| Seller Question - I need UPS to come get these large speaker boxes - how to manage that?

| Connection options from Node to Denafrips Iris to Pontus The U1 I have was considerably improved with the Sbooster power supply. The Node worked well with a USB out into the Iris and then out into the Pontus via I2S. The sound was exceptional. However, once you have the Iris, it ONLY has a USB input. | |

| Streamer/DAC combinations I have the Pontus 2 12th with the Iris DDC and it raised the sou d quality significantly. Still use the Lumin U1 mini and connect it to the Iris with a Nordost purple USB connector, which allows for the I2S input into the Pontus. Each addition mad... | |
