General: The Hifi Rose RSA720 Optical USB Hub is an ideal way to clean up the USB signal from your streamer or from a USB storage location before it enters your DAC. The Hifi Rose RSA720 is also ideal for connecting to a USB port for USB storage locations that may be on your device. The Hifi Rose RSA720 is designed to eliminate vibrations and electronic noise from a USB source and thus provide a clean signal to the DAC. Additionally, with the Hifi Rose RSA720 you have access to multiple USB ports if you want to connect multiple USB sources. In combination with the Hifi Rose RS130, you can also use the optical fiber USB 3.0 connection for a completely cleaned signal that can also travel extremely long distances without loss. The housing of the Hifi Rose RSA720 is made of solid aluminum

Use: We have used the Hifi Rose RSA720 to play music from a USB stick and USB SSD or HDD where music was stored. For example, on an Antipodes server or an Axxess Forté or Aavik streamer which has a USB port where USB storage can be connected. This way there is no USB storage directly connected to the server/streamer/amplifier, so the USB storage does not need to be powered by it and is not affected by vibrations from the drive. Additionally, the signal is also cleaned by the RSA720, which noticeably improves listening to music from a USB storage location.

As a second way, you can also use the Hifi Rose RSA between your streamer or PC and your DAC. A digital source such as a streamer or a PC generates noise while processing the bits, which then ends up in the audio signal that eventually reaches your DAC. A USB cable carries an audio signal, not literally ones and zeros moving in a row from one connector to another. Digital signals are also susceptible to noise. Run a USB cable from your streamer or PC into the Hifi Rose RSA720, and use a second USB cable from the RSA720 to the USB input of your DAC.

Listening: With the Hifi Rose RSA720 in the USB signal path, you clearly hear more peace and quiet in the sound. The soundstage sounds more organized and there is more air in the music and more space between the foreground and background. This makes the Hifi Rose RSA720 an optimal upgrade between your streamer and DAC, but also an extremely useful device to have if you have multiple USB storage locations from which you want to play music and there is only 1 USB storage input on your DAC/Amplifier. The sound of the Hifi Rose RSA720 can be further improved by purchasing a good external power supply such as an iFi Audio or SBooster.
