Awards & Reviews

EISA Award Best Hi-Fi 2022-2023

"Primare's NP5 Prisma MK2 makes it easy to introduce streaming capabilities to any outboard DAC or other component with a digital input/DAC. This well-priced device is based on the multiroom audio platform the Swedish brand utilizes in even its most expensive hi-fi components, meaning there's slick control via the dedicated Prisma app, playback from local USB and networked storage, and streaming over Spotify Connect, AirPlay 2, Bluetooth, Chromecast and Roon. Also a fine upgrade for legacy Primare gear thanks to its RS232 control port, the NP5 Prisma MK2 supports DoP with Roon and MQA passthrough, various output sample rates, and hi-res files up to 192kHz/24-bit and DSD128. This streamer may be compact, but sure is mighty when it comes to possibilities."
