Best digital “marriage” to date for me thus far. Coherent, dynamic, expressive, engaging, and fun listening sessions. Was worth all the hassle tweaking the networking bits to gain more stability and performance. 

I'm loving my Eversolo DMP-A6 => Benchmark DAC3.

“Do you have a perfect digital marriage?”

Yes! But I don’t mind courting new components that peaks my interest. 

Aurender  N-200 tied to a Lampizator Atlantic TRP DAC,  very happy with it.

I have a blissful marriage between my Aurender W20SE into the Berkeley alpha USB into the Berkeley Alpha Ref 3 DAC. 

As other posters have commented, everything in the chain matters, high end switches with dedicated power supplies, proper Ethernet cables, and digital cables all come into play.
