We have finally received our new dCS Network Bridge.
The internal architecture of the Bridge is based on the excellent Stream 820 board from Stream Unlimited in Vienna. Stream 820 is a variant of the board used in Rossini, which has been further modified and enhanced by dCS.
Particular attention to detail has been paid to the power supply, helping to ensure ultra-low noise throughout the circuits. dCS have also been able to play with the Clocking in every effort to minimise jitter. This helps makes compatibility with third party D-A converters as wide as possible. The network Bridge is most definitely not just for existing dCS owners!
We connected the Network Bridge in our demo room yesterday and had music within 5 minutes. It is very simple to operate, almost plug and play.
Roon integration is fabulous. Initial sound quality impressed but further testing will be needed to find out what combinations work best.
Hope to add to this when we have had time to experiment.
