Which streaming input on the Devialet sounds best to you?

It might be worth experimenting on a cheap USB cable. Strip out the 5V power line, and you should in effect have isolated the Dev from any upstream power nasties.

I haven't tried this myself, so can't vouch for its effectiveness.

I read somewhere this wasn't very effective, can't remember where though. Do you use USB with you MM?

I used to stream direct from my NAS (Synology DS213J) via USB, but now I have JRiver running on dedicated Windows machine over ethernet.

TBH the main motivation for switching from USB wasn't SQ: it was the clunky NAS control point, which I grew to hate.

JRiver is a fantastic way of organizing music, especially if, like me, you have a large classical collection with complex tagging. And the JRemote iPad app is just stunning.
