I'm sorry to learn your google is broken. From their web page, here's some highlights-

**Accepts streaming (USB and UPnP/DLNA Ethernet) and traditional (HDMI, Toslink, S/PDIF and AES3) digital input connections

**Plays online audio and video services such as Tidal, Spotify, Netflix or YouTube via HDMI inputs, including video throughput

**Artist, track name, album name, cover art and file type information is displayed when available during streaming

**Decodes MP3, FLAC, xFLAC, WAV, xWAV, ALAC (Apple Lossless), AIFF, OGG Vorbis, and DSF (DSD 1x and DSD 2x) music files

**Automatic software updates when linked to an active Internet connection

**IR remote and networked IP control for use in stand-alone systems or fully integrated homes

**Supports all common digital data rates and resolutions

**Internal volume control for direct connection to amplification

**Differentially balanced version of Boulder's Precise Interval Clock to eliminate jitter and maintain ultra-precise data timing at the DACs

Best Sir,

Bob
