Yamaha NP-S303 Network Player / Streamer

Further Information: The Yamaha NP-S303 was Sound + Image's Network Player of the Year under $1,000 in 2018.

It was one of Yamaha's best-kept secrets embodying full-width casework in the same finishes as their current amps and cd players, ease of use, app stability (MusicCast) multi-room capabilities, AND in-built DAC (Burr-Brown DSD1791 chip from Texas Instruments).

This model is no longer available and becoming rarer than rocking-horse droppings.

Extremely well looked after and not a mark or blemish on the unit or remote. Firmware up to date. All original carton, packaging, manuals and accessories included.

Plug a flash drive into the front USB port and the Yamaha MusicCast app (iOS and Android compatible) will render any (huge) library readily to access artist alphabetically, album and tracks individually with full on-screen (phone) playback detail.

Artwork also displays on your phone where available.

Seamless streaming selection from the app across a number of platforms including Tidal, Qobuz and Spotify.
