French free radio pioneer NRJ innovates once more by providing the world’s first radio station in spatial audio, powered by Ircam Amplify!

About NRJ Group

A leader in audio innovation since its creation in 1981, is the number one private group of digital radio stations in France. NRJ also enhances audio usage through active radio listening via connected speakers: today, NRJ Group is the radio group with the highest audience growth on connected speakers.

Why chose Stereo to Spatial?

Powered by Ircam Amplify, this digital radio uses our groundbreaking Stereo to Spatial module to deliver a 360° immersive sound experience. Through this exclusive technology, we transform the traditional listening experience into a unique sound experience—spatial sound—on whatever device, at any time, and for any content. Every song is transformed, letting listeners hear music in a way they've never experienced before.

How this innovation will elevate NRJ GROUP's offerings

With this world-first spatial radio, called “NRJ Hits XXL Sound”, listeners enjoy a 360° sound experience thanks to immersive listening and dive into a bubble where music fills the entire space and the voice of their favorite artist seems deployed and amplified. Available through the NRJ APP, this free digital radio can be accessed from any device connected to internet. Turn on your headset, wireless earphones or connected speakers, press play, and enjoy exceptional sound to listen to all your hits!

Projected impact and future plans

NRJ has been a tremendous promoter of FM radio, so it makes sense to position themselves today as a promoter of spatial audio with Ircam Amplify. Imagine the thrill of favorite tracks coming to life in a surround sound environment. This innovation not only promises to enhance listeners’ music enjoyment but also strengthens NRJ Group at the forefront of radio premium services.

We are proud to collaborate with NRJ Group to launch the world's first immersive digital radio. Thanks to our exclusive Stereo to Spatial technology, we transform the traditional listening experience into an unprecedented sound experience, in spatial audio, at any time and for all content. This partnership thus democratizes access to high-quality immersive audio, offering listeners, whether through headphones or in the car, the best sound experience available.
