It is packaged complete of functions which includes USB, HDMI, coaxial and optical digital
inputs; Ethernet music streaming controlled via dedicated iOS and Android applications; and aptX Bluetooth for
wireless streaming from mobile phones, tablets and personal computers. Coax and HDMI inputs
support computer audio PCM files right up to 24-bit/192kHz, while the optical input supports PCM up to 24-bit/96kHz.VanguardDAC

The digital-to-analogue output conversion stage features 32-bit ESS Sabre DACs (as used in Krell’s top-of-the-line
Cipher SACD player) and feeds a traditional Krell discrete well balanced output stage.
It additionally has two HDMI 2.0 inputs to support DSD and 4K content, and an HDMI output to your screen, which smartly includes an Audio Return Channel for use with smart TV streaming services such as Netflix, Vudu and Pandora.Plus
there are iOS and Android applications for control and music operations – so it’s very much right up to date.
