For all music buffs around the world sticking to latest audio gadgets, bit-compression rates have always been a tragedy. Even the first-rate sound systems accompanied by hi-tech peripherals fail to deliver, when its source is in not-so-attuned MP3 format. However, the Sooloos Music Server comes as a welcome surprise. Essentially, it is a no-compromise product that has been conceived by three great talents working with giant music libraries.
Highlighting a marvelous interface with FLAC (Free Audio Lossless Codec) – a compression algorithm the enables bit-by-bit accuracy to the source, the Sooloos offers a perfect solution to the quandary of compression. Moreover, the Sooloos also takes care of storage with a capacity of storage touching terabytes (TB) – just 1TB is can hold up music equivalent to 3,000 CDs – enough space to store the FLAC-produced files.
Sooloos is sleek system with a 17-inch touch-screen display, a stand-CD drive. The core system comprises of the source – digital-to-analog converters, analog output stage and the processor and storage with two hard drives including a mirror-image backup and primary drive.

This is a really cool music server. The touch screen display really kicks it off, but (for me anyway) the real selling point is the support for lossless audio compression, as opposed to the traditional mp3.

Hi, Interesting article – thanks for posting!! Think of the Sooloos system as a source component like a CD player. You feed it your CDs, which it converts to lossless FLAC files, stores them on its hard drives, and organizes them visually for you on a touchscreen.
