Thanks for the detailed reply, much appreciated.

I haven't had a lot of time to sit down and do any proper listening sessions, currently getting ready for a big trip to the USA/Canada (LA, Alaska - main part of trip, Vancouver, Las Vegas & San Fran), it's my wife's 40+10th (not allowed to say 50, that's a big no no   ).

I've an Antipodes DS Server and listen to my music via USB from this to my Pro using Roon. Only listening to my music files stored on the HDD of the Antipodes at present, but when I return from our trip will give Tidal a try (have a couple of free vouchers so more time to listen then). I'm also tempted to give the Stello U3 / MIT Proline Reference AES a try from the Antipodes to the Pro, but know the Stello U3 isn't high quality so worried this will detract from the sound.

I don't have a grounding box, but believe it's possible to attach the Aqvox to the Pro if required (some say not to as this could transfer noise form the Aqvox). Good grounding boxes aren't cheap, but believe there are meant to be a few good(ish) cheap ones from China via eBay, but which one to get (I don't want to punt for the wrong one).

I know the best approach would be to get a grounding box, but funds a bit short at present as got made redundant last month, and lots of money going out for our big trip above.

Glad the Aqvox is doing good things for your set-uo 

Cheers
John
