cinnamon Galle network transport

The Cinnamon Galle DAC deserves a good companion, a soul that shares its desire for simplicity and ultimate musical enjoyment.

The Galle Network Transport. We further refined the original Galle Digital to Digital Network Transport, focusing on the quality of the user experience and ultimate noise rejection on optimized outputs. We keep the vision of having an uncompromised and versatile transport, supporting local, networked and streamed media. Perfect power delivery, low consumption but high-performance silicone and customized operating system. An absolutely silent machine, dedicated to one thing only: get your music data from storage to your DAC in the best way possible.

The transport provides native input connectivity from your USB connected storage, NAS, exposes UPnP connectivity, enabling all streaming services like Tidal and Qobuz, as well as being a Roon Endpoint. Internet radio and library management operations are available from the iOS and Android app. Advanced DSP, upsampling or equalization are natively available, bypassed for a bit-perfect operation by default.

The Galle line renounces the banality of contemporary component design, instead choosing to carve a singular language. With Industrial design by the architects and designers of IM Collective, the minimalist and interporal chassis is hand finished solid sand cast aluminum and bronze. The surface is hand waxed with a polycrystalline compound that prevents staining and corrosion. The massive metal body effectively shields the inside from the noisy outside environment. In conjunction with the Galle DAC, the result is a gaze magnet: a set of components that simply exist to provide you with music. No buttons, no screens, no color coded blinking LEDs. Just unbounded living texture, provided by Hephaestus himself.
