Stream-XR

Cyrus Stream-XR User guide

  • Hello! I'm a chat assistant that has reviewed the Cyrus XR Stream-XR user guide. I've familiarized myself with the device's features, including its BluOS app control, various input options, and remote control capabilities. I'm ready to help you understand how to use your new audio streamer. Feel free to ask me any questions regarding the device.
  • How do I connect the Stream-XR to my network?
    Can I control the Stream-XR using a remote?
    What types of audio files does the Stream-XR support?
