It sounds better to my ears through its internal streamer vs spdif/aes/usb. With that said, its likely all the cable/device variables have been removed from the chain. Enjoy, its a great dac, especially since you were luck to shag one preowned.

Agreed above. I run roon, and it is perfect in every way. Use both Tidal and Qobuz, but TBH, while MQA is kinda neat and can have a small measurable difference, still prefer the higher bitrate flat files from qobuz, plus the Tidal API times out from time to time.
What streaming platforms are you guys running? |
Thanks to each of you for the feedback on the internal streamer and thanks to my buds @david_ten and @wig for the warm welcome back. Truly great to hear that the internal streamer is so good and really stoked that it is on par with the NS1. Can’t wait to get the new system set up and hear this bad boy. Hoping to make that happen in two weeks, the critical path being delivery of the Nenuphars which have to ship by truck freight. |
