Auralic Aries and Devialet 200

[ErikM]

I use an Aries LE with my Devialet 120, connected via USB. I belong to the category of people who believe that, as long as you can transfer a bit stream without errors from a file or CD to the DAC, sound quality cannot be different between streamers/cables/types of connection... But it's just my opinion, and I'm perfectly happy with my current setup !

Then don't listen to an Aurender in your setup because my new Aurender N100H is simply heads and shoulders better than what my Aries (not an LE) sounded like.. It would be great if what you say is true, but it's not. One would think that an Aries with a LPS and a good power cable and a good USB should be as good as it gets.. wish it was so, but it just isn't. And I can't even to begin to explain why..just is
