What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another?
“what are the technical reasons one should sound better than the other?” @mitch2 IME, better parts + power supply and above all, implementation determines how each streamer is voiced. My streamer stood the test of times, in 10 plus years of own...

@signaforce Upsampling upto 24bit/192kHz is only available on Aurender’s higher end digital models like N20, W20SE or N30SA through SPDIF/AES output. All of aforementioned models also features superior OCXO clock. USB is always bit-perfect with ...

@signaforce All of those are very worthy consideration when buying a component unheard. If I may add, the stellar tech support from Aurender. Unless a hardware failure, everything else is easily troubleshooted remotely and promptly. This was a h... 
Mid-Fi, Hi-Fi or.....?
I wouldn’t be too concerned about mid-fi or hi-fi. If you trying to step up to next level, try as many Integrated’s in your home. Sometimes you end up spending 1.5x to 2x for minimal gains…it that worth it, only you can decide.

@signaforce Looks like you’re all set! From what I’ve read here, streamer probably the most under appreciated component in digital streaming. Many here believe that quality of streamer don’t or can’t possibly matter and high quality streamers a...

@signaforce Congratulations on your purchase of N150. Please post your impressions once you’ve settled with N150. And you may already know this, N150’s performance can be further enhanced with a good quality PC, LAN and USB cables.

“The local Aurender dealer has no N150’s in stock” @signaforce  That shouldn’t deter you from ordering one. My dealer didn’t have N30SA in stock, I got mine delivered in 5 days from their warehouse in CA. As far as app, Aurender’s Conductor is on...

Lumin U2 mini would be a noticeable improvement over Node. I would also consider a used Aurender N150.   
Lumin U2 or Aurender N200
@mclinnguy  As @audphile1 suggested, give ENO a shot, preferably with complete ENO streaming system between your Cisco switch and Weiss. That would be a fair comparison between ER and ENO. Before you do, check Ethernet specs on your Weiss. ENO is... 
SnubWay Question Thread
mark @verafiaudio  What is the expected available date?  I have 4 wall warts plugged into a APC UPS back up and surge protector strip. What would be the recommended installation…power strip or the outlet powering the power strip?   
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
“Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?” @nyev I guess you finally have an answer to your query. Well, I hope you had fun throughout this exercise and gained a nice DAC in the process. IMHO, it’s unfair to compare a DAC modules to an outboard ... 
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
@mojo771  Once you find a DAC you really like, upgrade to a better streamer like any of the offerings from Aurender or Innuos. As I mentioned in my first post, I used to own Vault and then upgraded to Aurender ACS100 (I cannot live without a ripp... 
Audio envy - dang!
Darn good cables for not whole lot of money! And Captain (owner) have been very methodical in his approach to fine tune his cables.   
For those that have separate Streamers & DACS
@brskie  Congratulations, great decision and investment!  N20 is a superb player.   
Lumin U2 or Aurender N200
