Since I’m having a problem with being unable to play Mac mini Audirvana through upnp so I cannot compare that to my current Mac mini to Devialet by usb. Did anyone test usb from a Mac to upnp on pro with CI? The reason I’m asking, I’m frustrated as my upnp does not work. However if some one will confirm that usb sq is not worse than upnp or air, then I will sleep well againWink

On another note, I have a lot of iso sacd images on my nas and I found only Audirvana can play them, so who things there is better setup then Mac mini to Devialet and what would it be? Maybe not this forum, sorry for this
If you don’t want to use Audirvana to play your ISOs, you can use a Mac program by Sonore called ISOtoDSD to convert them, then play them with your chosen software, probably Roon in your case. If you decide to use ISOtoDSD, don’t forget to copy your artwork to the new folder that your DSD files are in.

Thanks for the tip, I will use Audirvana to play ISO I have 7 tb of music and converting will take a monthWink

I know the feeling. I spent most of last week converting ISOs to DSD, then copying them to my NAS drive and to the backup drives. Boring work, but well worth the effort.

I heard from a reliable source it was penned for 2025. The initial planning phase anyway. You wouldn’t believe how complex the coding is for a rotating dial. Expect to be dazzled!
