Meitner MA3i DAC Review

Thanks @sfpeloton !

I’ll keep you posted. 

What Ethernet cable are you guys using with your Meitner?

I am not using any special network hardware or cable with my MA3i NET input. I had an audiophile switch, clock, and power supply but sold it when I acquired a MA3 as they made no difference.  Try an experiment with this.

Try the MA3i output direct to your amp. You may be searching for a new preamp.

Thanks @delm 

I’m not using any network tweaks other than the Purist CAT7 Ethernet cable and I have a LinkUp cable from Amazon as well as I throw it into the mix. Comparing the two, as with all other streamers I had, the Purist wins. That’s why I was interested in what others use. Purist is good but I think it can be improved upon

Also, I run the MA3i into Boulder 866 integrated amp. Volume control is bypassed on the Meitner by setting it to 100.
