Sonore OpticalRendu Music Streamer I've been using the opticalRendu into a legacy Naim streamer(NDS) for the last 4 years, primarily to play Roon into the NDS via UPnP, I now have a Roon ready streamer so I don't require the rendu any more. It's powered by a Teddy Pardo 7V PS which is for sale also. Comes with Version 2.9 software update SD card., It's a great option for the first generation of Naim streamers that don't have roon ready. It would sound very good connected straight into a UDB DAC. Also for sale is a Teddy Pardo 7V Power Supply. https://teddypardo.com/product/miniteddy7v

Sonore emerged in the early 2010s as a boutique innovator in digital audio playback, driven by a singular focus on resolving the challenges of hi-resolution music reproduction. Founded by Ned Mills, a performer-turned-inventor with deep roots in music technology, the brand originated in the United States, prioritizing simplicity and sonic purity over the bloated complexity of mainstream computer audio setups. From its inception, Sonore challenged industry norms by engineering compact, dedicated devices that deliver bit-perfect performance without compromise.
The brand specializes in high-end network audio renderers and streamers, such as the acclaimed microRendu, ultraRendu, and Signature Rendu SE series. These USB and Ethernet endpoints convert digital streams into pristine analog signals, supporting formats up to DSD and beyond. Sonore avoids amplifiers, speakers, or headphones, instead excelling in niche digital transport solutions optimized for external DACs, with meticulous attention to power supplies, clocking, and noise isolation.
Sonore holds a revered position in the audiophile market as a niche high-end specialist, beloved by discerning buyers seeking ultimate transparency in server-based systems. Its products command premium prices yet deliver transformative clarity, earning cult status among Roon users and digital purists. While not a mass-market player, Sonore's unwavering engineering ethos cements its reputation for elevating hi-fi playback to reference levels.
