I purchased this item to pair with my Luxman R-115 stereo receiver circa 1987. The Luxman R-115 is now used in my office at work. The Luxman only has RCA inputs so, I needed a device that would accept a USB drive for my digital tunes but output to RCA connections.

Does what I need it to do but will do tons more; Really solid build quality

Would love a better app or WEB app; Flash drive needs to plug directly in the unit with no extension wire

I am using this in my main system connected to a Monarchy DAC. The build quality is very good and it the operation interface is good, but not great. It functions almost as advertised.

For the price and after reviewing several other streamers, this Yamaha is well worth the money and holds its own against any higher priced streaming device!

Easy setup; Great sound

I regret replacing a ChromeCast Audio device (and SoundBridge before that) with this. Nothing but problems since day one. I have spent significantly more time reinstalling, reconfiguring, and changing WiFi settings than listening to music.

Absolutely great little app which I have got an old quad 306 on the end Jb control 1 pros and an sb5 sub. The sound is superb and it's easy to hook up to Bluetooth devices. The app is very good for basic stuff , I am sure they will develop it over time.

I have been using the product for few months now. It is excellent. It plays my music from Windows 10 server (windows media player/turn on media streaming) all ripped in FLAC from CDs with no problem.

A small preamp can do a whole lot of mighty things, as our reviewer finds out when he took this Yamaha streaming preamplifier on a test run.

+ Small footprint; Tremendous bass and excellent on vocals; A little hot on top, so system matching is paramount; And when you get it right, this is one exciting pre-amp with excellent PRAT

– Sans phono input and sadly no SPDIF input either; Otherwise excellent value for money

I have been delighted with this pre-amp running as a streamer in my existing Naim based system. Highly recommended, easy to setup, superb sound quality, simple to use app on iOS and at a very low cost.

A fantastic product for the price! Networked via a whole-home wired Ethernet in the Player and Direct mode, Enhancer and Bass Extension disabled, a pair of WXC-50s on the network pulling music from a DLNA server, playing back through its internal DAC via AudioQuest BigSur cabling: - Sounds extremely...

Multiroom audio is all over the place now, but the company to come up with the best name was also the first: Yamaha. It called and calls its system "MusicCast", and first launched it way back in 2003, a year before there was even a Sonos prototype.

First class multiroom streaming system; quality audio products; support high resolution audio
