The Silent Angel H1 is an all-in-one music streamer and DAC built around a dual ES9039Q2M DAC chipset and a 16-core XMOS XU316 audio processor, handling everything from DSD256 to PCM audio up to 768kHz/32-bit without needing a separate streamer and converter. A quad-core ARM processor running Linux powers the onboard 5.5-inch display and dedicated iOS/Android app, with 4GB of RAM, 32GB of built-in storage, and an M.2 NVMe slot giving it room to hold a local music library directly rather than relying solely on network sources. It streams via AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, DLNA, and internet radio, alongside built-in QQ Music support — notably, Roon isn't mentioned as a supported protocol, so Roon users should verify compatibility before buying. Balanced XLR outputs deliver 4.5 Vrms with a 129dB signal-to-noise ratio, while unbalanced RCA outputs measure 126dB SNR, giving it genuine high-end output specs for driving a preamp or active speakers directly. Dual-band Wi-Fi 6, Gigabit Ethernet, and both USB-A and USB-C connections round out its connectivity, all housed in a full aluminum chassis with soft, volume-synced ambient lighting designed to blend into a home's existing décor.
