Which streaming input on the Devialet sounds best to you?

Alternatively I use ethernet as being nearly equivalent in quality. XLR, though, is still a tick more detailed and clearer in micro dynamics.

In terms of software PureMusic is the app of choice when feeding the INT203 even though its user interface is a bit oldfashioned. It does gapless without a hitch while I never saw the other players for Mac perform flawlessly in my environment.

For my taste the wireless option depends too much on the density of wireless traffic in the neighbourhood.

Hi Mohmm, I didn't consider the AES/EBU input a streaming input as you need a device other than the Devialet. UPnP was added to the poll by Guillaume (he asked first). But it doesn't matter, thanks for sharing your findings! Smile
