Like we did with HYPSOS, BROEN’s design starts at the very beginning of any digital transport, a sequence of zeros and ones and keeps it as clean as it possibly can. From beginning to end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeveloped as a premium network streaming transport, BROEN operates exclusively in the digital domain, providing a clean and precise digital signal path while offering flexible connectivity, intuitive operation, and extensive streaming support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis meant going back to the digital drawing board and creating a new digital heart for BROEN, called SERCE DDC. While keeping the in- and output domains perfectly separated and the audio outputs isolated, BROEN uses galvanically isolated audio outputs and ultra-low jitter audio clocks to preserve signal integrity throughout the entire playback chain. We also introduced an SFP socket to give our community the ultimate choice in digital connectivity, offering wireless as standard, plus electrical (RJ45 ethernet) and optical (SFP) options for communication with the home network. An SFP module for connecting an Ethernet cable is supplied with BROEN as part of the package. Supporting the most relevant streaming options, we also offer an internal SSD slot for physical storage of your music files. Last but not least BROEN is expandable with WANDLA to create the ultimate streaming DAC combo and upgradable with HYPSOS.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade for Streaming\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBROEN is Powered by Volumio. This means you get full access to the Volumio streaming ecosystem, loved by more than half a million users, with Spotify \u0026amp; Spotify Connect, TIDAL \u0026amp; TIDAL Connect, Qobuz \u0026amp; Qobuz Connect, AirPlay, UPnP\/DLNA renderer, web radios, CD playback, multi-room playback, AI-powered SuperSearch, Infinity Playback, and extended album\/artist metadata.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade for HYPSOS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBROEN performs beautifully right out of the box, but you can take its performance above and beyond when pairing it with HYPSOS. Using the proprietary Ferrum Power Link (FPL) connection with 4TSD voltage sensing, both components communicate to maximize electrical performance and perform to their absolute maximum, unleashing unheard-of musicality.

When connected via USB, artist information, album details, title information, and playback status will be displayed on WANDLA’s screen and can be controlled with a finger’s touch on WANDLA’s screen or remote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTogether, BROEN and WANDLA create a fully integrated streaming DAC and preamplifier solution, optimized specifically to work together as a single Ferrum ecosystem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade for the Future\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith BROEN you get over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates, and a plugin capable platform that allows new functionality to be added over time. Apart from including an internal SSD slot, we’ve added an SFP slot where you have the option of using a standard SFP ethernet module or an SFP optical module to connect to an SFP switch keeping noise to an absolute minimum when connecting to the outside world. These features will keep BROEN up to date and future proof for many more years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBROEN’s front panel has also been developed with simplicity and ease of use in mind, providing intuitive day-to-day operation while allowing listeners to spend less time navigating menus and more time enjoying music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0065\/4432\/6771\/files\/Preliminary-image-BROEN-rear-1024x642.jpg?v=1783438526\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e With BROEN you get abundant options to connect your digital streaming sources to the digital output of your preference, be it AES\/EBU, S\/PDIF coaxial, S\/PDIF optical, I2S and USB (A+C).
