Hi Confused,
Well I think you can include to NUC to that list, at least with the Mutec MC3+USB in the chain. Yes, I agree it's cleaner sounding, more micro detail can be heard and with 'relaxed' I might indeed have suggested something else than what I meant. What I meant is not more laid back or something like that but less nervousness, so a more steady and natural portrayal of the music. Perhaps I could also say more fluent.
I did indeed think about connecting the NUC and now NUC+TX-USBUltra directly to the Devialet. Earlier I read about Dan's experience and also your experiments and these absolutely warrant this test. The USB input of my Devialet is still 100% new and unused! When I'm completely used to the sound of the system as it is today (and perhaps after changing to the latest and maybe new favorite Lush^2 configuration which I guess you're looking at as well ) I will try to do this. With the 70cm Lush^2 I should be able to reach the Devialet with ease. So, to be continued, one day!
