Probably the dropouts are happening because of your local network setup. I have a Mac Mini (2018), both MacOS and Bootcamp Windows 7 handles the AIR with no dropouts in any resolution. (24bit 192kHz included)
And the most funny part is, I purchased a 100mbit switch to avoid the dropouts and it didn’t work. I ended up upgrading my local network structure and now Mac Mini is connected to the router with a Bluejean network cable (super cheap) and Devialet is also connected in the same way. From the very begining I was a big fan of AIR sound and I am happy to have it both in Mac and Windows back.
Only bug that has newer been solved and still happens is in Windows version. Randomly the AIR app could crash and you won’t be able to reuse AIR without resetting your Devialet. But as this one doesn’t happen super frequently it is not end of the world.
Now my main driver is:
Audirvana -> Dirac Live Processor -> Devialet AIR -> Devialet with a Eth Cab
