Harman Luxury Audio
The Harman Luxury Audio integrationIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] lets you control network streamers built on the Harman Luxury Audio (StreamUnlimited StreamSDK) platform, such as the Arcam Radia ST5 and ST60, and equivalent JBL and Mark Levinson streamers.
It talks to the device directly on your local network; no cloud account is required.
Configuration
To add the Harman Luxury Audio device to your Home Assistant instance, use this My button:
Harman Luxury Audio can be auto-discovered by Home Assistant. If an instance was found, it will be shown as Discovered. You can then set it up right away.
Manual configuration steps
If it wasn’t discovered automatically, don’t worry! You can set up a manual integration entry:
-
Browse to your Home Assistant instance.
-
In the bottom right corner, select the
Add Integration button. -
From the list, select Harman Luxury Audio.
-
Follow the instructions on screen to complete the setup.
Devices are discovered automatically over SSDP. You can also add one manually by entering its hostname or IP address.
Supported devices
The following devices are known to work:
- Arcam Radia ST5
- Arcam Radia ST60
Other streamers on the same Harman Luxury Audio / StreamUnlimited platform (including JBL and Mark Levinson models) are expected to work but have not all been verified.
Supported functionality
A media player entity is created for the device, exposing:
- Playback state (playing, paused, idle) and standby status
- Now playing information: title, artist, album, artwork, duration, and position
- Volume level and mute
- Transport controls (play, pause, stop, next, previous)
Known limitations
- Power cannot be controlled from Home Assistant. The device only reports its power state; it is switched on and off by its own remote, front panel, or automatic standby. The media player reports
offwhen the device is in standby but does not offer power on/off. - Transport control depends on the active source. Spotify Connect and AirPlay are controlled by the sending app: the device can pause them, but only the source app can resume. Because of this, transport buttons are shown only when the current source reports them as available. For those sources, use the originating app to start or resume playback.
