Spectrio media player

The Digital Media Player

The Spectrio (formerly Retail Radio) player is your all-in-one solution for plug-and-play channels. These intelligent boxes download new music at night so they don't overtax your internet connection. If you lose your network connection, no problem! The player can keep on playing with its existing settings. Installation couldn't be simplier: Connect one end to your speaker system and the other end to your internet connection. That's pretty much it!

FAQ

What makes SUBWAY® Radio different?
Unlike other in-store music sources, Subway® Radio uses a download and store forward system, which means you will never have interruptions in service due to bad internet connections or interrupted signals. No commercials, no DJ's, no interruptions. Songs by major label artists are added daily to keep the Subway® experience fresh, and brand-focused messages/ ads can be frequently changed or updated.
What equipment is required?
A hosted media player or SUBWAY® T.V. per store and an existing sound system (receiver/tuner and speakers).
Why choose SUBWAY® Radio over other music options?
Plug us in, and enjoy the entertainment along with satisfied customers and staff!

The screened music and SUBWAY®-generated messages/ads allow you to play music for your customers without worrying about offensive content.

ALL music licensing fees are included!
All fees are covered, so you don't run the risk of getting a hefty fine for each store that's playing music unlawfully.

You get consistent BRANDING!
Every day, all day, the customized music and messaging optimizes your brand experience!

ADVANTAGES

It is illegal to play copyrighted streaming, radio, or other music in your store and sound quality and volume can vary from song to song. SUBWAY® Radio guarantees that all music and messages/ads are appropriate and chosen specifically to support your brand

Our media player receives continuous data from a broadband connection, providing great, static-free sound regardless of location, obstructions or weather conditions.

Because radio isn't customizable, it's littered with DJ chatter, promos and other distractions that aren't focused on your brand.
Are all my music licensing fees covered?
Yes, unless your store uses music sources other than SUBWAY® Radio (CDs, DJs, live music or broadcast radio). Then you are responsible for direct payment of copyright fees to ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, and for any sound recordings.
Can I install the media player on my own?
Sure, all you need is a sound system and connection point to your router. Click here for support, or you can call our customer support at 800-584-4653 x2
