  1. I have a pair under my KEF LS50's that sit on my desk to get them to the proper height. The part the speaker sits on is rubber and has a good amount of friction. I have not tried putting them at an angle, but the speakers don't try to slip off at all. Good luck )
  2. I have a very revealing system, IMO, and just bought the el cheapo Gustard off Amazon based upon the Head--Fi raves. The reason I needed one is my computer is about 20 feet away from my DAC and the USB repeater kept dropping out. I have mostly run the Gustard over i2s but have also listened to the AES/EBU XLR and I have to say it is excellent. System is Synology NAS -> Mac Pro 2013 -> JRiver -> Gustard U12 --> PS Audio Directstream-> BAT VK 52SE -> BAT VK 655SE -> Revel Salon 2 My only caveat is that the I2s over HDMI only works with DSD and on PCM it only works with the right channel. I compared the I2S 2x DSD vs. AES/EBU with DSD 1x vs I2S with DSD 1x vs AES/EBU with PCM vs PS Audio bridge and the best sound IMO was with JRiver converting to 2x DSD and transferring over I2S. They were all very good but I liked the 2x DSD by a small margin. Cant go go wrong for $170, IMO it is definitely worth a shot before you spend a lot on a more expensive one.
