MATRIX AUDIO ELEMENT S

Element S is the first music streamer from Matrix Audio with USB DAC outputs.

It easily allows you to add audio streaming functionality to your existing audio system. The Element S has numerous digital output ports, not limited to USB ports, suitable for various outdated DACs. It is an essential upgrade device for audio streaming in your system and helps you embrace the world of audio streaming.

With MA Player, users can control audio devices on the network via mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, browse and play music from network drives or USB storage devices. It also integrates streaming technologies such as Roon Ready, DLNA/UPnP, AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, and TIDAL Connect, enabling you to experience high-resolution audio streaming on your local network.

The MA Remote App is available for iPhone, iPad, and Android phones. Through this app, you can browse and play music from your local music library, enjoy music from TIDAL, Qobuz, and HIGHRESAUDIO, and listen to Internet radio from Matrix Audio devices. Configurations and firmware updates for the music streamer can also be done via the app.

Element S is equipped with a 3.46" high-resolution touch screen that features an advanced and interactive UI, allowing you to easily operate the device and accurately understand its status. When streaming music is playing, the metadata, including album art, album name, track title, and artist, will be displayed. This enables you to better understand the music information and enjoy a better listening experience.

The USB DAC interface is a digital audio interface that surpasses traditional ports such as optical and coaxial, providing high-resolution PCM or DSD audio data. With this interface, USB-input DACs can be connected to the Element S, enabling easy online and local audio streaming for your existing audio system. The USB DAC interface has a low-noise 5V/1A power output. The power is processed through a multi-stage ultra-low-noise linear regulator and a power filter circuit before being supplied to the USB device to ensure better performance.

Both Ethernet and Wi-Fi connections are available. Gigabit Ethernet ensures the stability and speed of high-resolution audio transmission on the network. If you have good Wi-Fi coverage, 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi connections are also great options.
