We expect a report on the DS thread, from our now new member!  woohoo!

I suspect it will exceed your expectations by some margin......hopefully.  shifty

Absolutely, I'll add some comment to your thread once I've had chance to test it out.

My reference point for streamers is a ZP90, so it certainly should exceed that! If it doesn't then I know where to find you! twisted  (Joking!)

Wow! No mucking around there! look forward to hearing how it goes. Do you have a NAS drive yet?

I've had the finger on the trigger for a while hovering over Naim streamers, but figured from what I had read, a second hand Linn would be a better bet - once I understood the slightly confusing model numbers it was good to go!

Yes, I have an UnRaid server that serves music, movies and other media to a Sonos system and media players around the house. So hopefully it'll just be a quick install to get the Klimax up and running!

IMO The Klimax DS/1 is as good a digital source as is out there and the Klimax DS/0 is not that far behind........and I have heard a £45k 4 box DCS Scarlatti CDP.
