I use Sonos and Deezer with a non-X Esoteric K-01, if that is helpful.

It is. I am surprised how good it sounds; must be the async USB connection...

I listen to Tidal via Aurender app to my esoteric k01x .... I agree with you. Sounds very good. Goodbye to all those Amazon cd purchases.

I neglected to mention that mine goes from Sonos/Deezer to W4S Remedy to Esoteric K-01. I have run it without the Remedy, but prefer it with the Remedy. It is at least as good as the BAT CD player alone was. I have not A/B'd against the K-01's tray. The Silenzio through the K-01 is better than Sonos/Deezer/Remedy, but for one on a budget, the Sonos/Deezer/Remedy gets you pretty close for a lot less money.
