AirLens word is referring to something PS Audio already used on their SACD transport, lots about this you can find on PS Audio forum along with dedicated thread about the upcoming unit.
@pmotz according to the video, masking is still required to visit. That put me off. I was already wavering when I saw the fr 30 and that was the last straw |
This sort of marketing hyperbole is what drives me nuts about this company. At around the 4:30 mark it sounds like he is claiming they invented the sony/Phillips I2S data format. Even if you can say well he meant the interface to access, all that amounts to is a pin layout for HDMI. I also don't get the notion USB which uses galvanic isolation in any decent implementation is terrible but digital coax and HDMI with galvanic isolation on this is great. So I'm not at all excited about nothing new to see here. |
Any updates on this? I find the inability to play Apple Music, Spotify (for playlists/tracks unavailable on Qobuz), on the new DAC Mk. II frustrating. I would have preferred a single box solution with two price points. Love the idea of a preferred output stage -- can you feed a ROON NUC into this streamer (as an alternative to the SGP System Optique setup). Seems silly to have multiple mini-computers in a system. |
