Watch Your Favorite Videos in Ultra HD 4K Every HiFi Rose streamer goes beyond audio with a 4K capable HDMI output for video.
Our custom RoseTube app delivers YouTube content with a custom interface that is optimized for music lovers. You'll find curated music videos, concerts, and be able to connect to your own YouTube account. TIDAL subscribers also have access to a large library of iconic music videos as well as unique TIDAL video content. The VIDEO app provides access to your locally stored media, whether on the internal storage or networked drive.
Internal Storage Options and Local Digital Music Libraries Easily add a 2.5-inch SSD hard drive inside your HiFi Rose to store your local music collection. This also unlocks additional functionality, including the ability to cache your most played music on TIDAL and videos on RoseTube to maintain error-free playback even when your internet connection isn't at 100%.
Linear Power Circuit Design The full linear power supply provides a clean, reliable power supply to the CPU and audio output circuits. The design blocks noise that could potentially affect the sensitive DAC; the result is crystal-clear playback.
CD Playback & CD Ripping With the RS201E, you can play and rip music on a CD by connecting our optional RSA-780 external CD drive via USB. You can extract the sound source from CDs as WAV or FLAC files and save them to SSD or USB.
