Showing a sample of my set-up:
KiiThree speaker with internal DACs and amps
ADI 2 DAC and Sennheiser HDVA 600 for headphones
Stellar LPS and Pachanko Constellation Mini and part of my Diretta bridge
(Not visible is another Stellar but from PS Audio – a phono stage)
That update gave me more dynamics and better tonality. I happened to be listening to some classical music, first Beethoven and then L Bernstein and I was shocked a couple of times by crashing instrumental sounds.
Thank you. So now I access the Diretta. I looked around saw there were updates for Target and host. Should do these updates? (I wrote a chat message to PachankoLas first this may be of interest to other owners too so please forgive me for asking twice)
I wanted to ask about interacting with the Pachanko server. My Constellation mini has a VGA output and USB sockets. Do you hook up an old screen with VGA and a keyboard to control the Diretta using an app called Anydesk? I have never tried that. Or do you access it over your network?

Today Mr Chan kindly asked to do an update to the Diretta software and of course I agreed but I confess that I was a little skeptical as to if it could improve the already marvelous sound. A restart later I continued with Laurie Andersson’s Landfall, her latest studio album that has lots of...
So now I have used my Stellar power supply, Constellation mini and Diretta for a week. I am trying Roon for the first time in my life streaming from Qobuz and I also attached a usb disc with thosands of ripped cds. I am very happy with the sound of it through my Kii Three speakers.
Congratulations Tip Top,
and thanks for posting.
Are you still happy with the Pachanko?
I am waiting for one that is being built to my order . And the power supplier and the Diretta. It will probably outperform my present streamer although I have not compared them A to B.
Cheers
