Stereophile: MU1 is “Recommended Component 2021”

March 26, 2021

The MU1 has been added to Stereophiles’ famed “recommended components” list as a top ranking “A+” device! We are extremely proud to be granted this recommendation. From the jury report:

“John Atkinson very much preferred the sound from the AES/EBU outputs, finding that the upsampling of CD-resolution data reduced congestion, added depth to the soundstage, and increased the separation among acoustic objects in that soundstage. John Atkinson recommended the MU1 highly as a streamer, writing that it can also operate as a network bridge with legacy D/A processors that don’t have USB or Ethernet ports, and that it can be used as the sole source component with active speakers that have digital inputs.”
