The  MX-Stream  is  a  universal,  transport-only  network  device  that  can  take  any  online  or  network 
streaming  service  to  your  integrated  amplifier  or  DAC.  All  you need  is an  existing USB  Class  2.0  Audio 
input.  The  MX-

Stream’s  digital  audio  circuitry  is  a  complete  custom  design  from  scratch.

  We  have 

separate  power  supplies  and  high-end  voltage  stabilization  components  for all  the  different PCB units. 
We have advanced re-clocking 

 even the main CPU is operated by an audio optimized clock, which is 

completely  unheard  in  typical  streaming  solutions,  as  they  typically  run  with  standard  CPU  clocks  like 
those in regular computers. Every incoming digital signal is cleaned up from the very beginning. All audio 
files that come in and out, are the best they can be by eliminating all unwanted noise that can be found 
in  common  streaming  solutions.  With  an  optimized  software,  we  were  able  to  push  this  high-tech 
hardware  design  to  its  absolute  limits.  All  of  this resulted in  the  first near-zero  jitter  streamer  we  have 
ever seen. 
 
The MX-Stream is the perfect add-on for any integrated amplifier or DAC with USB B input. Not only is 
the technology inside the MX-Stream complete cutting-edge high-end, every analog circuit in integrated 
analog amps displays increased performance, when digital circuits and power supplies are kept separate 
from  the  analog  circuitry.  By  squeezing  in  a  lot  of  digital  circuits,  additional  high  frequency  distortion 
across the entire system can be observed. Coming from the other direction, huge power supplies for pre 
and  power  amps  with  lots  of  magnetic  radiation  impact  digital  circuit  performance  negatively.  By 
keeping streaming and amplification separate we can achieve our true high-end sound vision to greater 
effect and at a more affordable cost, while also guaranteeing the longest lifetime of our amplifiers and 
streamers.
