Primare SM35 Prisma Network Player Module at Vinyl Sound Buffalo, NY USA

The SM35 is an internal Prisma network player module from Primare (Malmö, Sweden), available at Vinyl Sound in Buffalo, NY, USA. Compatible with the Primare CD35, I25, I35, and PRE35, the SM35 is a single internal upgrade that transforms any compatible Primare component into a complete multi-room network streamer with AirPlay 2, Chromecast built-in, Bluetooth, Spotify Connect, and Roon Ready capability — no external box, no additional cables. A DM35 or DM36 DAC board is required for Prisma operation; please confirm compatibility before ordering.

Full Prisma Platform — Internally Integrated

The SM35 delivers the identical Prisma streaming platform found across Primare's fully configured integrated amplifiers and preamplifiers. Once installed, the host component gains multi-room and multi-zone connectivity for both stored and streamed media — wired via dual Ethernet ports or wirelessly via built-in Wi-Fi — managed from any iOS or Android mobile device through the dedicated Prisma app. Chromecast built-in provides a direct portal to hundreds of streaming services and apps including voice control, while AirPlay 2 and Roon Ready bring Apple ecosystem and Roon music management integration. Spotify Connect and Bluetooth complete the streaming protocol suite. The modular installation approach keeps the system clean — a single chassis, a single power cable, and no additional shelf space required.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Primare SM35 Prisma module?

The Primare SM35 is an internal network player module from Primare (Sweden) that adds the full Prisma streaming platform — AirPlay 2, Chromecast built-in, Bluetooth, Spotify Connect, and Roon Ready — to compatible Primare components including the CD35, I25, I35, and PRE35. It installs inside the host component, requiring no external hardware. A DM35 or DM36 DAC board must also be present in the host unit for the SM35 to operate. It is available at Vinyl Sound in Buffalo, NY, USA.

Which Primare components are compatible with the SM35?

The SM35 is compatible with the Primare CD35 CD player, I25 integrated amplifier, I35 integrated amplifier, and PRE35 preamplifier. Each of these components features an internal module slot designed to accept both the SM35 streaming module and the optional DM35 or DM36 DAC module. The SM35 requires a DM35 or DM36 to be installed in the same unit — please confirm the DAC module is present or is being added at the same time before ordering.

Do I need a DAC module to use the SM35?

Yes. A DM35 or DM36 DAC board must be installed in the host component for the SM35 Prisma module to function. If the host unit does not already have a DAC module installed, both the SM35 and the appropriate DAC module should be ordered together. Vinyl Sound can advise on the correct module configuration for any compatible Primare component.

What is the difference between the SM35 module and the Primare NP5 Prisma MK2 streamer?

The SM35 is an internal module installed inside a compatible Primare component, adding Prisma streaming without any external hardware. The NP5 Prisma MK2 is a standalone external streaming transport that connects to any component — Primare or otherwise — via a digital output, making it compatible with a far wider range of equipment. For owners of compatible SM35 host components, the internal module is the cleaner solution. For legacy Primare components or non-Primare systems, the NP5 Prisma MK2 is the appropriate upgrade path.

Can the SM35 be moved between Primare components?

Yes. The SM35 Prisma module is designed to be transferable between compatible Primare components within the SM35-compatible platform family. This is a core principle of Primare's modular design philosophy — protecting the investment in the module itself as the system evolves.
