ELEMENT i2: Streamer, DAC, Preamp and Headphone AmpELEMENT i2 folds four functions into one chassis - network streamer, digital-to-analog converter, preamplifier and headphone amplifier - built around an NXP i.MX 6Quad Cortex-A9 processor.
That degree of integration lets ELEMENT i2 sit directly between a network connection and a power amplifier or headphones, without a separate preamp or DAC elsewhere in the chain.

ELEMENT i2: ES9038Q2M and Femtosecond ClockingThe D/A stage is built around ESS’s ES9038Q2M chip, timed by a Crystek CCHD-950 ultra-low phase noise femtosecond clock chosen specifically to minimise jitter in the conversion path.
Measured performance reflects that clocking choice: THD+N below 0.00035% from the RCA outputs and below 0.00025% from the balanced XLR outputs.

ELEMENT i2: Full MQA DecodingELEMENT i2 is a full MQA decoder, unfolding MQA-encoded streams from TIDAL and other supporting services in hardware rather than relying on a software-only rendering step.
Digital inputs cover coaxial and optical S/PDIF up to 24-bit/192kHz and DSD64 in DoP, alongside its network-based streaming path.

ELEMENT i2: Network and Streaming SupportA Gigabit Ethernet port and integrated dual-band 2.4GHz/5GHz Wi-Fi antenna cover both wired and wireless network connections, with Roon Ready, DLNA/UPnP and AirPlay 2 built into the onboard platform.
TIDAL, Qobuz, Spotify and internet radio are accessible directly from the unit’s 3.46-inch touch screen, without needing a separate control app for basic playback.
