Has anyone used the new Innuos 2.0 Sense music app? Compared it to Roon?

Charles, good for you taking plunge into streaming. Streaming was simple affair in beginning for me, now completely OCD with it! Just can't seem to stop with the experimentation, has replaced my diy modding with rest of system.

With rest of system extremely likely to be end game for me, streaming last frontier for me. Don't know what I'll do when its finalized, need to rid myself of upgradeitus at some point!

Next upgrade after transceivers and optical cable will be Telegartner switch, none of the other audiophile switches impress with technology, also positive reviews from Latik and others. This assumes present router is weak link.,

At the end of the day we are who we are.😊

You have a perfectionist streak that continues to push you ever further with exploratory zeal. There’s nothing wrong with that within reasonable boundaries (Which I believe you have).

Admittedly I’m not a perfectionist. I can be thoroughly content with merely the very good-exceptionally good range. Key to long term success/happiness with audio is knowing yourself.  I enjoy reading about your pursuits.

Wow Charles! Look at that power supply with 3 individual trannys and a couple of chokes. Love it! I think I even see a couple of Audio Note Kaisei capacitors as well as AN top shelf Tantalum resistors. I will spend more time on their site and poke around. I have no doubt you will enjoy this dac for many, many years!

Bill,

Your identification is accurate concerning his part selection. he does emphasize however that you have to properly mix and match these parts. For example he really likes the Blackgate capacitors and Audio Note non magnetic Tantalum resistors. But says too many of them can be counterproductive.

Bill, I know that you specifically will appreciate this. He believes in proper wire orientation. He says through listening,  wire does indeed sound better in a particular direction. He knows this is controversial (For some) but doesn’t care, he bases it on what he hears. This stuff takes time. Just another reason why it is a 3 month build commitment. I know that you would understand this approach.

He and Graham, the builder of your Tron Audio DAC share overlapping philosophical beliefs. BTW Bill, when Abbas utilizes transistors, he sonically prefers vintage Germanium over silicon.😊
