Importance of clocking
@nigeltheflash  I am sorry but you are being argumentative: on your logic the clock in the device is superfluous yet InnuOS expressly extoll its importance and the attached review of the device amply speaks to its sonic benefits. The same applies...

Importance of clocking
@lalitk Fully agreed. InnuOS does though offer a feature for playing local files while isolating the ethernet connection, the so called offline mode under Sense. It would be interesting to know whether disconnecting the ethernet cable from your ...

@jerrybj  +1, thanks for calling these keyboard know-it-alls out. They are wasting everybody‘s time for dubious kicks for themselves
