In fact just to try quickly I wanted to shito _ETH. I also did pick up "Max Volume (?)" on Roon and all hell broke loose - SHOCKER. Nothing worked!. Anyways AIR3 was re-started, took a while for Roon to identify the Zone. Then PLAY = ALL GOOD ONCE AGAIN .(27-May-2016, 13:51)Jnan_devi Wrote: @Hifi_swlon Yes I did notice a very short pauses. Happened about few days ago. I read my post again, "happens " should have been happened. That's when I increased delay from 0.5sec to 1sec to 2sec. No issues since then.
Coming back to AIR3_WIFI playing 24/192 - plays perfectly. Played about 5 tracks, not a single issue. All downloads from B&W music society. Devialet also displays 192.
<edit> I have packed my AQ jitter bug and cable for a rainy day.
Sadly, my initial euphoria is wearing off. It seems that AIR3 is not completely bulletproof, and I am getting too many instances of short pauses, and Dalek stuttering every now and then. I though it was limited to WiFi, but actually, it is no better with a wired connection, and happens on all formats. I just switched it over to a new quad-core iMac with 32GB, and it makes no difference. I suppose I could blame Dirac, but as @Hifi_swlon commented a while ago, once you get used to it, there is no going back. I didn't order a uRendu, but if I had one, I wouldn't be in a rush to sell it just yet.
Anyways I moved back to WIFI. Shifting WIFI to ETH is no issue, but on Roon i picked different volume control > Save > Got those issues.
Hence i wrote earlier. Dont want to touch anything. "Just music".
SQ - I m still not sure (Between AIR3 Vs USB) but AIR3 Convenience is simply very good. However I could judge Indian Classical music which i felt AIR3 was distinctively better.
