Not Adidas of Germany but DSAS of France – It's Métronome's new streamer [€5'990] in their Digital Sharing range which runs on Audirvana Studio for navigation of up to 4TB of onboard SSD storage; or to access the endless cloud-based libraries of Apple, Qobuz, Tidal & Bros. Audirvana's code lives on a 4GB RAM processor running Linux and the user controls sit on a mobile Android or iOS app. There's a USB port for an external drive or disk; RJ45 and WiFi; a USB output to a DAC, Ethernet and Chromecast. High-quality on-the-fly upsampling with the SoX or R8brain logarithms includes resampling up to DSD 1'024. There's even an embedded 10-band parametric EQ. Purchase of the DSAS includes a 3-year subscription to Audirvana Studio and an unlimited license to Audirvana Origin to interface with one's local music library.
