I don't quite enjoy having a huge chain of USB tweaks (aq jitterbug, sbooster vbus, vertere d-fi USB cable, Regen with sbooster ultra on a zu event power cord, short supra USB cable). These USB tweaks cost as much as the mini itself. Plus there are a few other things u can add to this USB chain (intona, wyred4sound USB reclocker, linear power supplies, better USB cables). Just too many options to improve the sound. Just preferred to enjoy the music. Don't get me wrong, the tweaks I already had in place is better than AIR on Ethernet. And, very technical issues with pretty good user interface including tidal integration.

Using a Moon Mind180 with a Teddy PSU and AES, New Mind app on iPad. All very good.
However, the new Qobuz integration on Audirvana+ has me using the Mac Mini (fully maxed for audio) with optical, and it sounds the same. AIR has never worked properly for me and still doesnt, but when its OK, its about the same as the above two.

Yeah the one thing I wish the Aries Mini supported which it's big brothers do is support for DSD over the S/PDIF output.
