Music Streamers

Focussed on ‘digital’ perfection, Stream X Signature is our flagship streamer, providing simply peerless sound quality from TIDAL, internet radio, or your locally stored audio files. Controlled using our ‘Cadence’ app, you can search tracks from your complete library and play them at the touch of a button. A dedicated linear power supply helps produce a rich, refined experience that will help you rediscover your love for pure music. Streaming services such as Tidal and Qobuz provide a convenient way of accessing vast catalogues of superb quality recordings. Far from being just for listening on the go through your mobile phone, these streaming services are more than good enough to be considered audiophile sources. They are now leading the way in delivering the next generation of audio experiences. Our approach in designing the Stream X Signature is to provide a product which is simply, but brilliantly dedicated to the task of retrieving audio data from on-line music streaming services, internet radio channels, USB drives or your own digital library of music files. The Stream X Signature ‘cleans’ the data to perfection, then produces a re-clocked digital signal (PCM) to output into one of our (or a similar hi-fi brand) digital amplifier products (the 6DAC, 82DAC, Pre2DAC or DACXP).High-end digital audio products such as the Stream X Signature cannot be described in terms of specifications or statistics. Instead, they demand to be ‘experienced’. Only then can the listener full appreciate the difference that the combination of components, software, re-clocking and resampling can make to the output signal.

The Stream Xa brings your digital music library, and streaming services like TIDAL and internet radio together through our proprietary engine to provide limitless hours of listening pleasure. State-of-the-art performance is served up through our unique understanding of converting data into sublime analogue signals – and how to handle each format for optimum results. You just sit back and control it all with our ‘Cadence’ app. Streaming services such as Tidal provide a convenient way of accessing vast catalogues of superb quality recordings. Far from being just for listening on the go through your mobile phone, these streaming services are more than good enough to be considered audiophile sources. They are now leading the way in delivering the next generation of audio experiences.The Stream Xa serves two functions, that of translating the multitude of file formats into the purest possible form of digital audio, Linear PCM. As part of this translation, it retimes that data to all but eliminate ‘jitter’ and temporal distortion. The second function is the conversion of that digital data into analogue form, so that it can be passed directly to a traditional amplifier system. With both digital and analogue output options as well as built in wi-fi and ethernet connectivity options, and asynchronous USB input, the Stream Xa is our most versatile streaming solution.The circuit of the Stream Xa has been designed in 2 discrete sections, allowing the product to be upgradeable through the addition of our separate power supply (the PSX R2). This addition completely isolates the DAC section of the product, improving timing and eliminating any intermodulation which can impact the delicate analogue signals output. Whilst not necessary for outstanding performance, this addition is a valuable upgrade for the serious audiophile.

With the Stream Box S2 Ultra we have designed a completely new product in the streaming world. It features never seen control scenarios and unprecedented audio performance. Its main goal is to be a universal device that can get any USB DAC into the network, upgrading your favourite high-end DAC with modern and future proof streaming capabilities.With the gaining ground of internet streaming services, such as TIDAL or Spotify, the consumer‘s interest has shifted towards network enabled devices. Many great sounding products though do not offer any network ability, either because they are too old or their main focus was not on this subject. The solution has often been to replace them with a new and modern device, stream audio via Bluetooth or to comprimise and use a smartphone or tablet via their analogue ouput to feed active speakers or amplifiers.Stream Box S2 Ultra closes the gap, it offers modern connectivity with its network inputs and USB A output.This USB output is perfectionized for audio signals, it uses a dedicated internal power supply and only top audiophile grade components. You won‘t run into file-support issues, as Stream Box S2 Ultra acts as a network bridge, bypassing the files directly to your digital to analogue converter. Since most DACs only have one USB input, we have designed Stream Box S2 Ultra also to be a USB detox device. Simply connect your PC to the micro USB input of the unit and connect our DAC to the audio output. This way you can clean the noisy signal of your PC, while enjoying your music with it.The new remote control iOS and Android App is based on an opensource project and has a large community behind it. This guarantees full support and future improvements. Stream Box S2 Ultra is fully remoteable via smart devices and a regular web-browser. It offers support for the most popular streaming services: Spotify and TIDAL. Both services offer you a sheer endless amount of music, guaranteeing you, that you never run out of music to listen to. By implementing Shoutcast, we also give you the option to listen to various internet radio stations. You can listen to your favourite radio shows, the news and discover new channels from all around the world – with just a few clicks.The back-sided HDMI video output lets you connect your monitor to the Stream Box S2 Ultra. It will then show you the graphic user interface, ready to act on your commands. With the implementation of Shairport we were even able to give the iDevice users out there another possibilty to send data to our Stream Box S2 Ultra.There are two USB inputs on Stream Box S2 Ultra, one front sided and one back sided. Both give you the possibi-lity to connect an external harddrive to the unit. Via one of the various control scenarios (App, Webbrowser, external monitor) you can pick from your own selection of audio. The file system support goes up to PCM 32bit / 352.8 kHz and DSD256.Here at Pro-Ject, we are big supporters of the Roon software, that is why we wanted the Stream Box S2 Ultra to be Roon Ready. This way you can simply pick your Stream Box S2 Ultra in the Roon interface and send bit-perfect audio streams to it over your network. This incredible feature set makes Stream Box S2 Ultra bullet-proof for all future events. Together with Pre Box S2 Digital they become the most versatile and audiophile set in its price class. Features:High resolution network bridgeAudio optimized USB A outputMulti-room enabledDual USB A input for external storageTIDAL supportedSpotifyNetwork-enables any modern DAC with USB inputInternet RadioDLNA enabledBypasses all audio formats to the DACCleans up the audio signal from a PCRoon Ready (in progress)ShairportBluetoothUses dedicated power suppliesHDMI video outputControllable via smart devices and PC/LaptopNew control app!Ethernet and WiFi connectivity 

The design of the HDA range draws upon all of Arcam’s experience as one of the UK’s most respected audio companies, to produce Arcam’s best performing range of audio products yet – using the best quality components and engineering practices, the HDA range is designed and built to give you years of listening enjoyment.CDS50Our most advanced cd, digital audio and network streaming player yetIn a sense, digital audio doesn’t exist. You’d have to be a particularly dull superhero to possess ears that can decode the millions of 1’s and 0’s that make up your CD collection or iTunes library. Whatever the source – be it a laptop, CD player, smartphone, USB stick – the result is just a vibration in your speakers. In other words, it all winds up analogue in the end.Arguably, when playing from a digital format, the most vital component is the DAC, or Digital to Analogue Converter. We’ll spare you the bulk of the science, but this is what translates that otherwise lifeless binary code into audible sound energy.Bit-depth, meanwhile, is a key measure of audio quality.So, if you’re listening to a 24-bit WAV copy of your favourite album through a DAC that only converts to 16-bit, there’s a good chunk of detail going to waste right there.That’s why we’ve included 32-bit DACs on the entire HDA range – the most commonly used bit-depth in digital recording – so you’re guaranteed the full aural picture of whatever the artist intended. Features :Plays all disc formats, including SACD, CD-A, CD-R and CD-RWSupports audio file formats including FLAC, WAV, AIFF, OGG, MP3, AAC and WMAUSB inputSuperb 32-bit DAC built inStreaming through the music life appTotal harmonic distortion + noise = 0.002%
