What is the best digital source
#49
My best digital source is my Roon Nucleus, powered using a Linear Power Supply (my own DIY using Choke filtration) & AudioQuest Z3 powercord. The Roon Nucleus is connected to my 440-Pro using AudioQuest Diamond Ethernet in a completely isolated IP address away from the DHCP that the Nucleus streams using my Router. It is Roon RAAT connection. This was possible with the kind help from @David A .

My next best source would be my CEC TL-0X CD Transport with AudioQuest Z3 powercord hooked to my 440-Pro using AudioQuest Diamond AES/EBU XLR. 

The Nucleus source wins over my CD Transport with lower noise levels. My CEC TL-0X CD Transport, Roon Nucleus & its LPSU are on IsoAcoustics OREA Bronze footers.
