Sonore Signature Series Rendu - SPDIF/i2s

[chip]

Hello all,

I am seriously considering adding an SSR to my system to replace an extremely troublesome PS Audio BridgeII in my DirectStream DAC.

Does anyone have this combination running?

I2S or USB?

 

I have noticed the new products from Sonore are supporting Roon but can not find that support mentioned for the SSR.

When is Roon support coming for the SSR?

My mistake.

I should have asked; I2S or SPDIF?

From what I can find it seems the I2S is the preferred output for the DS.

Hi, yes I did. I received the SSR yesterday so I do not have much to say yet.

Setup was nothing but plug it in and it worked without any issues.

I do have Ethernet in my listening room so it was quick and easy.

Plug in the Ethernet, I2s, and power and it was recognized by Bubble UPnP and immediately I was able to play files from MinimServer.

I am replacing the Bridge II in my DS DAC. I experienced too many problems with the BII stopping during playback that usually required resetting the BII to get it to work again.

I have not experienced any problems so far with the SSR.

I do not have any experience with the Aries or microRendu so I can not make any comparison with them.

After two evenings I can say I feel very pleased with results.

If you can audition the SSR I think you would be pleased with the results.

Good luck in your quest,

Chip

I wanted to use the I2s input on the DS.

Reviews I had read got me interested. Then a review where the DS and SSR were reviewed as a system helped me pull the trigger.
