WIFI connectivity also opens up the possibility of synchronous wireless streaming to multiple devices (multi-room).

History of the radio
Founded in 1864 by the engineer Eugène Ducretet, the company initially produced precision equipment and scientific instruments incorporating electromagnetically driven mechanisms. Among the first patents filed by Ducretet in 1879 were a phonograph, wireless transmission antennas and X-ray applications.
In 1915, after the death of the founder and after the death of his son Pierre on the front, his son Fernand (1878-1928) took over the company but became blind in 1917; the company was taken over by Ernest Roger.
In 1930, it became part of the French company Thomson-Houston (CFTH). In 1932, the Ducretet Thomson brand appeared on a series of radio and phonographic equipment sold under the name "La Voix Du Monde". The factory moved to Rue de Vouillé, in a space of 8,000 m2 where more than 800 workers were employed by 1935. In 1936, CFTH was partially nationalized. In the 1950s, television sets began to be produced.
On December 22, 1950, it signed an agreement with the French company Thomson-Houston represented by Pierre Baillot, and the firm of Maurice Selmer, and founded a record label. In 1958, CFTH and Pathé-Marconi merged the brand into a new one, the SDRT, which distributed the material La Voix de son Maître..
The brand disappears around 1980, after having produced nearly 500 different models of radio and television equipment.
