    Introducing Olympus & Olympus I/O - A new perspective on modern music playback

    This is great news! Amazing speed of development! When will be the earliest for ordering the retrofit package for Horizon and when for the third party cable?

    Taiko Audio XDMS - Extreme Direct Music Server Software

    I have tried alternative and I clearly prefer default. More 3d and layered.

    Introducing Olympus & Olympus I/O - A new perspective on modern music playback

    Just out of curiosity, how expensive is too expensive? We might all be surprised at how much the community actually is willing to pay for thing "done right". The expense might be a smaller problem than one might think. Just look at how many orders Olympus and OIO are getting.

    My two cents. XDMI is designed to improve two things: 1. From player to digital signal out. 2. From digital signal out to DAC getting I2S. For player to digital signal out: this step will usually need to go through a) Windows drivers b) Some hardware for digital output, e.g. a USB PCIE...

    I would say don't bother. The DAC in the HE 1 is pretty bad, the Rossini will be much better.

    Taiko Audio SGM Extreme : the Crème de la Crème

    Are there any third party DAC cables that you can buy? I remember it being mentioned in the thread but can't find it.
