The FiiO S15 is the first “full-size” streamer from this manufacturer that fits neatly into a rack (or stack), making it a perfect match for the rest of your setup!
With the new FiiO S15, you have plenty of flexibility. Thanks to its Android 12 operating system, you can install various streaming apps as needed. The device is controlled via a generously sized 7.84-inch color touchscreen. Under the hood, FiiO has opted for the DAC chip combination of the AK4191 and AK4499EX. One key advantage of this duo is that it keeps the digital and analog sections completely separate.
In addition to network streaming via NAS, LAN, and cloud servers, you can also play music directly from USB sticks and microSD cards. On the network side, the S15 is Roon Ready and supports Apple AirPlay and DLNA. Bluetooth is also included, making it a highly versatile unit. Furthermore, music services such as Spotify and Amazon Music are integrated.
A practical addition is HDMI ARC support, allowing you to use the streamer for TV audio playback. A linear low-noise power supply rounds out the package. The price of the FiiO S15 is quite reasonable—you can get one for €1,099.
