As much as I want the paper spec of 24/192 other servers have been disappointing in management and soundquality. 95% of my collection probably is redbook sourced. And its what it can accomplish with redbook and hires 24/96 that it does real well.

I've never been impressed with DSD systems because I listen at the end result.
What does impress me are CD transports still from an audio quality standpoint like Vivaldi CD transport. Not it's UPnP or USB interface. The hype is there but pure audioquality is still at the best CD/SACD transports.

Also, get an audio endpoint at your system level for best result. The 818v2 is an excellent sooloos audio endpoint. Put a C15 for control and edit. Expand with QNAP NAS storage for truly "limitless" collections. The Sooloos userbase probably have the biggest collections online consistently and with pretty good management.

The recent forum contributions from the original Sooloos development team based in NYC is reassuring that we will see good things coming in the future.
