With its R2R architecture and the capability to stream from almost any source, this device bridges the divide between warm analog sonics and quick digital convenience. Whether it's by using the DAC \u0026amp; headphone amp mode, streaming from your favorite apps, or directly playing from an NAS drive, the EF499 ensures your music is always in its best form—whatever form it takes. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eStreaming made simple\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe EF499 embraces streaming services with open arms.
