I tried Audirvana UPNP vs Audirvana Air Wifi with my Devialet. The difference is mainly "hardware". With UPNP, the file is played by the CI Board. With Air it's played in the computer and the flow is sent to the DAC directly.

A question : is it possible to use room correction (AU Plugin, like DIRAC) with Audirvana UPNP like Audirvana Air ?
Pardon me, just another software engineer breezing past this thread 7 months later...
Your comment caught my attention because it appears to answer my own longstanding questions about why my JRiver MC24 can't apply DSP to UPNP playback. If it has to deliver a file to the CI board then that would explain it... normal DSP adjustments are made in real time to the data; for UPNP it sounds like the streamer would have to re-generate a whole new, DSP'd file and then send that off in place of the original! I see now why it's not as simple for the software as I first thought.
