To be clear, this isa “UPnP/DLNA” (IE: networked audio renderer) compatible streaming device that requires using a dedicated PC or MAC (IE: iOS or Android). Meaning that unlike many current steaming devices, the e.One REFStream was designed to be used as a source to access or stream stored music from a external drive or NAS(network access storage). Also known as a networked media server using QNAP or Synology. To accomplish this requires using(downloading) a software controller program. The users guide recommends using “JRiver”. I reached it to Bel Canto directly and they recommended using the “MConnect Player” as a controller instead. Doing this will also give you access to streaming via Tidal and Qobuz, which typically one cannot do on a UPnP/DLNA streaming device.
Because of the vintage of this unit, there is not a lot to tell about it in terms of connectivity options, which are: 1 x ST/Glass,1 x SPDIF, 1 x Ethernet. FYI: it does notinclude the BNC to RCA adapter. If you are able to utilize this particular type of streaming device in your system, you will be rewarded with that great Bel Canto digital sound!
