And @djones51 I did read somewhere (maybe on ps audio's forums?), that you just need to increase the voltage of the i2s signal to push it further than the recommended 4" in the standard. No idea if this is true or not.
Does Anyone Currently Make an Ethernet to I2S Renderer?
Currently looking at devices to have audio bypass laptop controlling with JRiver. I have been using an Oppo 105 out to SPDIF. Certainly sounds better than laptop USB, but has its limitations. I know of many good devices from Ethernet to USB, where I have an Amenero input (with its own power). But since my DAC has two I2S inputs (rj47 and hdmi hardware), I guess that would be a better option, if available. I have a large music collection on a NAS and am very happy using JRiver and controlling by phone.

Yes it can be done and is being done. The advantage was it could do higher PCM and DSD rates but USB has caught up except for the highest DSD but that’s getting closer. I think that's why very few are jumping on the I2S bandwagon. https://www.thesycon.de/eng/u-hear.shtml |
