At time of writing, no iPhone-compatible or Android app exists. 'Lightning DS' is the search term required to net the right result. Forget about searching for 'AURALiC' and/or 'Aries'. Finding it in Apple’s app store isn’t as easy as you might think. The only way to configure the Aries’ digital outputs, set up network streaming, activate Airplay/Songcast or browse cloud-based libraries is via AURALiC’s home-baked Lightning DS iOS app. …which itself gives rise to another niggle. My advice: ditch it in favour of the iOS app…. Firing horizontally or vertically off-axis was a hit and miss. And the Aries is quite particular about the RC-1 being pointed directly at its screen. Only useful for play/pause, previous/next and numerical track selection, it’s nothing to write home about. The supplied plastic RC-1 infrared remote is the same which ships with the Vega DAC. It is from this folder that the Aries streams digital audio. Once up and running (in the system tray), Minimserver announces the contents of a user-nominated folder to the network. Installation of Minimserver on my MacBook Air necessitated the installation of a Java Runtime Environment.
