Volumio Rivo Plus

High-end digital transport – dedicated ASIC, reclocking, and I2S/DSD over HDMI

The Rivo Plus is the next-step evolution of the award-winning Rivo. It blends serious engineering with true audiophile intent—taking digital music playback to a new level.

At the heart of this new generation is a dedicated ASIC that generates S/PDIF and AES/EBU signals with maximum precision. It’s supported by upgraded MEMS clocks inside the USB hub IC, enabling accurate reclocking and exceptionally stable signal routing. The result: lower jitter, fewer disturbances, and a clearly audible gain in clarity, depth, and naturalness.

Connectivity is equally performance-focused. Alongside the classic digital outputs, Rivo Plus adds I2S/DSD over HDMI—the ideal interface for compatible high-end DACs that favor the shortest, most direct signal path. An integrated 12V trigger can power external components on/off, making Rivo Plus a perfect fit in modern systems.

Inside, low-noise voltage regulators feed every circuit with stable, clean power. This careful power management forms the foundation for a neutral, detailed, organic presentation that satisfies both technically and musically.

Volumio Premium built in

Rivo Plus isn’t just hardware—it’s a complete music system. It comes with the latest Volumio Premium, including Volumio AI and the intelligent Supersearch feature that makes finding and discovering music faster and easier.

The multiroom function connects seamlessly with other Volumio players around the house. Regular software updates keep Rivo Plus current—and let it improve over time.

Digital minimalism, redefined

Whether via USB, S/PDIF, AES/EBU, or I2S/DSD, Rivo Plus delivers a precise, interference-free digital signal to any DAC. From PCB layout to power delivery, every detail is designed to preserve musical flow without coloration.

The result is playback with tangible calm, deep spatial layering, and impressive dynamics—built for music lovers who want to hear every nuance, without technical artifacts getting in the way.
