TV audio into DAC via eARC or better
Interesting.  I forgot I have a Mutec reclocker I use to use for my DAC but I removed it for USB when I upgraded by Schiit Yggy a few years back.  I should try it on my TV audio! https://www.mutec-net.com/product_mc-3-plus-usb.php

@lalitk No need for Atmos.  Toslink is pretty old technology I assume ARC and eARC can send even 2 channel stereo pcm at a higher bit rate to the dac.   eARC has a bandwidth of 37Mbps where toslink is only 384kbps https://www.avaccess.com/blogs/...

Don't see any dealers close to Denver to demo MSB.... https://msbtechnology.com/dealers/

I think The Audio Salon, new distributor, is going through all existing dealers and deciding who is keeping their dealership with TechDAS.   http://www.soundingshifi.com/brands/

It’s all relative!

Oh no it was like UHQR delays.  I heard free shipping went from $50 min to $100.  Not sure what else changed!

Is the HiFi Rose RS150B more about a touch screen and software than sound quality?  How does it stack up against other $5k-$6k streamers? Aurender N200?

Can't tell if the MSB Discrete does DSD without the DOP? not sure of it's master clock speed.   Also is it odd that MSB doesn't have an i2s HDMI input card?

Understand the arm is next level but would the Stabi R be holding it back too much....?

@docroasty  Actually I'm not sure if i2s is a deal breaker or not.  I'm looking at the MSB Discrete which I don't think has the option for i2s but then again it has modular input cards.  If I could afford it I would get the Emm Labs DA2 V2.  But...

yeah not using SONOS just know it's very popular.  Probably going into a new DAC in the $10k-$15k range.  Maybe MSB Discrete
