Music Server Advice
@fastfreight  Time will tell how Roon implementation will sound compared to Conductor app. Based on my interactions with Aurender chief designer, they will try to keep the signal as faithful as possible to original bits. That’s been a hallmark of... 
Upgrade
“My question is, at a later date is it possible to upgrade the device to the Zenith Mk 3 or would I have to trade it in to upgrade.” As far as I know, Innuos don’t offer hardware upgrades to their customers. You would need to trade in Zen MK3 tow... 
Music Server Advice
“Would the top Aurender best the Grimm as both Server and Streamer?” @fastfreight  After listening to MU1, I can say MU1 is not in the same league as N20 and N30SA.  The N20 clearly excels in terms of low frequency extension and slam. Based on m... 
Best Connection Method for a Sub(s)
Having owned both JL and REL subs, for 2 channel audio; high level connection is my preferred way to go. I would never consider another sub that does not offer high level connectivity.   
Hi Fi Tuning Supreme fuse-Burn In?
@macdude  Based on my listening impressions after trying variety of fuses, Supreme Cu is by far the best fuse for digital components if you’re after organic and slightly warm sound…zero listening fatigue.   
Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like"
@thyname, @verafiaudio  Thank you both for the clarification. I’ve yet to figure out how I am going to implement a SDFB as the receptacles in my Mr. T are in very close proximity with one another. Implementing SDFB means sacrificing the use of ne... 
Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like"
“We are in process right now with developing new and more "advanced" Sluggos.  This includes materials - and "treatments" . Some pretty exotic variants are coming” @verafiaudio  Any idea on the cost of these exotic sluggos? And what happens when...

Benefits of adding a 10MHz Master Clock to a digital system
Jeff @jjhaz  Given the above two components, I recommend you audition both Vivaldi Master Clock or Aurender MC20 in your system.   
Network optimization for serious streamers
Jerry @carlsbad2  Does your streamer supports 1GB speed? If yes, then you should hear a marked improvement with 1GB Ethernet.   
Network optimization for serious streamers
@fastfreight I vote for 2nd M12 premium…lol! All jokes aside, if you’re using a Muon Pro ahead of MU1, do you think adding a 2nd M12 would further improve performance? I’m also running a 50FT LAN from my Xfinity modem to my M12, then 1.0M JCAT S... 
Network optimization for serious streamers
@macdude  I tried few but end up settling with JCAT’s DC cables which uses PC-OCC 0.7mm² double shielded for lossless transmission of power.   
Network optimization for serious streamers
“not being able to replace the DC cable on the modem is a deal breaker.” Tell me about it! I got lucky, the folks at Xfinity thought of everything, the modem comes with detachable DC cable 😊  
Network Acoustics Muon ethernet filtering system - Improving streaming sound quality
@mitch2 Fiber conversion in my system just never connected me to music, the way copper base Ethernet LAN does. There is just more emotional engagement with copper LAN vs Fiber that sounds dry and lean not to mention the added baggage (LPS) and c...
