Auralic forever! They used a CD jacket of J.S Bach I did in their advertising of the AURALiC ALTAIR G1. A company with great taste! 😇

Just imagine how many LPs one could buy for it ...<br>.... and get an analog sound (as a bonus)

The DS Lightning app sounds better than Roon. The sonic difference is how Roon processes streaming data vs. proprietary software. Roon has to take whatever the network is feeding and process it in realtime to the DAC. Where as the likes of Auralic and Aurender caches the file to make sure that the processor has the time to fully process the music to the original quality. I always thought the lack of quality in streaming was due to all the noise introduced, but am now convinced that it’s the way the files are processed.

Auralic make great stuff. I have an Aries G2 coupled to a Denafrips Terminator Plus Dac and it is a sublime combination. The only thing that slightly irks is that Auralic does not fit an I2S output via hdmi, sticking to their proprietary connector which can only be used with Auralic Dacs.

Another great review.<br>Well i now wonder using the internal dac of the Vega, pair this to the music fidelity m8xi you reviewed recently and again another great review, i can imagine how it may then sound.

Great Riff as ever. I use a Chord TT2 and MScaler, with a Quad Artera Analogue Pre amp for my Rega P8...any thoughts on using the TT2 as a Pre amp? If so, how might I use the P8 - as the TT2 is digital only? A future Riff?

I've just purchased the Naim nss333, which sounds fantastic .. Atoms a great all in one for the money, but it's a few years old now
