Dave,
Thanks for pulling all this great info together. This will help a lot.

I'm running JRiver on my main PC set up as a media server where all the audio is stored, then using a separate SurfacePro 3 as a renderer. I'm using a WW Platinum 1M USB cable feeding into the MCD-1100. Great cable. The SurfacePro is the i7 version with 8G of RAM and 512G of SSD so it should have plenty of horsepower and I can optimize it for audio only use. I'm also using the JRemote App on an iPad.

So far everything is working pretty well and this setup sounds better than the W4S modded Sonos Connect I was using before.

I have a system stability issue, sometimes the ASIO driver locks up, but that is about it. I'm finally off work and not traveling, so I have some time to tweak the setup.

Thanks again,

Tom
