Innuos PULSE Mini?

@j_andrews I haven't but might be interesting.  For that matter, I haven't tried the PulseMini DAC to compare to the Pontus II.  I'll have to try it both ways one of these days.

Demoing one right now in my home now as a digital front end alternate to my Turntable. My analog rig in total is $10k + in cost, (rega p10 and Umami Red) and while it does some different things digital just can not replicate, this little Pulse is literally 85% of it generally speaking. It has a very organic analogue sound that quite honestly I am shocked by. To me it's a steal at twice the price nevermind $1200. 

Likely the software has something to do with how good it sounds. Software updates, easy, initial hook up was simple as well. To me this is a giant killer. 

iiWi just posted his Innuos Pulse Mini review on YouTube.

The summary is he liked the device and thought if you were going to use the internal DAC, he preferred it over the new (hard to get) EverSolo streamer. If you were going to use it purely as a streamer and no DAC, he slightly preferred the EverSolo over the Innuos.

While he preferred the BluOS for the Node over Innuos SW, the improved sound quality of the Innuous would have him picking it over the Node.

Just summarizing his review, I have no experience with the product, just interested as well

Just ordered one blind.  So far I have tried a number of streamers and the best sounding one has been the w4s upgraded Sonos connect.  Beats hands down node, w4s upgraded Sonos port.  Transients and dynamics are superior.  Hoping that the pulse mini is at least as good as my w4s connect.  The only reason I am upgrading is because I want a more responsive os.  Has anyone done a comparison!  

Oh, using this via coax to a Yggdrasil
