DENAFRIPS ARCAS Streamer 
 
The ARCAS represents a major evolution from the already acclaimed ARCE streamer, offering refined engineering, expanded connectivity, and upgraded components designed for the most discerning audiophiles.
 
Both models support the industry’s most popular streaming protocols — Roon Bridge (with Roon Ready certification pending), HQPlayer NAA, AirPlay, and DLNA — ensuring seamless integration across a wide variety of playback systems.
 
Where the ARCE impresses, the ARCAS excels. It introduces DENAFRIPS’ custom-designed, hand-selected OCXO (Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator) for ultra-precise timing, and features dual I²S and dual AES/EBU digital outputs for greater flexibility and system matching.
 
Together, these innovations deliver a streamer of exceptional transparency, musicality, and connectivity — enabling listeners to enjoy their music libraries with uncompromised fidelity.
 
 
Power and Precision
 
Ultra-Pure OCC Copper 80VA O-Core Transformer
At the heart of the ARCAS lies a meticulously engineered 80VA O-Core Shielded Transformer, hand-built in-house by DENAFRIPS engineers using UPOCC (Ultra-Pure Ohno Continuous Cast) copper.
This oversized transformer feeds the multi-stage linear power supply, ensuring an abundant, ultra-stable current for all digital circuitry. The result is lower noise, superior dynamic response, and effortlessly natural sound reproduction.
 
 
ARCAS Streamer Anatomy
 
Robust Anodised Aluminium Chassis
The ARCAS features a solid, precision-machined aluminium chassis that not only ensures structural rigidity but also shields the internal components from electromagnetic interference, preserving sonic purity.
 
Uncompromising Sound Quality
Every element of ARCAS is designed with one purpose: to reproduce music with absolute accuracy, depth, and realism. From its clocking precision to its clean power delivery, ARCAS embodies the DENAFRIPS philosophy of “engineering without compromise.”
 
Extensive Streaming Support
ARCAS integrates seamlessly into modern ecosystems with support for Roon Bridge, HQPlayer NAA, AirPlay, and DLNA, giving users complete freedom to choose their preferred playback platform.
 
Versatile Playback Options
Whether streaming from a NAS, USB storage, or SD card, ARCAS offers wide-ranging compatibility for local and networked music sources.
 
Precision Timing & Digital Isolation
Equipped with a high-performance OCXO, ARCAS ensures precise FIFO buffering and reclocking for ultra-low jitter performance. Carefully engineered digital isolation and signal routing further enhance integrity and detail retrieval.
 
Power Supply Excellence
From its non-switched AC mains socket to the in-house O-Core transformer, every design choice serves one purpose — to achieve the cleanest, most stable power delivery possible, laying the foundation for its world-class sonic performance.
 
 
Design & Finish
 
Available in Silver or Black, the ARCAS’ anodised aluminium finish complements both modern and classic audio systems.
This design caters to enthusiasts who value not only compact form factor and engineering excellence, but also audiophile aesthetics that match the sophistication of their listening environment.
