  • Our take on the Volumio Primo Plus

    The Primo Plus is Volumio's streaming DAC, a compact box that pulls music from streaming services, a local library or internet radio and converts it with a dual-mono pair of ESS ES9039Q2M chips. It adds balanced XLR outputs, a built-in volume control and a dual linear power supply over the original Primo, so it can drive a power amp directly. Its appeal is the all-in-one approach: one unit replaces a streamer and a separate DAC, with Roon Ready, AirPlay, DLNA, TIDAL, Qobuz and Spotify built in. Against rivals like the Bluesound Node or Cambridge CXN it trades brand-name ecosystem polish for higher-resolution conversion and a true balanced output stage.

    Best forHi-fi listeners who want one box for streaming and conversionOwners of balanced amplifiers or active speakersPeople who prefer a dedicated app over a general-purpose streamerRoon and TIDAL/Qobuz users with large hi-res libraries
    Pros
    • Dual-mono ESS ES9039Q2M conversion up to PCM 768 kHz and DSD512
    • Balanced XLR outputs with adjustable gain
    • Built-in preamp with volume control, so no separate preamp is needed
    • Dual linear power supply and precision clock aimed at low noise and jitter
    • Wide input set: USB-C, USB-A, optical, coaxial and Bluetooth
    • Roon Ready plus AirPlay, DLNA, TIDAL, Qobuz and Spotify
    Cons
    • Volumio's app and software quirks are the usual weak point of the platform
    • No HDMI ARC or phono stage, so it is not a full system hub
    • S/PDIF inputs stop at PCM 192 kHz/24 bit
    • Small brand with limited dealer and support network compared with Bluesound or Cambridge

    Streaming DAC for the modern hi-fi setup

    Volumio Primo Plus is an advanced streaming DAC that combines high-resolution network streaming with audiophile DAC technology in one compact unit. It has been developed from the ground up as a further evolution of the popular Primo and delivers even higher resolution, better dynamics, and a more natural soundstage.

    With Volumio's own software platform, Primo Plus brings together all your digital music sources in one user-friendly solution – from streaming services to local music and internet radio.

    Dual-mono ESS DAC architecture

    At the heart of Primo Plus are two ESS ES9039Q2M DAC chips in a true dual-mono design. Each channel is processed separately, reducing crosstalk and providing a more precise and stable stereo image.

    The result is high-resolution sound reproduction with greater dynamics and a wider soundstage, where instruments and vocals are placed clearly in the room.

    Low noise and precise clocking

    Primo Plus is equipped with a dual linear power supply and advanced power filtering, which reduces noise and ensures stable operation for both the analog and digital sections.

    At the same time, a high-precision clock ensures minimal jitter, resulting in cleaner, more stable playback with better timing and detail.

    Flexible connectivity

    With a wide range of connections, Primo Plus fits into almost any hi-fi setup. It offers USB-C, USB-A, optical and coaxial input, as well as Bluetooth and network streaming.

    Questions and answers

    Is the Primo Plus worth it over the original Primo?
    The Plus adds a dual-mono ESS ES9039Q2M DAC, balanced XLR outputs, a built-in preamp and a dual linear power supply. If you use single-ended outputs and a separate preamp, the original covers most of the ground; the Plus earns its place with balanced gear and direct-to-power-amp setups.
    Can I connect it straight to a power amplifier?
    Yes. The built-in volume control lets it act as a preamp, with XLR output adjustable from 1.0 to 6.3 Vrms and RCA from 0.5 to 3.15 Vrms. That is enough drive for most power amps and active speakers.
    Does it work with Roon and AirPlay?
    It is Roon Ready and supports AirPlay, DLNA, TIDAL, Qobuz, Spotify and internet radio through the Volumio platform. Local files on a USB drive or network share are indexed in the same app.
    What resolution can each input handle?
    Network and USB-C playback reach PCM 768 kHz/32 bit and DSD512, and the USB output goes higher still. Optical and coaxial S/PDIF inputs are limited to PCM 192 kHz/24 bit.
    What is in the box?
    The unit, its power supply and the essentials for setup. There is no built-in storage beyond the 16 GB eMMC for the system, so plan on a USB drive or network library for local music.
    How does it compare with a Bluesound Node?
    The Primo Plus offers balanced outputs, a dual-mono DAC and higher resolution support; the Node counters with a more mature app, HDMI eARC and a wider retail presence. Choose the Volumio for balanced hi-res conversion, the Node for living-room integration.
