The all-new AlphaTheta XDJ-AN has arrived, bringing together modern music streaming, cloud-based library management, mobile device support and a club-inspired workflow in a compact all-in-one DJ system.
Designed to help DJs bridge the gap between controller-based setups and professional club equipment, the XDJ-AN combines multiple music sources, wireless monitoring and familiar AlphaTheta ergonomics into a single standalone unit.
As an Authorised AlphaTheta Dealer in Ireland, DJBox.ie is proud to bring the latest AlphaTheta products to Irish DJs, whether you're buying your first standalone system or preparing to make the transition to club-standard equipment.
What is the AlphaTheta XDJ-AN?
The AlphaTheta XDJ-AN is a 2-channel all-in-one DJ system designed around a workflow that mirrors professional CDJ and DJM setups while introducing extensive cloud and streaming capabilities.
Rather than relying on a single music source, the XDJ-AN has been built to support modern DJs who prepare music in multiple ways—from USB drives to cloud libraries and compatible streaming services.
Designed to Make the Step Up to Club DJing Easier
According to AlphaTheta, many DJs begin their journey using controllers before eventually encountering club installations based around CDJs and DJM mixers.
The XDJ-AN has been developed specifically to ease that transition by providing:
- A club-inspired operating layout
- Standalone performance
- Multiple music source support
- Familiar professional workflow
- Cloud-connected music management
Its layout is based on AlphaTheta's professional CDJ and DJM series equipment, helping users become comfortable with workflows they'll encounter in clubs and venues.
Direct Access to Music Streaming
One of the biggest additions is StreamingDirectPlay.
The XDJ-AN can access compatible streaming services directly from the unit, allowing DJs to mix streamed tracks alongside music stored on USB drives.
Supported streaming services include:
- Apple Music
- Beatport Streaming
- TIDAL
- Spotify (planned in a future update)
AlphaTheta also includes an Info Search function capable of recommending related tracks based on the currently playing artist or album, making music discovery faster while performing.
Cloud-Based Library Management Without a Computer
The XDJ-AN introduces cloud workflow improvements that reduce dependence on a laptop.
Using Cloud Library Sync with a compatible rekordbox subscription, DJs can:
- Create playlists
- Edit playlists
- Rename playlists
- Reorder tracks
- Add or remove songs
- Store playlists in the cloud
- Synchronise Hot Cues automatically
Changes made directly on the XDJ-AN are synchronised with the cloud, allowing the same rekordbox library to stay updated across compatible devices.
Mobile Device Support
For the first time in an AlphaTheta all-in-one DJ system, the XDJ-AN works with supported mobile DJ applications.
Compatible software includes:
- rekordbox for iOS
- djay for iOS
- DJM-REC
This allows DJs to perform using tracks stored on supported mobile devices and also supports live streaming and recording through the DJM-REC application.
Familiar Club-Standard Workflow
The XDJ-AN is designed to feel familiar to DJs progressing towards professional installations.
AlphaTheta states that its layout is based on the company's CDJ players and DJM mixers, helping beginners and controller users develop workflows that transfer naturally into clubs.
The system also supports playback from:
- USB storage devices
- Compatible DJ software on Mac and Windows
- Mobile devices via supported applications
Built-In SonicLink Wireless Monitoring
The XDJ-AN includes a built-in SonicLink transmitter.
When paired with compatible SonicLink headphones such as the HDJ-F10, DJs can monitor wirelessly without requiring an external transmitter.
AlphaTheta specifies latency as low as 9 milliseconds, allowing near real-time wireless cue monitoring.

It also includes:
