How much is it to get this device when you know it's going over mate?Well chilled, enjoying the dusk with a glass of Glen Grant, and just watched the ISS pass overhead.

Confused me.How much is it to get this device when you know it's going over mate?
Lol now you are bragging.. How do you know the space station is flying over?Confused me.
Device dave, iss, Glen grant?
I received a lightly used, mint condition DAVE today. I am having an issue using it with Roon. My setup is modified switch => sMS-200ultra => tX-USBultra => DAC. Previously, I used HQPlayer and Roon (NAA mode) with an Auralic Vega and never had an issue. With DAVE, Roon (Roon Ready mode) only sees the sMS-200 endpoint on the network only when I remove the tX-USBultra from the system. With the tX-USBultra in place, Roon does not see an audio device and will not play.
All I did was swap the Vega for the DAVE. I am using the same power and USB cables. Nothing else changed.
Does anyone have any troubleshooting ideas?
I dont think the blu2 has an optical inputHow could a server connected with a decent optical output possibly transmit RF noise to a Blu2 or an M Scaler?
Where has the decision landed about the necessity of using devices likes the Sonore ultraRendu, SOtM sMS-200ultra et. al. versus using a laptop's USB output with the DAVE? Many members of site have posted about using these devices with good results while even Rob Watts himself uses the DAVE directly from a laptop. Are these devices truly necessary?

Yes, but the question is what technical improvements do they offer, if any, versus directly connecting a 2015 MacBook Pro via USB with the MagSafe power cable disconnected? I have read conflicting reports about the necessity of these devices with the DAVE.The devices you mention (UltraRendu and SMS-200 ultra) are ethernet-to-USB converters. If you cannot put your computer on or near your hi-fi rack (this is my situation) or simply wish to use ethernet's signal integrity protocols, and you wish to use a USB input to your DAC, then you will need an ethernet to USB converter and the two devices you mention are amongst the best on the market if not the best at the time of writing.

Is it worth to get the Dave in 2018? I have hugo2, idk if it a good go to upgrade to Dave at this time. Please share your opinion.
