Core Infinity listening impressions and comparisons
Hello everyone,

First impression after a week listening my D250 Pro, but I need to go further into testing.
My configuration is using an upgraded Mac Mini, Roon Air / Air 3 Wifi via Airport Extreme - Roon or Audirvana player.

Last but not least, firmware is still bugged even if there is a big improvement with Air Wifi. Using Roon and Audirvana, the main bug relies in frequency switching that provokes a full stop between 2 different sample files. Also dropouts from time to time, at higher sample rates. With my Aiport Extreme close to the Devialet, ilt's nearly perfect.
A nice surprise using UPNP feature with Audirvana (my D250 is recognized immediately) ; file is sent by Wifi and played by CI card, which appears to be very good at it. Differences with Air Wifi are difficult to ear ; UPNP is steadier and would need a less sophisticated "source", possibly just a NAS or a computer without any tweak.
I did not compared Air/Wifi to Air/wired yet.

Worik in progres...

Regards,
I.
