What HFL Thinks
Nagra Streamer – In 1951, Stefan Kudelski, a gifted 22-year-old engineer, developed an extremely high quality, miniature, self-contained audio recorder which he named simply the “Nagra I”. Nagra is a Polish word meaning “will record”. The interest in his invention was immediate. The Nagra II and III followed in the mid to late ‘50s revolutionizing the world of radio broadcasting, cinema and music. Nagra even made it to space with the Apollo mission.
Nagra Streamer
The Streamer comes in a chassis that is the size of the legendary Nagra VII. Just as the Nagra Classic line form factor was derived from the Nagra V and our HD line of products from the Nagra VI, the Streamer had to compliment the form factor of our best digital recorder, the Nagra VII.
The chassis of the Streamer is compact yet massive – precisely CNC machined from a solid billet of aluminum. It is rugged and rigid. It was designed to be as large as necessary but no larger. As a result, it allows for efficient placement on often equipment filled racks where space is a premium. This Streamer’s footprint allows it to be installed close to your IT equipment and to be connected to your DAC by the means of a long optical cable.
The Streamer features:
- Qobuz Connect
- Tidal connect
- Spotify connect
- Roon ready & Roon Tested
- Plāys With Audirvāna
- JPLAY Certified
- Airplay 2 (for Apple devices)
- UPnP / dlna for local files
- vTuner (access to thousands of radio stations
The mConnect control app (free and available for Apple and Android tablets or phones) allows you to control your files and get the software updates. You can also play files directly from a USB key or a USB hard drive. The Streamer connects to your network with an RJ45 cable. In terms of output, it features an N-Link output for Nagra DACs (using a customer supplied optical fiber) as well as SPDIF connection for other DACs.
The Streamer comes with its own external power supply. You can further improve its sound quality by using a Nagra ACPS, MPS or a Classic PSU 12 V power supply. Nagra is all about music. The Nagra Streamer is the missing link between modern music sources and your high quality set-up. It extends your listening pleasure to virtually the universe of recorded music via digital streams and high resolution files. We think that you will find that it was worth the wait.
