Home Screen
Your
fi
rst point of contact with AXiS X3’s
interface is the home screen. We think
the various modes will be fairly self-
explanatory and easy to
fi
nd but here we
offer a short description of the function
of each of the homepage icons.
Gently press and release an icon
to access the relevant mode.
Internet Radio
Internet Radio mode allows you to access
tens of thousands of online radio stations
and podcasts from around the World. As
long as you have a broadband internet
connection, you don’t even need a computer
to use this mode. Details on page 11.
Network Audio /
Network Music Player
AXiS X3’s network music player mode
“Network Audio” lets you stream audio
fi
les
across your network from PC or Mac. This
turns AXiS X3 into a multi-room system for
your existing music collection. See page 20.

Wirelessly stream music from your
Bluetooth smartphone, tablet, laptop or
other Bluetooth enabled device, directly
to AXiS X3, without the need for physical
docking or connection. See page 20.

Via a standard 3.5mm audio cable,
you can use AXiS X3 to play back
