AIR 3 beta for Windows

[pete86]

Im running AIR 3.0.1 beta on a Windows 10 NUC running Roon and HQPlayer, upsampling to DSD64. Turned on a playlist when I went to sleep. 8 hours later and music was still playing. Been playing all morning at 176.4 PCM and still nothing but music. No drop outs no white noise or any unwanted clicks so far!

Did you compare SQ to your other reference source (USB?)? What do you think about AIR3 SQwise ?

I haven't had a chance to compare with what I used to use (USB through an Uptone Regen), but early impressions are really good. Better than how I remember AIR 2 sounded, which I never thought USB quite matched. I plan to do some direct comparisons soon, but for now I'm still testing for reliability.
