I think most of us would agree that connecting your DAC via USB pretty much sucks. If it didn't, there wouldn't be a growing market for isolators, decrapifiers, regenerators and digital converters. To get an I2S signal into my DAC I use a Singxer SU-1 to convert a USB input signal to I2S output. Magni HiFi is now selling an updated version of their streamer, the Mano ULTRA. (link) The Mano ULTRA takes an Ethernet input and creates an I2S output. I'm wondering which of these two devices is going to give me the BEST performance? The Mano ULTRA is supposed to have improvements in power distribution, better capacitors, an upgraded power supply and an improved reclocking circuit. I have zero experience with the original Mano or the new and improved Mano Ultra. I thought I'd bring my question to the group for feedback.
