Electrocompaniet is launching new streamers in its EC Living series, RENA S-1 and RENA SA-1, a first subwoofer in its EC Living series, the SIRA-L1 and a completely new network music player in its Classic Line series, the new ECM-1. Both RENA streamers offer access to multiple streaming services including Tidal and Qobuz and support DSD128 and 24/192 PCM, the control app can be used on most touchscreen devices and PCs, and they are Airplay ready. No prices have been announced as yet.
RENA S-1 (above) is a wireless streamer that connects directly to your existing amplifier but can also be used with wireless speakers. It’s the most affordable and future-proof way to step into EC Living, our wireless and modular speaker and streamer system.
RENA SA-1 is a streaming device with a built-in amplifier. Use the 75W class D amplifier to connect to your choice of speakers, and still have the option to connect wireless speakers as either add-on or replacement. Combined with sophisticated high-resolution audio processing, “this amplifier has extremely big sound!”
ECM 1 (below) is a streamer and player, complete with the DAC-section from the ECD 2 and the option of internal music storage. It plays lossless, DSD and high-resolution and can access Tidal, Spotify and Qobuz and can be fed through AirPlay or DLNA. The ECM 1 shares its DNA with the new EC Living line. You can use the same app and interface, playing all your music on all of the units.
SIRA L-1 (below) is a wireless subwoofer with a rather perky stand. It has a seven inch active driver and two passive radiating drivers of the same size designed to cancel vibration. Power is 200W class D and connection 24/96 PCM.
