    @devilboy , glad to hear! Indeed, the Audio Midi Setup needs to be set correctly. If you use roon/audirvana where the software can take exclusive control of the Audio Device (USB DAC/DDC). Guide: https://www.denafrips.com/mac-os

    DENAFRIPS USB receiver disabled the Mac/Windows mixer for bit perfect operation. You may use the software's (youtube/jriver/roon etc) to adjust the volume. My recommendation is to use a proper preamp for volume control. I personally avoid digital volume control as *I prefer analog volume...

    That's correct, @martin778. Streamer->USB Output-> GAIA DDC->HDMI i2s->Terminator-Plus DAC GAIA is a DDC, Digital To Digital converter, it accepts USB/Coax/AES/Optical input. For computer audio system users, I would highly recommend a DDC as the DDC helps to isolate the computer noise...
