Who’s the Metrum Acoustics Ambre for? Well… for who doesn’t? The only threshold to purchase the locker is that you have to work with ROON. But also that… why not? We love ROON. And it can also be used on a (fast) NAS of for example Synology or Qnap.
Metrum Acoustics shows with the Ambre that excellent reproduction quality does not have to cost a god’s fortune. For 1200 euros you can get a beautiful musical device in your house. Especially in combination with an Onyx, Jade, Pavane or Adagio with I2S module you play the stars of the sky. Highly recommended and so Alpha Approved!
Hello Thomas,
Nice set-up and great to hear you like the Ambre. If a piece of equipment fits right into a set than that’s all you can ask for. Happy listening!
Greetings

Hi Geoff, thank you very much and of course thank you for the beautiful report about the Ambre. Unfortunately, I did not know the company Metrum Acoustics before. Very interesting also that the MA DACs are used to cut vinyl, at least in the conversion of digital studio material. A nice weekend
The test convinced me and I ordered the Ambre to test it. I can’t use the better I2S connecter but maybe later. ROON runs on a MacBookPro M1 – USB C to Ethernet cable – MA Ambre – Grimm Audio TPR XLR AES cable – Backes & Müller BM ICE etc. Before that was ROON on the Mac M1 – USB cable – Mutec MC3+ USB – Grimm Audio TPR XLR – Backes & Müller BM ICE 525 etc. In my setup, the Ambre sounds very neutral with a somewhat restrained treble that fits perfectly with the linear frequency response. Very stable and precise stage in width and height. In the middle you would think there is an additional monitor! Very amazing at a good price. I don’t know if it could be done even better!?
