This is the start of my test bench for Euphonicreview.com
Currently the main equipment for recording includes a RME adi-2 pro FS R Black Edition, and my top listening system is a iFi iDSD Pro 4.4mm fed via a iFi STREAM via Network.
One of the most substantial upgrades I have ever made, and recommend to anyone who is somewhat savvy with networking and setup, who wishes to add to their DAC network bridge capability. (I realize the iDSD PRO has a comparatively rudimentary network connection, but, it is light years behind the STREAM in features, functionality and sound quality) If you have ROON, then the iFi Stream becomes an absolute no brainer in my mind. Setup was done in less than a minute, and was streaming DSD256 bit-perfect via ASIO with NO dropouts. Still no dropouts weeks later.
Devices on test currently are a iFi ZEN DAC V2, iFi ZEN CAN, and the aforementioned iFi ZEN stream. Cans currently used for evaluation: Senn. HD650, Hifiman HE-560, Focal CLEAR MG PRO.
