  1. Hi Clinton

    Thanks for the heads up re. the link – that’s sorted now ๐Ÿ™‚

    I’ve asked the LNZ team for a review unit – I reckon Mr. Steel would like to have a listen to one, he’s been muttering about streamers for ages…

  2. Keen to hear Gary’s thoughts on it. Do you know if the USB port can be used as an audio output? That would make a killer combo with a capable USB DAC.
