Upside: It looks absolutely wonderful.
Downside: I would be too short to reach those albums :frowning:.

That’s why I love the liquid music of the dCS Rossini.

I just had a pair of 218’s in my system for demo for 3 weeks. They were really good.

Beautiful system, congratulations

Finally to this…My new Vitus SIA-025 and Quadraspire X Reference arrived yesterday.:sparkling_heart: The middle shelf will accommodate a Server. Which make and model? The jury is still out on that one.:thinking:

You can’t go far wrong with a melco, I would look out for a nice secondhand one.

Or an Antipodes K41 G4…
I’m very happy with mine.
Rock solid performance, and tip top support, for the few people that need it.

I just sold my Innuos Statement Next Gen for this: the new Zenith Next Gen. Love it! It has flexible ports (output fex I2S, USB, AES/EBU, SPIDF) flexible storage (I’m running 8TB) a fantastic GUI. Running the system as pure server…

Thanks @T38.45 Despite some concerns, I’m reliably informed that Innuos works well with dCS.

I do have my eyes on a Stream 3🤔. I have a very small music library, less than 850gb, so a 1TB SSD drive would do. Plus, I use Kobuz for most music.

Love that system. My purely headphone system is based on Rossini Apex/Vivaldi clock/Lina amp. Would love to A/B the Lina and the Zahl at some point.

Are you streaming via Mosaic or via Innuos’ app?

I use Innuos as a native server only (like I did with Melco and before that with Qnap) so not as a streamer. Main usage here is with Mosaic (or Roon) accessing the music library. Since I use Nagra as a streamer with outstanding good results (Nagra—SPDIF—-dCS) I’m using the mConnect app to stream.

Thanks. You get better sound with this setup than using your dCS as streamer with the Mosaic app?

in my setup yes, it’s outstanding. But I have the Nagra PSU as well to power the streamer.
