Sonore Streamers

[GuillaumeB]

microRendu is in Da House!

Just received it along with the iFi  power supply.  Took all of about 10 minutes to unpack it,  hook it up to my Dev 200, select the Roon app for it, and enable it in Roon audio. Piece of cake!  Probably took me as long to apply the tiny little rubber feet than getting it to work.  Total piece of cake.

Now, I can't speak to sound quality just yet but based on all of maybe 20 minutes listening, it sounds pretty awesome and probably every bit as good as AIR if not better.  But give me a few days and a chance to switch back and forth between it and AIR and I'll report back.

Question for all of you that have already been using USB input to the Dev ... While my Devialet is 10 months old, this is the first I've used the USB input.   Have you found that the USB input benefits from break-in?   Just curious.

One very minor disappointment...   It comes with a USB type A male to type B male adapter.  Unfortunately, if you're using the Devialet RCA inputs closest to the USB port on the back of the Devialet (or at least, on my 200), you won't be able to align the mRendu to use the adapter.   Perhaps if the RCA connectors you plug into the Devialet were just slightly smaller, it might work.  Not a problem really since I have a nice 1' USB type A to type B cable that works nicely.

Woohoo... like Christmas in May!

Now that is exciting!
