With an iPhone/iPad

If you are using an iPhone, you can stream your Tidal music to your Phantom system via Airplay, Bluetooth or UPnP. 

• For Airplay:

Open the audio settings of your iPhone and select the room of your Phantom (e. g. living room) as audio output.

Launch the Tidal application on your iPhone, the sound will now come out on the Phantom. This sound will be in 16bit / 44.1kHz CD quality.

Please note that your Phantom must be Airplay compatible. To check this compatibility, you can refer to this article. If you have two Phantoms, including one non-Airplay, please refer to this article. 

• For UPnP:

To use this streaming protocol, we recommend the use of the app MconnectHD.

This app can be easily linked to your Tidal account and will recognize Phantom as an audio output.
