    The Uptone Audio EtherRegen audiophile switch

    Dutch reviewer Hans Beekhuyzen has published his EtherREGEN review today. Spoiler alert: he likes it and thinks it clearly bests the SoTM (standard version), AQvox SE and Silent Angel Bonn switches he also reviewed. Direct link:

    SOtM sNH-10G Network Switches x2 : The NEW KING of USB/Network Gadget Setup

    Thanks for sharing @CKKeung ! One question; were the two ER’s running the latest firmware version released November 26th or the version they came with?

    A new star in 2019 : Innuos Statement Server

    Must be, since that’s where the SATA cables go. ;)

    Best power cord goes where when using an AC regenerator?

    Hi all, If everything goes according to plan I should receive a Shunyata Alpha HC power cord today. Currently I already have an Alpha Digital connected to my Devialet D250 Expert Pro CI (integrated stereo amp, dac). I was thinking about using the HC either between the Devialet and my PS Audio...

    Please sign this petition as a Devialet owner or to help many

    Hi all, I hope this isn't against any forum rules, if it is of course the thread should be deleted. A fellow Devialet owner started a petition to try to get Devialet moving in fixing the issues in their ethernet/WiFi streaming module and software. If you're a Devialet owner or would like...

    I'm Not Gonna Tell How Great My MicroRendu plus Sonore Signature Power Supply Sounds!

    IFi is responding to these ASR measurements of the iFi(/microrendu). They might prove it's (a) ground loop(s) that messed up these measurements. "Much Ado About Nothing". It will be a four parts article, first two have been published as of now...

    Sonore's microrendu is out - the first audiophile microcomputer?

    A receiver asking for retransmission of USB data!? There's no such thing in isochronous USB, if anyone knows that it's John Swenson. Looks like things are being made up/wrongly interpreted/translated. This is an awful thread on a really interesting device and I don't blame the proponents of...

    Has anyone heard the Devialet D-Premier Integrated Amp/DAC

    Hi all, I hope it is not against any forum rules but I'd like to share that a new 'unofficial' Devialet forum has been created and opened (not by me, but I did sign up). You can find the forum at: http://devialetchat.com

    Has anyone heard the Devialet D-Premier Integrated Amp/DAC

    Same here, but I bought my D-Premier in Feb. 2012 and at that moment the moment of introduction of the new models would take another 15 months or so. My D-Premier is in France right now for it's upgrade, hope to receive it back very soon; I miss it dearly!! :( ;)

    Has anyone heard the Devialet D-Premier Integrated Amp/DAC

    I haven't read any explanations from Devialet on this functionality yet but I think it means that the USB port, which is now only an input will also become an output to a computer (and/or maybe another USB DAC) similar to the digital RCA/COAX output you can configure at the moment. I'm sure...

    Has anyone heard the Devialet D-Premier Integrated Amp/DAC

    I read on a German forum that the D-Premier upgrade offer will end at the end of coming July and that the bi-directional USB functionality will become available in a few weeks. (http://www.wmp-forum.de/verst%E4rker-384/devialet-24967/index-213.html#post187848)

    Has anyone heard the Devialet D-Premier Integrated Amp/DAC

    Since you can power the Devialet on and off now using the remote app they must keep at least some parts (including those containing WiFi/ethernet of course) powered on at all times. So it'll use more power in standby and thus create more heat. My D-Premier is in France now for it's 240/250...

    Has anyone heard the Devialet D-Premier Integrated Amp/DAC

    It's more than just acoustic measurements. From the ADH/SAM whitepaper: http://files.computeraudiophile.com/2014/0519/Devialet_WhitePaper_SAM-ADH_Technologies.pdf

    Has anyone heard the Devialet D-Premier Integrated Amp/DAC

    I know some of you here already use a PS Audio Powerplant but two weeks ago I received my PS Audio Power Plant P3 and I couldn't have wished for better results than I got. I was really shocked (in a positive way) that the already so very good sounding D-Premier could improve this much from AC...
