Electrocompaniet announced the launch of the new ECI 6DX Balanced Integrated Amplifier with next-generation streamer, capable of playback directly from music services such as Tidal, Spotify and Qobuz, streaming music through AirPlay or DLNA, and accessing any music collection stored on a home network.
According to the press release, the ECI 6DX combines a best-in-class feature set with cutting edge audio technology and true Electrocompaniet sound. The single-box unit is able to play whichever, wherever and whatever audio the user might have, and make it sound with the quality it should. The built in streamer is extremely powerful, flexible and easy to use. It can play directly from music services such as Tidal, Spotify and Qobuz, can be fed music through AirPlay or DLNA, and it can even index and play from a music collection stored on the home network.
Electro points out that the new amp shares the same architecture as the ECM 2 and the new EC Living product line. This means that you can use the same apps and interface, which makes the unit universal in the Electrocompaniet ecosystem. All the units are equally flexible and will work equally well together. ECI 6DX can be operated by the intuitive iOS or Android EC Remote application, the universal web interface, or with the straightforward IR remote control.
ECI 6DX comes with the same technical specifications as the reliable ECI 6D. It keeps the on-board high-end DAC and boasts a powerful 2x125 Watt integrated amplifier. This product brings together modern wireless and digital technology with the power and sonic excellence of our renowned Classic line products and will bring Electrocompaniet into the future of streaming, the company says.
An upgrade program for the ECI 6D and ECI 6DS will also be made available, allowing all ECI 6 owners to benefit from the new streaming technologies. More details on this program will be available on their website.
