FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a network drive?
A network player is a device for streaming dematerialized music (from a streaming service, radios, local files, etc.) to an amplifier without connected functions. Most amplifiers made before the 2000s do not have these features.
What is the difference with a Bluetooth receiver?
Unlike a Bluetooth receiver, Octavio Stream uses Wi-Fi sound technology.
Wi-Fi guarantees a much greater data transfer and therefore a better quality audio signal without any sound compression, unlike Bluetooth which in most cases compresses your audio signal.
How to choose between an RCA and Toslink cable?
If you want to connect Octavio Stream to your amplifier, in most cases choose the RCA cable.
If you want to connect Octavio Stream to your external DAC, select the optical cable instead.
What is a DAC?
Once connected to your streaming service, the recovered audio format is a digital file.
In order to be transmitted and read by the loudspeakers of your loudspeaker, this digital file must be converted into an analog format.
This conversion is essential. A poor quality conversion risks distorting the audio signal and thus degrading your listening experience.
The electronic component in charge of this conversion is called DAC, for Digital to Analog Converter.
Depending on the audio cable used with Octavio, our product will perform this conversion or not.
• If using an analog cable, Octavio's internal DAC will be used
• If you are using an optical cable, Octavio's internal DAC will not be used. It is then the DAC of the product to which it is connected which will take over and carry out the conversion (this is called an external DAC)
Should an external DAC be used with Octavio?
Octavio has a neutral, precise and faithful DAC. The appreciation of a DAC is personal and varies according to individual tastes. Some DACs will tend to run hotter than others. So the best answer we can give you is to listen and compare. If you already have an external DAC, select the optical cable when purchasing. You can always add an RCA cable to your basket to be able to compare the sound of Octavio against your external DAC.
Should I leave Octavio Stream plugged in?
Octavio Stream has an automatic sleep mode after a few minutes of inactivity to drastically reduce its power consumption.
In case of prolonged inactivity, it is always possible to unplug your device.
