Worry not! I ran my D240/250 and then D800 for a long time using AIR. Since then I have been trying many things, streamers, endpoints and so on. I now run a microRendu, Mutec front end. Is it better than AIR? Yes it is, but not by a massive margin. Last weekend I tried AIR with the 1000 Pro, it was absolutely fine, I could sit listening to it all day. (all year even, if I had the time)
So if you have your Devialet and speakers, why not just enjoy the music and forget about all the stuff like optimising for jitter reduction? For me, I do find this stuff very interesting, but sometimes I just want to forget about all the 'audiophile' tweaking and just enjoy some tunes. So if you are happy with how your set-up sounds, then just enjoy the music, that would make you the smart one!
Now we´re talking the right language!
The music is the most important element.
I´m almost there, i guess. Tunning the gear properly without tons of stuff (money and time consuming...) and then hitting the foot against the carpet, if you know what i mean.
