I had given up on Air WiFi, despite getting a signal strength -40dBm it would never entertain Audirvana+ 1.5.12 and a straight iMac - iTunes would collapse into motorboating and other unpleasant sounds after a few minutes.
Air3 WiFi now works fine, I can't comment about any improvements in SQ as it's been so long since I heard it as a source.
Fine until I select a file with a different bit rate which causes Audirvana and iTunes to sit there defiantly and refuse to load until I restart Audirvana.
So all in all, the Beta version giveth and taketh away.If nothing else it's a good test of memory trying to recall the differing bit rates of each file, and good exercise walking from room to room to restart Audirvana.
