Volumio Rivo Plus Special Edition – with Hand-Crafted Florentine Leather Finishing

The Volumio Rivo Plus is a network transport that deliberately forgoes an internal DAC, focusing entirely on maximally pure digital signal processing. The Special Edition maintains this technical foundation while adding leather finishing crafted in collaboration with Florence's Apelle Lab.

Such devices have become optimal solutions for home audio enthusiasts wanting to separate network/streaming functions from digital-to-analog conversion. The Rivo Plus serves as the system's digital hub: integrating streaming services, local music libraries, and network storage, then transmitting high-quality audio data to external DACs selected by the user.

The Special Edition's highlight is its redesigned appearance. Instead of merely adding a color option, Volumio complements the fascia with a leather inlay created by Apelle Lab. According to the manufacturer, combining the metal chassis with finely textured leather delivers a significantly more premium appearance and tactile experience, evoking associations with handcrafted furniture or interior design objects.

Under the new "leather dress," the familiar Rivo Plus operates unchanged. Running Volumio OS, it supports UPnP/DLNA, OpenHome, Apple AirPlay, various streaming services, and playback from network servers and USB storage. The price is €1,299.
