Thanks Emile for the updates. We may need to look into fanless NAS to place in our listerning room then. Like this one.

I did ask Emile the same question before. He is confident that the analog out of XDMI will be better than non native XDMI out. But then if one choose the 1st approach, the bottle neck will be at the AD converter.
Btw, I am using Merging Hapi as the AD converter and I have my whole digital...
May be I am wrong, my understanding is that an adapted DAC make use of XDMI propriety digital out. If you use XDMI usb/spdif/ aes out via a daughter board , you can use a standard DAC. But Emile can confirm that.
Hi guys. I am using DSP crossover and an AD converter card from Merging Technologies to convert my LP analog to digital for processing. For my digital side, I am using Taiko Extreme and in the past, I use the digital output of Extreme to connect to my dsp crossover but it isn’t possible anyway...
I am also a Ravenna user and since I am using dsp crossover all linked to Revanna in and out. I am also currently using 2 NiC card in my extreme. Right now I have to use Roon SRC to make all output 24/96 so it is compatible with my dsp XO. I have placed my order with Olympus server upgrade...
Hi Emile, I am using Merging Ravenna. Is there any benefit upgrading to Olympus if I intended to continue using Ravenna? The reason is that I have digital XO and I am using Merging Hapi with 9 channels DAC
Report from Asia. Update was quick and easy. All via Taiko router and switch. Sound is more holographic, bass more solid, more 3D. I am solely a Roon user. Cannot be happier!
Yes. It’s part of Revanna protocol. I am using taiko card for my Revanna as well. (2 Taiko NIC in my extreme) I reported that it did improve the music presentation. I noted that the network clock jitter was improved. But I now want to see if that’s due to PTPV2 compliant that is supposed to come...
Dear Emile, I noticed that the Taiko NIC is using I210 Intel chipset. I also noticed that this chip support IEEE 1558 standard. Am I ask you does that mean your card also support this standard!
