Стримеры — Arylic LP100

The LP100 is a network music streamer from Arylic that combines streaming, a DAC, an ADC, digital-to-digital conversion and a phono input in one compact box. It lists at USD 399. It has no screen and instead uses a colour-changing light strip, and control comes from a rotary knob with touch buttons, an included BLE remote or an optional lifestyle remote.

Key specs that matter

Conversion to analogue relies on an AKM AK4493SEQ, joined by an AKM AK7735 ADC and DSP and a CT7302SL sample-rate converter, and playback reaches 24-bit and 192 kHz. Arylic quotes frequency response as 20 Hz to 20 kHz within 1 dB, THD+N as 0.001% or lower, and signal-to-noise and crosstalk each as at least 80 dB. The casing measures 167 x 167 x 43.5 mm and weighs 550 g, running from a 5 V, 2 A supply over USB-C. The box includes an RCA cable, USB cables and a power adapter.

Engineering and use context

Streaming covers AirPlay 2, Google Cast, Spotify Connect and Tidal Connect. Networking is by dual-band 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi or a wired RJ45 LAN port. Bluetooth 5.4 runs on a Qualcomm QCC3083 chip with a range of 15 m and handles SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX HD, aptX LL, aptX Adaptive, LDAC and LC3. It can receive from two devices at once or transmit to one, so it can also feed wireless headphones, and Auracast broadcast is supported. Roon Ready and DLNA/UPnP playback are listed, and multiroom works within the AirPlay 2 and Google Cast ecosystems. The Go Control app adds equalisation, and voice control works with Siri and Google Assistant. Inputs include an RCA line input at 2 Vrms, a phono stage accepting MM or MC cartridges with built-in RIAA equalisation, optical and coaxial digital at the same maximum resolution, HDMI eARC with CEC, a USB host port for drives up to 128 GB and a USB-B port that makes it a DAC for a computer. Drives can be formatted as FAT16, FAT32 or exFAT.

Pairing

A speaker output with banana sockets is also present. The RCA line output delivers up to 2 Vrms for an integrated amplifier or powered speakers, and an optical output hands the bitstream on to an outboard converter. A subwoofer output gives up to 3 Vrms with a 250 Hz crossover. Over HDMI eARC a television can send its soundtrack into the unit, and a record player plugs in directly with no outboard phono preamp.

Alternatives

The Arylic S50 Pro+ is a smaller streaming preamplifier from the brand with an ESS Sabre ES9023 DAC.
