Any experience with Magna Mano Ultra MkIII streamer

Hi,

Has someone heard the Magna Mano Ultra MkIII? Any feedbacks on how it sounds and compared to any other streamer you may have used?

I will primarily use it for Roon (Qobuz) and Spotify. And if software allows for HQPlayer NAA.

The other streamer I am considering is Holo Red streamer.

I'm also curious about this network streamer. I'm looking for something I can run Squeezebox LMS on. I wonder if it's an upgrade from Raspberry pi with Allo digione signature card.?

I’m looking for something I can run Squeezebox LMS on.

Both the Holo Audio Red Streamer and the SOtM SMS200 Ultra Neo (and the lessor model SMS200) have LMS support built in.

The Red is a $850 streamer, the SMS200 Ultra Neo is $1,200.

The SMS streamers only output USB, the Red has a full compliment of outputs USB, BNC, AES-EBU, Toslink and I2S.

Neither of these have an associated music App and would have to be used with an outboard front end like ROON, etc.

The Magna Ultra Mk III is a great streamer! Set up was easy with Ropieee and Bubble UPnP. Streaming with Qobuz.

The sound quality is superior to any streamer I’ve owned which I believe is attributable to the Farad power supply. I would describe the sound as having a velvety richness.

About the Magna Ultra Mk III, does anyone know if it can play DSD files and put out DoP?
