Abstract:
Streaming of high bandwidth audio streams using the Internet Protocol on an Ethernet network is common practice. The invention concerns an audio stream network  1  with network components, wherein the network components comprise at least one source device  2  and a plurality of receiving devices  3, 3 a,  3 b,  3 c,  wherein the network components are connected with a network connection, wherein the network connection is using the internet protocol, wherein the source device  2  is adapted to provide an audio stream  4 a,  4 b,  4 c , wherein the audio stream  4 a,  4 b,  4 c  comprises at least one channel, wherein the receiving devices  3, 3 a,  3 b, 3 c  are adapted to receive one or more audio stream  4 a,  4 b,  4 c  from at least one of the source devices  3, 3 a,  3 b,  3 c.

Claim (Index 1):
An audio stream network comprising a plurality of network components,\n wherein the network components comprise at least one source device and a plurality of receiving devices, wherein the network components are connected with a network connection, wherein the network connection uses an internet protocol, wherein the source device is adapted to provide an audio stream wherein the audio stream comprises at least one channel, wherein the receiving devices are adapted to receive one or more audio stream from at least one of the source devices\n wherein the receiving device receives the audio stream via a stream transmission, wherein the stream transmission is transmitted by the network connection, wherein the stream transmission is a multicast transmission or a unicast transmission \n the audio stream network further comprising a decision unit, wherein the decision unit comprises a user adjustable rule and is adapted to decide if the stream transmission has to be a multicast transmission or a unicast transmission.
