Here's another recent review of the Mano ULTRA mkIII Farad Music Streamer:-

I have a Innuos Zenith and the Phoenix Network and USB on my main system. For my secondary system, I am strongly tempted to not try other streamers where the connection to the DAC is via I2S, and not as expensive as devices on the Innuos ecosystem.
The Holo Audio Red streamer is another option. It can serve as a DDC or a streamer.
Any updates on your end as to where you are now on your streamer journey? It sure is going to be a long journey ... LOL.
