Hi there, Just got my microRendu with iFi PS and I’m already amazed at the difference I can hear in my system. My current setup is the microRendu connected to an Airport Express Wi-Fi extender. I know this can be controversial, but here it goes: does the quality of the Ethernet cable from the Airport Express to the MR influence sound quality? How about the one connecting my NAS to my router? Or is a different power supply a better investment? Thoughts? Thanks! Sergio

I have tickets for Radiohead in New York and The Smashing Pumpkins in Philly, both in the summer. Also thinking of going to Despacio (the “club” thing from James Murphy with 2Many DJs. And will probably see Nils Frahm next weekend and something from the flamenco festival that’s coming up. So many concerts in New York, so little time (and money)... (By the way the NY Philharmonic will play the live score to 2001 next season, starting September. If you’re around, don’t miss it)

It's a yuge threat. Yuuuge. Believe me. This is the worst format in the history of formats and I'm gonna get rid of it. Not only that, we'll make them pay for it. I know a guy that knows a guy, he's a tremendous software engineer, really great, the best. My daughter Ivanka knows him, he's super smart. Super smart. And remember: I alone can fix it.

New Chord Poly Announced
sete replied to The Computer Audiophile's topic in DAC - Digital to Analog Conversion
I'm wondering how will I control playback from the SD card. I'll probably need an app just for that, right? Anyway, very interesting. I just got a Mojo and was about to purchase the cable package with the little boxy connector thingy for the iPhone. Guess I'd better wait. -
What's wrong with DRM? Does it affect sound quality? No, right? (I'm not asking in jest, I don't know much from the tech side of things). I understand the reluctance with DRM if you were actually buying the stuff, and of course Apple's removal from the iTunes Store arguably made the download market possible. But my feeling is that MQA is the perfect way to serve high-res stuff over streaming, as with this Tidal example.

Oh, OK. Thanks. I never bothered to read all the technical stuff behind it! -

Well as far as I know my dac is not MQA compatible (Chord Mojo), and I can still hear music with passthrough enabled. Any explanation? Am I doing something wrong? Though some songs seem to play in a higher quality (88/96 kHz) when MQA decoding is enabled. (Can't really tell the difference, though, I've had a few beers haha) Cheers -

Great review. Especially loved the bit about Doggystyle, one of my favorite records of all time! Cheers, Sergio -
