What I’m experiencing is a dusty record effect - little pops and eventually stutters. This is without regard to upsampling. Restarting the Arce seems to clear it up for awhile.- speavler

I went back to my 2012 Mac mini with Roon bridge. DSD512 with convolution filter plays perfectly.- speavler

I’m getting plenty of little skips and stutters even with dsd64. Have gone through a handful of network switches, new router, as well as several cables.- speavler

Sound is excellent. Clean, detailed yet relaxed with three dimensional depth. Previous setup was optimized Mac mini with audirvana and also an Aries Mini. I am new to Roon however and I’ve been troubleshooting issues with upsampling to DSD512, especially over I2S. Updating some network gear...- speavler

Support said it was shipped with latest firmware - was shipped just last week. I may go ahead and do an update anyway. Update: issue was corrected through an adjustment in the Pontus settings, selecting Mute and then toggle CO1 or CO2 to swap channels for DSD.- speavler

Anyone having issues with DSD upsampling? Upsampling in Roon to Arce to Pontus II via I2S results in left/right channels reversing. Tried various I2S pinout configurations on both Arce and Pontus. Other outputs - usb, coaxial - work as expected. Currently just swapped the interconnects to the...- speavler

Can anyone comment on the functionality of the PEQ? Any glitching? Is it universally applied to all inputs/outputs?- speavler

Cheap mini PC for listening music only
I still use a headless Mac mini 2012 as my primary streamer and it’s great. It boots from an SD card, internal hard drive is physically disconnected, run an osx optimizer script which disables unnecessary services, etc. Audirvana 3.5 is stable with Qobuz and local NAS library with PEQ and...- speavler

iFi audio NEO Stream - Sweet Streams!
So…how does the NEO Stream sound as a streamer only? I’ve yet to encounter a better sounding streamer than my Mac Mini + Audirvana? But I know the days are numbered on Audirvana 3.5.- speavler

Yep I’m aware. 3.5 direct to DAC is stable for me with Qobuz (knock on wood). I haven’t messed with audirvana much in dlna mode because I guess I didn’t see what the benefit would be in my setup.- speavler

iFi audio NEO Stream - Sweet Streams!
I’ve been watching this thread with interest. I’m currently still streaming with a dedicated 2012 Mac mini (booted to sd card) running Audirvāna 3.5 to my DAC via usb. Audirvāna is quite stable for me streaming Qobuz, not so much with Tidal. I also have on hand an Aries Mini, but prefer the Mac...- speavler
