Network Transport
The Network Transport models are dedicated to delivering network audio playback at the highest
quality by focusing purely on transport functionality. They can seamlessly integrate with external
DACs through digital connectivity. Leveraging Rose’s hallmark wide-angle multi-touch screen and
innovative ROSE OS, users can intuitively and conveniently stream not only music but also video content.
Network Streamer
The Network Streamer models are products that combine Transport and DAC into a single device,
designed based on ROSE’s unique design expertise and platform accumulated over many years.
ROSE OS, which offers various services along with the hallmark wide-angle multi-touch screen,
provides an innovative listening experience.
Network All-In-One
The Network All-In-One models are integrated systems that include network transport, DAC, and
amplifier functionalities. With only speakers required, these products allow for the easy setup of a
complete audio system with a single device. Utilizing ESS DAC chips and the Class AD amplifier
module, developed in-house and incorporating GaN FET achieves both innovative features and clear
high-quality sound simultaneously.
DAC
ROSE has consciously taken its time to perfect the centrepiece of a modern high-end system,
the DAC. Using specially developed cutting-edge technology, it transforms digital signals
into pure worlds of sound - unadulterated, precise and full of detail. For connoisseurs, this
means Music in its most original form, made possible by the highest engineering skill and an
unmistakable sound design.
Amplifier
The Amplifier line-up consists of cutting-edge amplifiers that surpass the limitations of conventional
amps by incorporating the latest innovative state-of-the-art technologies. Our proprietary Class AD
maintains powerful damping power, the efficiency and power amplification characteristics of
traditional Class D amplifiers, while delivering pure, natural, and vivid sound reminiscent of analog.
ROSE Connect
ROSE Connect includes a Dedicated Remote Control Application that allows users to conveniently
control and smartly manage ROSE devices. The remote control application works on various
platforms including iPhone, iPad, Android devices, and PC.
