HiFi Rose RS451 Network Network Streamer and DAC

Uncompromised Fidelity in a Compact Form

The HiFi Rose RS451 distills the essence of reference-grade performance into a more compact, desktop-friendly design. Built around ROSE’s advanced DPC™ Digital Processing Core and NRA™ Noise Reduction Analog architecture, it delivers astonishingly clean, transparent sound with vanishingly low distortion. Every circuit—from the DAC stage to the headphone amplifier—is meticulously tuned for lifelike musicality and precision.

Designed for Sonic and Visual Harmony

Machined from premium aluminum and finished with refined minimalism, the RS451 complements any listening space with understated elegance. The 8.8-inch IPS touch display offers an intuitive window into your music, combining responsive control with vivid clarity. Inside and out, every detail reflects a pursuit of perfect balance—form, function, and fidelity in harmony.

Reference DAC Performance

At its core, the ESS ES9027PRO DAC ensures wide dynamic range, exceptional signal-to-noise ratio, and remarkable linearity across the frequency spectrum. With native DSD512 and PCM 32-bit/768 kHz playback, the RS451 captures every nuance of the original recording—faithful, precise, and true to the artist’s intent.

Pure Power

The RS451 employs a toroidal linear power supply and independent power delivery per channel, producing a stable, noise-free foundation for your music. The result is greater stereo separation, effortless dynamics, and an open, natural soundstage that invites deeper listening.

Headphone Excellence, Reimagined

Equipped with a powerful integrated headphone amplifier, the RS451 accommodates both balanced (XLR, 4.4 mm) and unbalanced (6.35 mm) connections. It offers the drive and control required for demanding headphones, revealing layers of texture and micro-detail that lesser sources leave behind.

Seamless Streaming, Intuitive Control

The RS451 is Roon Ready and supports AirPlay, DLNA, Spotify Connect, TIDAL, Qobuz, Apple Music, RoseTube, and Internet Radio. Whether operated via the responsive touchscreen or the ROSE Connect app for Android, iOS, and PC, every function feels fluid and effortless—technology refined into pure enjoyment.
