Features and Benefits
Features Benefits
Simple set up
No need to be “network literate”. The Base Transceiver and TerraPlayer Radio are plug-and-play.

Vibrant album icons place your music at the touch of a finger – like using a jukebox. Other features,
such as a five-band graphic equalizer, at your fingertips.
Wireless
transmission
Audio is transmitted from the computer to the Radio via a digital wireless signal. The Base
Transceiver has a wide transmission range of up to 500′, and travels through walls. Minimal
interference from electronic appliances.

for your favorite artists, albums, radio stations, or playlists.
Playlists
The TerraPlayer Utility Suite allows you to create playlists, so you can set up in advance exactly what
you want to hear.
Easy CD ripping
The TerraPlayer Utility Suite includes Ripper—a program that converts a standard audio CD into
digital audio files stored on your PC.
Automatic Music
Information
Both Ripper and MusicInfo, programs in the TerraPlayer Utility Suite, automatically identify and fill
