Description

Roksan Caspian 4G Streaming Pre-Amplifier

The Roksan Caspian 4G Streaming Pre-Amplifier brings together high-end analogue pre-amplification with BluOS streaming, Rapture DAC technology, digital and analogue inputs including a built-in MM/MC phono stage and an HDMI ARC input for connection to compatible TVs.

Designed as the natural partner for the Caspian 4G Power Amplifier, it handles streaming, vinyl, digital and analogue sources with ease, while balanced XLR outputs make it suitable for a wide range of premium power amplifiers.

BluOS High-Resolution Streaming

Built-in BluOS provides access to a wide range of streaming services, internet radio and locally stored music, with playback at up to 24-bit/192kHz. Multi-room support allows music to be shared across compatible BluOS products throughout the home, while Roon Ready certification makes integration with a Roon-based system straightforward.

Rapture DAC Technology

For digital playback, Roksan’s Rapture DAC architecture is designed to deliver low noise, excellent resolution and a natural tonal balance. Streaming services, digital sources and TV audio all benefit from the same carefully engineered conversion stage, helping maintain a consistent level of performance across the system.

HDMI eARC Connectivity for TV Sound

HDMI eARC allows a compatible television to become part of the main hi-fi system, routing TV sound through the stereo speakers for a far more engaging experience. Volume control can remain with the TV remote, making the setup feel simple and intuitive while avoiding the need for a separate AV receiver.

MM and MC Phono Stage

Vinyl listeners are well catered for with built-in support for both Moving Magnet and Moving Coil cartridges. A turntable can therefore connect directly to the pre-amplifier without the need for an external phono stage, making the Caspian equally comfortable with analogue and digital sources.

Flexible Analogue and Digital Connectivity

A broad range of inputs and outputs makes system building straightforward, whether the focus is streaming, vinyl, CD or television sound. Both RCA and balanced XLR pre-amplifier outputs are provided, along with a dedicated subwoofer output for adding low-frequency reinforcement to a stereo system.

Bluetooth with aptX also provides a convenient option for casual wireless playback.

MaestroUnite Setup and Control

System configuration is handled through Roksan’s MaestroUnite app, giving access to input setup, gain adjustment, balance and power management from a compatible phone or tablet.

Over-the-air firmware updates help keep the system current without the need for manual servicing or software installation.

Ultra-High-Resolution Volume Control

Roksan’s Ultra-High-Resolution Volume Control provides fine adjustment across the listening range, helping preserve channel balance and low-level detail even at quieter volumes. That extra precision becomes particularly useful in high-resolution systems where small changes in level can make a noticeable difference.

Premium Caspian 4G Design

Machined and extruded aluminium casework gives the Caspian 4G a substantial, refined appearance, complemented by a clean front panel and high-contrast OLED display. Available in Black or Silver, it pairs visually with the Caspian 4G Power Amplifier for a cohesive separates system.

  • Built-in BluOS
