Interesting.

It takes the place between the streamer/computer and the DAC/Devialet, right? 
Has a complicated setuo, or not ?

Yes it sits between Computer (or USB streamer) and Devialet. I use mine to 'convert' USB to AES and optical.

I usually prefer the AES input of the Devialet but with the SU-6 the optical input also sounds very good.

I upgraded from the older Singxer SU-1, and the SU-6 is noticeably better. Another friend found the same improvement upgrading from the SU-1 to SU-6, where he is using it between a Roon Nucleus and PS Audio Directstream DAC.

I've been using the SU-6 for a while now (2 years plus). However in spite of the 'galvanic USB isolation', it is *still* affected by the PC USB side. 

Only last month, I found a miracle cure for the USB side - the FIBBR Alpha optical USB cable that I posted about in another thread. With that optical USB cable, I finally feel that the PC side is not negatively affecting the sound anymore.
