One major advantage of Windows version is that it can play DSD64 materials. Together with FW10.0.2, AIR3.0b sounded good in my setup. More clarity, wider and taller soundstage, more accuracy of instruments separation.
Sadly that is still true with the Mac version. Just tested the Mac AIR3 release candidate and still get the hissy background if try to playback DSD64 via DoP.
So far the release candidate has been very stable for me, as was the prior Beta release. Sound quality is wonderful.
Will have to pull out the Windows 10 laptop and give it another go with the Windows AIR3 beta.
