Elipson’s new compact streaming amp looks like a brick, but kicks like a horse

  • Elipson Connect 2130 Xi is a powerful streaming amp and DAC
  • 2 x 130W, capable of up to 500W peak in mono mode
  • AirPlay 2, Chromecast, UPnP and DLNA with Sabre ES9023 DAC

Some audio components are beautiful, with gorgeous details that make it hard to tear your eyes away. The Elipson Connect 2130 Xi amplifier, it’s safe to say, is not one of them – its efforts have been put elsewhere.

The French audio brand – Elipson is France’s oldest hi-fi manufacturer, and was founded in 1938 – has taken a very simple approach to the industrial design here by not really doing any of it, preferring to concentrate instead on what the amp can do rather than what it looks like. And it can do a lot.
