My main interest is the gadget. I've been reading about it for what seems like a couple years so whatever form gets it to market first has my vote.

Received my Yggy upgrade (Analog 2 + USB Gen 5) a few days ago. While it certainly took a while (I ordered as soon as it became available) I am happy with the results. While I do not have an original Yggy to do a pure A/B comparison, my subjective opinion is that the Yggy sounds a bit smoother...

I'm guessing they are backed up a bit. I got my RMA notice on April 10th and sent my Yggy in right away. Received an e-mail that my DAC arrived at Schiit on April 13th. Have not heard anything since.

Essentially identical to this: https://www.diablocable.com/18196.html

I concur. Based on an old CA thread I hopped on the fiber optic train about a year and a half ago. Have a fiber optic switch, a bunch of FMC's and a few fiber NIC's. I can relate to having the tinkering gene.

Life on the bleeding edge of this nutty hobby. Roll with the punches and enjoy the journey...

Mentioned this on another site but thought I would comment here as well. Just purchased a Schiit Eitr for 2nd system but spent some time with it in my primary system (Rednet D16>Mutec MC3+>Yggy with Antelope liveclock/Cybershaft external clocking). The Eitr did not usurp the tricked out Rednet...

That may have been me as I went thru an external clock binge about a year ago. I think I also mentioned that while I noticed an improvement we are talking small incremental changes and not night and day stuff. Not nearly the sq improvement in my system as the RedNet D16 or Mutec were. Cherry on...

  Sure, the Mutec 3 will reclock but my understanding is that the MC-3+USB is actually a later generation product with some additional features (not same product with addition of USB interface). I have not heard the Mutec 3 so hopefully someone who has heard both side by side can provide...

My opinion is that the Rednet clock is actually pretty good. Having both external clock(s) along with Mutec I would advise getting the Mutec first. The Mutec really is a very flexible audio swiss army knife.

I heard about this a few months ago but looks like it is now available for for Hilo and Aurora DAC/ADC products from the usual Pro Audio Places (Sweetwater etc..)   http://www.lynxstudio.com/product_detail.asp?i=80     So Burl B2 Bomber has Company. Guessing we will see more positive moves...

  I am by no means pushing a transport on anybody.  The D16 is staying in my system and will continue to be the mainstay of my Computer Audio system. I was just really surprised that the Yggy/PWT combo sounded as good as it did.  As mentioned, I find the sq essentially identical to Rednet...

To be honest, I did not even think about that combo but I can put it on my list of things to try out....

  Well, in the order of SQ "Improvements" I would rank my gadgets as follows:   1) Rednet D16 2) Mutec MC-3 + USB 3) Clocks (Antelope Liveclock and Cybershaft)   The Clocks come in a distant third. Since the Yggy cannot use an external clock the benefits are strictly on improvement over...

Before I purchased my RedNet D16 I had a Sonore Microrendu. My opinion of the uRendu was very positive - best USB connection I've had but not up to AOIP.  Since then the Uptone LPS-1 has become very popular and many have said that the uRendu needs higher end LPS to bring out its best. So I...

Running Windows 10 Pro on two PC's (Puget Systems Serenity Pro and CAPS Pipeline). I have hooked up the RedNet D16 to both PC's and the CAPS with and without AO. I have not noticed a difference in sq when using AOIP between any of these configs. This is with Yggy connected via AES.    When I...

I understand and appreciate the DIY enthusiasm. Am interested in sq of those that have a RedNet and decide to experiment with this type of mod.  If reports are good I may indeed go this route. At the same time I also think it would be great if we could also get an inexpensive off the shelf...

Yes. What I am really hoping to see some time this year is a 2/4 channel  AOIP box with Brooklyn 2 Dante card (192Khz) with ability to use third party LPS. In the meantime I have no complaints using the D16. 

Have not done a comparison of MicroRendu vs the UnDAES-O but have done one between MicroRendu vs RedNet D16 and preferred the AOIP solution. A couple of points, however:   1) Even though I preferred the RedNet, I thought the MicroRendu was very good. In fact I thought it was better than CAPS...

Agree with many of above. Lot of gear changes over past year on my end and am very happy with current sq. If power supply turns out to be a weakness to the RedNet boxes than I am happy to wait out and investigate the inevitable Dante based solution which allows for external power supply option. ...

  Yes, very nice news for those looking for more inexpensive Dante solutions that don't need the additional features of the RedNet boxes. Step in the right direction for further consumer audio adoption.

Some pertinent info from another thread:   http://www.head-fi.org/t/784471/what-a-long-strange-trip-its-been-robert-hunter/1410#post_13075230

 The only differences that I am aware of between the two units are:   1) D16 can do 176Khz sample rate (Brooklyn 2 card) 2) D16 has 2 Ethernet ports 3) D16 has Smaller footprint 4) RedNet 3 needs a DB25 snake cable   I have not heard any claims from Dante or Focusrite regarding better SQ...

Another positive vote for RedNet/Dante AOIP. I purchased a D16 over this past Summer and have been very pleased. The Sonore uRendu was probably the best USB based solution I had used but found removing USB all together to be a step up in SQ. The D16 and RedNet 3 are clearly overkill for most...

  Yes - In my system when I set SRF but the file rate is mismatched with the LiveClock I usually see a flashing orange light on the D16 word clock LED which indicates it has reverted to internal clock. When I manually set the Liveclock  to the same sample rate the flashing light turns a solid...
