microRendu - Sound Quality observations and comparisons

[octaviars]

This is actually very interesting as it would tell if the microRendu performs better than Vincent's built-in CuBox.  Hope someone in the UK can lend you a microRendu!

The problem with this is that you would also compare USB vs. AES as the totaldac only has AES output and as many think including me the Devialet sounds better with AES input, just my opinion.

Not necessarily. The mR would connect via USB to the totaldac re clocker and output to AES. In which case we are comparing mR to cubox.

I know that you can do that, but the mR would still be going throug the USB input and it's implementation and the internal signal would go directly to the re-clocker so perhaps not a fair test but I can be wrong about this......
