Clock vs Streamer advice
@ghasley very nice. Yes, I can't see how someone would be disappointed with an MU1. Are you now simply going ethernet cable direct from router? or switch? Audiophile ethernet cable?

@zpatenaude37 I don't know why this is still for sale: absolute bargain k50  
Puritan PSM156
@questforhifi you have tried a Puritan PSM156 in your system? And you found it restricted dynamics?   
Clock vs Streamer advice
@phishhhhh4 thanks for the response. It was actually the nucleus vs. pulsar sound comparison I was inquiring about, not so much about the whole Roon customer service experience. But now that vented a bit I hope you feel better 😉 I assume you pref... 
Aurender Music Server and CD Transport comparison
I was thinking about throwing him a pear, but decided against it.  What is a better outcome- a dozen suggestions but not completely direct answers, or no answer?

@phishhhhh4 I don't have to pay Roon any $$$, anymore. What did you use before the Pulsar? can you share some comparisons?

@zpatenaude37  @audphile1 can buy this and then he will sell you his N200. Win win. 😁  
What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another?
Using Roon that would be really easy to do, as the user interface in the K50 allows one to switch server and player duties- all he would have to do is press a button on the web interface to swap the Roon core from K50 to the NUC back and forth wit...

@jji666 You have done your homework, I commend you on your perseverance. It's obvious you know more about computers than I do, and I think you are a better arguer. But I don't think people buy Porsche's just because they look nice and they want to... 
New streamer
I would think it is hard to determine when it is flat, if it ever is, as testing us to see where that might occur damages the test subjects ears, as it is north of 120db. Point is the louder the music the flatter the curve, and the more perception...

I think you just nullified your own argument? I’m not saying that to get into a fight - but you say it is the same piece of candy either way. Yes it is the same, identical, exactly the same, not different, not dirtier, piece of candy. Okay well...
