I had abandoned Air for OSX at 7.1.1 since it was a pain - far too many stops. Unusable with hires, would still start failing after 20 min with 16/44
Two weeks ago, I tested again Ethernet with 8.1.2. Same system, but now not a hiccup - even with 24/192. And much better sound that USB! It is now my preferred source. Pity that I can't use it with DSD
Current: Mac mini- iTunes -> Ethernet cat7 (no brand) -> D200
Before: Mac mini - audirvana+ -> mapleshade USB -> D200
