Perhaps, if you have an opportunity in future, you might want to try the Melco -> USB -> Devialet vs Melco -> ethernet -> mRendu -> USB -> Devialet.
I am using the USB output of the Melco N1A and was wondering how the USB output would compare. Of course, there is also now the SOtM sms-200 to contend with.
I can't see how Melco -> Ethernet -> microRendu -> USB -> Devialet could be made to work? Via Ethernet the Melco basically works as a NAS drive. To use the mR, you would need to load the mR apps onto the Melco and running the music server software on the Melco? I am not sure if this can be done, I think you basically need some form of computer to run a mR. I might be wrong? Can any Melco wizards advise?
