I’ve never heard I2S. I use AES/EBU. I do know that USB compared to AES/EBU Cees says that USB doesn’t sound as good.

I've understood that as well.

Has a pre-release review of the Pasithea been posted anywhere?

Ditto for me. Would love to be able to read a review of it comparing the Morpheus to the new Pasitrhea .

I'm scared.
Scared because I've been in this audio game long enough to know that I, at some point, will reluctantly pull my wallet out and buy the damn thing.

Well there is no end to it. Since you just got it so sit back and enjoy it and may be few years down the line if you have the urge then upgrade as Morpheus is as good as it gets at this price.

You're right. I am enjoying it immensely.

 

[devilboy]

Getting along nicely.

Scared or scarred?

Lol! Now that I think about it, probably the latter.

I'm looking for a DDC that has a USB input and RJ45 output to go to the Morpheus.

There are some, from Denafrips, LKS (USB-100) or Singxer (SU-6)

I was initially thinking Denafrips but I'm open to others.

 

[eric5kim]

I have the Singxer SU-6 and the I2S works with no issues!

Random DDC with I2S doesn’t mean that I2S will be compatible with Morpheus. You see I2S is not a standard for music so different manufacturer has different settings for I2S. Apart from Hermes/ Metrum DDC the other I know that works is Pi2AES but it will require some DIY

Oh interesting I didn’t know this. How do you know if it’s not compatible? Will it flat out not work? No sound?

I THINK i2s via HDMI is compatible both ways but RJ45... the pins aren't necessarily the same. I would assume you have to contact the manufacturers of the units or a cable manufacturer could investigate for you if you choose to purchase a cable from them. Maybe Rob Fritz at Audio Art Cable might be able to lead you in the right direction.

I use Chord LAN cable, no no problem at all with Morpheus and Ambre.

Sonnet and Metrum have the same pin arrangement, best to my knowledge.
Amber and Sonnet Hermes are basically identical... anatomically speaking.
