the first products from selected partner audio brands are expected to be on the market later this year.
Anthony Sethill, Toumaz CEO, said:
"This relationship is a great endorsement of our connected wireless solutions and we are pleased that Spotify chose us to be one of their first Spotify Connect partners.
"This is one of the first full integrations of our audio solutions with a partner. We are excited to help Spotify enhance its users' audio listening experience."
