antipodes s20 reclocker versus Phoenix USB reclocker? Any thoughts or too new.

They have different aims.

The S20 takes the asynchronous USB feed and turns it into a precisely clocked synchronous feed (I2S, AES3 or S/PDIF). There is no USB output.

The PhoenixUSB only has a USB output. It takes the asynchronous USB feed and regenerates it into a cleaner USB feed.

Now which would be better? I'm not sure we can make generalizations as there are too many variables.

The s20 isn't an option for me since only USB is capable of to 768 kHz.

In my case it would be Phoenix I need usb. However not in a rush to put a 4 g box inbetween, still waiting to see if DX upgrade will happen, thank you for that

Has anyone heard any more about progress with the 3.1 update roll out? I had an email mid september saying it was soon but since then I have not been getting any responses to emails enquiring about it.

A little more customer engagement might go a long way and I have previously suggested a weekly short update on their forum or website would help with customer satisfaction.

Perhaps it is just me feeling grumpy on a Friday morning. 🤣

Yup grumpy. Got a feeling from chip shortages to other issues they got a lot going on at antipodes. Haven’t heard anything about dx3 upgrades could be slow demand to build a parts order, not concerned in my case, if it happens it happens, if not oh well. Course I’m sure in time all will work out for you all.

Just ordered a K10....
Has anyone compared a K10 to a normal CD or Bluray ripper ?
No, I would be very interested to learn what you think of it. I have an Innuos Zen on my network in another room and I use that for ripping CDs Then copy them over onto the K50.

Do us Antipodes owners need to do anything here?

Yes, but as antipodes is a roon partner, I’m sure they are aware

You have forwarded the room/Linux update comments to Mark?
A post has been opened on the Antipodes Support Forum. Hopefully it will get answered there. Have a look on the Antioodes forum and maybe chip in there.
