I agree with Hifi_swlon, the Armature looks identical to a Singexer F1. So in terms of functionality, it is a rival to the Mutec not the microRendu. Indeed, you could run a microRendu to Armature to Devialet via S/PDIF. You could even run microRendu to Armature to Mutec to Devialet via AES/EBU. The fun never ends!

What about this ARMATURE between the AURALIC MINI (USB output) and Devialet ... since the Auralic is already a nice streamer for those who do not have like me a NAS with USB it could be useful

Technically this should work. How good would it sound? I have no idea. Indeed, as far as I am aware nobody has yet tried a Singxer or Armature with a Devialet, so until we get a few reports from anyone who has tried this, it is an unknown quantity. It is perhaps worth noting that pretty much everyone who has tried a Mutec MC3+USB with a Devialet has reported good results, and this is with a variety of sources. So the Mutec looks like the low risk option. It is more expensive though. We just need a few folk to take a risk and try the Singxer or Armature.
