Correct. I hadn't thought about the ethernet links further downstream, but I it makes complete sense given the way the Kii speakers work..
Having said that people report good results when connecting a Melco via direct mode ethernet to the Devialet.
The mind boggles at all the possibilities. Is the Statement shaping the data in any way through upsampling etc?
Having said that I'd still like to test a Statement in my own system and see if it outperforms my d1 server.
