IK MultimediaiRig Stream | Streaming audio interface for iPhone, iPad and Mac/PC

Getting music from a turntable to play back through Apple HomePods is quite a challenge if you don’t want to involve a Mac of some kind. How many Airplay 2 TRANSMITTERS (not receivers) can you find? Exactly. If you exclude Apple products, you might have an easier time with finding Hen’s teeth. And the WiiM which used to do this no longer does, to my intense frustration. 🤦‍♂️ Enter the IRig … Connections are (in my case, at least), Turntable > Phono pre amp > Irig > iPod 7th Gen running the AirChord 2 app (this app, or something similar, is essential) > Apple TV via Airplay 2 > Homepod stereo pair and … boom. A. It works. 🥳 B. It works reliably, so I don’t have to spend half an hour faffing with reboots and reconnections every time I want to play a record 🥳🥳 C. It sounds pretty good too. 🥳🥳🥳 Significantly better than I expected, TBH. It’s clearly not a state-of-the art solution by any measure. When high-end analogue phono pre amps can cost £10k upwards, what can you realistically expect for a bit less than £100? But it’s a solution that sounds surprisingly decent IMHO. Highly recommended.😁 👍🏻

My picture isn't very glamourous and you have to look hard ot see the Irig Stream on the right of the desk. I used this product along with Streamyard software on a Windows 11 laptop. I was able to find the audio in Streamyard easily after pressing play the stream was picked up fine. I picked this model as it has a control and indicator lights for the output which came in handy. I've made my first live stream to You Tube set to private but now public as I'm happpy with the result. This gadget is a little pricy but worth it. Oh yes, I ordered this on recomendation from the global DJ network having run into problems recording my PA system live set with audio distortion. This has now given me a new way to create live sets. I'm pleased with the product. I just plugged it in to my laptop using the supplied USB C cable and it powered up.

Works great my wife used it within an hour of receiving it. Very fast delivery.

As always any irig products are easy to use. They are Apple friendly not android friendly . On one occasion while streaming through an androids latest device it failed in the middle and I had to stop the programme half way through. I never had any issues with apple products. Sound quality is superb. The volume control knob has little or no use if you’re using a mixing desk. Overall this is a star unit for recording or streaming.

Easy to use, sound is ok but don't use it on Android phone, because it doesn't work at all, the app is truly garbage. They put money to build a nice hardware but the software is trash on the Android, don't know really how it works on an Iphone. I use it as a audio device for just record my sets as I have an Android phone.

I purchased this so i could make recordings directly from my pioneer mixer to my iPhone, the input cables work for around 20 seconds and then the recording stops. 90% of the time it doesn't even start to work so you end up having to close the app, unplug cables and try again. Its the most frustrating and useless piece of kit to record things on your iPhone. If you do get it to record you then have to pay an additional fee to export the file!!! Then there are other additional fees if you want to crop the recording or change any levels. I've read some reviews that to stop this from happening you need to buy a mains power adaptor (which i did at the cost of another £40). Ive spent over £160 altogether on this set up and it just doesnt work...steer clear and DO NOT BUY!!!

Seems to work ok but I am waiting some Support to be able to use it on some applications. It has very good reviews and a wide range of uses. For the price it’s a good bit of kit and has the app to use it. Sound quality seems good. And for live streaming it’s ideal

Good
