Can't tell you what it is but everything i play seems to sound amazing. I was happy with usb but this is a different league for me. Didn't do a straight comparison so it could all be in my head ?
It sounds very good to me too.

Can you explain what it is that makes is so good?
The AIR protocol and what makes it better than say UPnP? I'm guessing AIR 3 has had a few improvements to better manage some of the clock related bugs in OSX, this may also be resulting in less jitter, although the buffer in the Devialet should handle that. I suppose the less work the Devialet has to do the better it sounds? Who knows.
