You can download free copies of Airfoil Speakers for all available platforms right from the Airfoil Speakers site. Airfoil Speakers is available for the following platforms:

To get started, just run Airfoil Speakers on any device where you want to receive audio. You can download Airfoil Speakers right from our site.
