The IS-1000 MKII Line is the kind of all-in-one that actually earns the title — Florence-built, carved from solid aluminum, and pushing 125 watts of Class A/B MOSFET power while Roon, Qobuz, Spotify, or Tidal stream effortlessly over Wi-Fi or Ethernet. The LINE configuration deliberately omits the onboard phono stage, keeping the signal path focused on digital and line-level sources, with the BurrBrown PCM1796 DAC doing honest, unhurried conversion work. DSD64, hi-res PCM up to 24-bit/192kHz, a full complement of optical and coaxial inputs — it's all here in one Italian chassis. Connect your speakers, plug in a network cable, and you're done.
