The iFi Audio NEO Stream 3 is a highly advanced network streamer with an integrated DAC, designed for audiophile applications at a reference level. It combines the excellent DAC section of the NEO iDSD 2 with the latest generation of the proprietary streaming architecture. Native playback of PCM up to 768 kHz and DSD512 enables high-resolution, bit-perfect music reproduction. The integrated K2HD technology from JVCKENWOOD restores lost harmonic content, giving digital recordings analog depth and musicality. The device supports a variety of modern streaming formats, including Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Qobuz Connect, Apple AirPlay, and DLNA/UPnP. It is also Roon Ready. It features numerous digital and analog interfaces, providing maximum connection flexibility. The innovative OptiBox connection implements a galvanically isolated optical network connection with reclocking, effectively reducing jitter. Precise timing is managed by a Femto-Precision Clock system, supported by iPurifier and ANC noise suppression technology. Thanks to the modern operating system and the compatible Nexis app, setup is particularly user-friendly. The ability to choose between four digital filter modes, as well as separate signal processing for PCM and DSD, allows for fine-tuning at the highest level. With its elegant aluminum housing, compact dimensions, and flexible placement design, the NEO Stream 3 offers a compelling overall package for discerning listeners. Additionally, the device impresses with its quiet and efficient power supply, a wide range of accessories included, and its ability to function as a pure streaming bridge.
