The new Philips' Streamium WACS7500 hub and WAS7500 extender is a complete solution for who want a music streaming system. With stylish framing, the 80GB HDD stores up to 1,500 CDs, has an LCD screen that displays track information and USB connectivity and can connect to up to five wireless extenders through Ethernet or WiFi.
