Roon-Ready Arcam Radia ST5 Network Streamer Plays Music with Noteable Clarity: Includes SABRE DAC, Decodes MQA, Supports AirPlay 2 and Chromecast
Sleek, intuitive, convenient, flexible: The Arcam Radio ST5 network streamer is made for modern hi-fi listening. A seamless match with any Arcam Radia Series integrated amplifier, the Roon-ready component jibes with all major streaming services; supports Apple AirPlay 2 and Chromecast; decodes MQA; and plays up to 24-bit/192kHz and DSD128. All digital audio passes through analog outputs by way of an ESS ES9018 DAC featuring extremely low jitter and superb timing properties.
Able to be controlled via the Arcam app or supplied remote control, ST5 connects to both Wi-Fi and Ethernet. A control link lets you operate it and a partnering Radio integrated as one unit while enjoying the benefit of isolated components with separate power supplies. Measuring 2.31 x 17 x 13.56 inches (HWD), ST5 fits in tight spots and boasts robust construction. A coax output, optical output, trigger in/out, and USB-A input add to its versatility — including the ability to be paired with an external DAC if you choose.
Sonically, ST5 is classic Arcam, emphasizing clarity and detail while keeping ruinous distortion and noise at bay. A five-year manufacturer warranty and clean architecture round out a streamer built for any lifestyle.
