Interesting comparison between uRendu, Aurender N10 (&W20):

Seems like a huge bargain.

Thanks for sharing, very cool outcome there! Happy to read he's also going for a Paul Hynes PSU like I am.

I am using the Melco N1A into digital active speakers (with USB, SPDIF and AES/EBU inputs) and it was your posts on the Mutec and Intona that got me interested in the Mutec. So, I am considering Melco > USB > Mutec > AES > speakers.

Now, I am wondering if I can skip the Mutec and go Melco > ethernet > uRendu > USB > speakers instead.

From your first impressions of the uRendu, inserting it before the Mutec made a significant difference.

It's very hard for me to think with you in this. I honestly think the Devialet USB interface is not the best out there but you're not using a Devialet. If you were I'd certainly recommend both the microRendu and Mutec in tandem. The things I'm hearing now are really great. OTOH the Mutec seems to improve almost any DAC out there so I perhaps should not be so harsh about the Devialet, and would also not be surprised if it did improve things in your case as well.

Sorry, also never heard the Melco's so really can't tell if a microRendu would better it. I'm afraid it will though just based on what I'm reading thus far.

I hope you can find a way to home demo the devices or will find comparisons by people who use the same equipment as you.
