Here's hoping. The original SSR has an astoundingly good sound that I would put up against any source out there. You will pry it from my cold dead hands. It's worth nothing that the SSR consistently sounds better - slightly weightier with crisper imaging - when it does the FLAC decompression. Sending decoded WAV from, say, JRiver never sounds as good. (Theoretically this shouldn't be the case, but it clearly is.) Audirvana *only* sends decompressed audio so I'm interested to hear where it ranks.

To be clear, the Sonore Signature Rendu (SPDIF/I2S) does not currently work at all with Audirvana 3.1. The software sees the renderer as an output option but FLAC and DSF fail to play; Audirvana simply skips to the next track until the playlist ends. DSF creates some nasty pops on my system.

When was this discontinued? Any particular reason you can share? Fwiw I own one. Some of the best money I ever spent, I love it.

What file formats can the micro rendu decode and render? FLAC/ALAC/MP3/OGG/WAV/AIFF/WMA/AAC/DSF/DFF...? I assume it can handle all these but I haven't seen this explicitly stated anywhere.

Thanks Jesus, DLNA volume control is an essential feature to me. (I recommend putting this into the product description.) Is it the same 32-bit volume used in the Signature Rendu?

Does the micro Rendu support DLNA volume control (like the Signature Rendu)? I'm surprised this hasn't been discussed yet...
