I think it is but considerably less expensive. I believe the Bel Canto unit has more output possibilities, whereas the mR is only USB out. Check out Sonore's threads on the 'other forum' ... there is more info about Direct Connection, if that's what you need. it's not something I've tried ... I route mine.
I'm not sure where you read that ... maybe that was an earlier advice, before 3.1 came out. On another forum, Sonore posted a brief instruction on how to get Audirvana 3.1 'talking' to the mR and that was the way to go. Works fine for me.
Just bought a microrendu and it's on its way. My router is on another floor and I want to connect it to the Ethernet port on my pc. Sonore said this would work but they don't support this method and don't know whether setup will be more complicated. Is anyone using the microrendu this way and can chime in?
I have Ethernet wall plugs as a backup option.

There is a thread on "the other site" under Music Servers that begins with "A novel way to . . . " Plenty of pages on how to do this and the issues involved.
Lots of other options:
* Power line adapters
* Ethernet over coax adapters
* Use an access point as a bridge/switch
I just downloaded Audiovana Plus trial to compare with Roon to hear which I prefer before making a purchase.
I've switched the mR setting from Roon Ready to MPD/DLNA and also went into the Audirvana's Audio System>Preferred Audio Device setting, but don't even see an option for the mR as the output. Does Audirvana even support the mR?Am I missing something here?
Thanks!

I now see that maybe in the future Audirvana v3.1 may act as a server, but as for v3.0, it doesn't. I didn't even think of checking into this before downloading the trial, but no big deal being I didn't have to purchase a license.
I have JRiver and do use it with the mR. I also just purchased an annual subscription to Roon + a 3-month complimentary Tidal subscription from Roon after not being able to use the mR with Audirvana v3.0. I purchased the annual subscription for Roon because if Audirvana v3.1 can be used with the mR in the future, I would like to hear it.
Thank you very much for your reply, I appreciate it!

Your mR should appear on the drop-down list of devices in Preferences/Audio System/Change (Preferred Audio Device). If it doesn't appear, then I guess A+ isn't seeing the mR on the network.
Is that right?
Those are the exact menus I went into to select the mR, but it wasn't available as an option.
JRiver & Roon are seeing the mR immediately. Maybe I need to re-install Audirvana Plus?

Mmm ... very strange. A+ 3.0.99 definitely supports mR on my system. So, silly questions come to mind .... What version of SonicOrbiter O/S do you have ? I presume everything is running on the same network ?

It definitely is strange. I even deleted it and downloaded it again, and it still isn't seeing the mR. I have the latest v2.5 SonicOrbiter, Yes, everything is on the same network. No, I downloaded it from this site under Audirvana Plus>Download Free Trial. I'm also running macOS Sierra 10.12.6
Ah, OK ... that is not the correct version for streaming to Network Players ... you need the 3.0.99 version which is in public Beta test, from the link I gave you earlier. When the Beta testing is completed, it will become Version 3.1.
