I received the three Dante dongles I ordered today.
They are physically beautiful.
They are made of solid metal and are tiny.
And for $300 each they are a bargain compared to the brands.
For testing I ran Audinate Dante Via Mac to send music to my Reactor 900.
Compared to my old setup of AV Receive -> ADC -> Toslink -> Reactor, there is almost no idle noise.
I used to hear a hiss with volume around 70. Now there's only a slight hint of noise at 100. Amazing.
Also there's zero delay from when I press play to when I hear music. Unlike Airplay which has a 1-2 sec delay.
My JBL SDP-55 is arriving tomorrow and I will report back this weekend.
