Abstract
There is provided a system for reproduction of media content. The system includes at least one sound reproduction apparatus being wirelessly connectable to at least one control apparatus via at least one data channel, the at least one control apparatus being connected to the at least one sound reproduction apparatus once the at least one control apparatus receives a first signal indicating a presence of the at least one sound reproduction apparatus; and the at least one control apparatus being wirelessly connectable to at least one data storage apparatus on a data network. Preferably, the at least one sound reproduction apparatus plays back audio signals of the media content which is either stored on the at least one control apparatus or received via the data network, and with the audio signals of the media content being received at a memory module of the at least one sound reproduction apparatus. The audio signals may be played back either in a streaming form or a stored-data playback form, the form depending on the audio signals stored in the memory module.
