The e.One Stream2 is a high-performance asynchronous network bridge
that connects your audio system to the internet and thousands of tracks
of music. The Stream2 retimes data for ultra-low jitter and isolation
from the network environment, combined with robust power supplies
creates the best signal source for your analogue preamp or DAC. The Stream2 is set up to link your Tidal, Qobuz, Spotify and Deezer accounts seamlessly.
The Stream2 has several options that allows you to configure the
unit in the way that works best in your audio system with the option to
output digital or analogue output. The Stream2 supports PCM, DSD and MQA. The display shows DLNA, Sample Rate and Codec, it
can also be configured to see the track information. These features are
controlled with a toggle switch on the rear panel.
