Description
Next-Level Audio Engineering
Building on the acclaimed RS150B, the RS151 introduces a completely redesigned digital processing core. Featuring the new ROSE DPC™ module and an upgraded Femto Clock, it dramatically reduces jitter and enhances signal accuracy. Upsampling to DSD512 ensures lifelike realism, while its precision-machined aluminum chassis minimizes vibration and heat for uncompromised sound quality.
Immersive Touch Control
The 15.4″ Full HD multi-touch display offers improved clarity and a wider viewing angle compared to its predecessor. With an elegant interface powered by Rose OS, you can browse album artwork, adjust system settings, or monitor playback directly on-screen—no external device required. Customizable VU meters and UI options add both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
Blazing Processing & Expanded Streaming
Equipped with a powerful octa-core processor, 8 GB RAM, and 32 GB storage, the RS151 delivers seamless responsiveness. Stream high-resolution music from Tidal, Qobuz, Spotify, Apple Music, or internet radio with ease. Roon Ready certification and full MQA decoding guarantee audiophile-grade playback without lag.
Beyond Sound: 4K Video & Connectivity
The RS151 doesn’t stop at audio. With HDMI 2.0 output, you can stream video content up to 4K/60Hz, including RoseTube and YouTube integration. An HDMI eARC input lets you elevate TV audio to high-fidelity playback. Connectivity has also been expanded with upgraded coaxial, AES/EBU inputs, and Bluetooth 5.4 with aptX support.
Library Management & Storage
Whether it’s an internal 2.5″ SSD, Micro SD, NAS, or external USB, the RS151 makes it simple to store and organize your music library. Built-in caching for services like Tidal and RoseTube ensures uninterrupted playback even with unstable internet, while efficient file management supports large collections effortlessly.
CD Ripping & Playback
Pair the RS151 with the optional RSA-780 CD drive or a standard external CD-ROM to play discs in real time or rip them directly into your digital library in lossless quality. It transforms into a high-end CD transport while maintaining convenience and precision.
Remote Control & System Integration
Control the RS151 your way—with the included IR remote, the RoseConnect app (iOS, Android, PC), or directly via its responsive touchscreen. Trigger In/Out ports provide seamless integration with the rest of your HiFi system for synchronized operation.
