AIR 2.1.3 was nothing but a headache (periodic BSOD, drop outs and white noise). I quit trying and bought a Sonore microRendu.
Then AIR 3 beta came out. It worked better than 2.1.3 and actually sounded better - just as good as the microRendu. It would occasionally result in white noise, but quite predictably - when I used the computer running AIR or if I changed the Devialet input while AIR was streaming.
I'm now using AIR 3.0.1 beta and it seems to be working perfectly (or, at least, I haven't yet found any issues after using it for a few days). So now I have just as much confidence in AIR as I do with my microRendu.
Congrats Devialet for finally getting this accomplished. Time to get the production version released!
