HiFi Rose - RS250A Network Streamer

Your High-Res Music Concierge: Roon-Ready HiFi Rose RS250A Network Streamer Features Flagship SABRE DAC, Versatile Connectivity, Touchscreen

Just like your good friends who tip you to artists you never knew about, the HiFi Rose RS250A network streamer acts as an in-the-know concierge and time-saving personal assistant in the way it organizes music, invites you to tap into plentiful streaming options, and simplifies your setup. It contains an ESS SABRE ES9028PRO DAC, integrated amplifier, and network streamer under the same aluminum hood. Better still: RS250A conveys what you hear (and the 4K video you see) with addictive detail, big dynamics, and smooth tonality.

Able to play high-resolution music up to 32-bit/768kHz and DSD512, the Room-ready RS250A fully decodes MQA files and plays video files via its HDMI connection in Ultra HD 4K quality. Its audiophile-grade sections and parts — a shielded linear power supply, discrete OP amp, Femto oscillator, and hex-core CPU included — parallel the quality of its construction, which extends to a robust aluminum casing and 8.8-inch color touchscreen. RSA250A is simple and fun to operate. Bluetooth remote functionality, a setup wizard, and the Rose app give you complete control. As does support for optional CD playing/ripping, OTA software updates, hard-disc and HDD storage, Apple AirPlay, DLNA, and more.

If you’re bringing RSA250A into an existing system, you’ll find a connection for practically any setup. Ethernet, USB, HDMI, coaxial, optical, and analog outputs complement USB, optical, coaxial, and analog inputs. RSA250 seamlessly meshes with traditional gear such as DACs, amps, and attached passive speakers as well as active powered speakers and computers.

Flagship DAC

RS250A features a built-in ESS flagship DAC (ES9028PRO) that provides low-noise, low-distortion ultra-high-resolution sound and rich analog density through proprietary processing that supports PCM 32-bit/768KHz and native DSD512 (22.5792Mhz).

Linear Power Circuit 

A shielded, fully linear power supply provides a clean, reliable power supply to the CPU and audio output circuits. Noise that may be transmitted to sensitive DAC is blocked for the best possible sound reproduction.

Ultra HD 4K Video Playback 

Enjoy video files from storage devices or streaming media from ROSE Tube/TIDAL/Bugs via HDMI connection in Ultra HD 4K quality on the device's large display.
