Métronome DSAS Music Server - Test von stereophile.com  

Miguel Barrio hat für stereophile.com den Métronome DSAS Music Server getestet. Der Bericht ist sehr ausführlich und geht auf technische Details des Streaming Servers ein.

Conclusion

The result of a successful collaboration between two French firms, Métronome Technologie and Audirvāna, the DSAS shows that there's virtue in a single-purpose machine compared to using a computer as a music source. The quality of the playback and the convenience of the setup make it a compelling solution for those seeking an appliance-like server that is easy to use and sounds great. There are some issues in the software, specifically search across multiple streaming providers, classical music grouping, and some features missing in the Remote app, including metadata editing. These issues will presumably be resolved over time, since Damien and the team are responsive and add new features constantly.
For devoted Audirvāna users who cherish the player's sound quality, this is a way to get even better sound, from a device that, in contrast to a computer, would be right at home in your audio rack. Great stuff.The Metronome DSAS sounds excellent, works flawlessly, and makes listener’s lives easier. What more could anyone want? Plus, who doesn’t need an easy button these days, especially when there are no downsides? I highly recommend the Metronome DSAS as the premier way to listen through and use Audirvana. 

Das DSAS ist ein einfach zu konfigurierendes Audio-Streaming-Gerät, das die gesamte Leistungsfähigkeit von Audirvāna in Ihr Audiosystem einbringt. Audirvāna gilt unter der verfügbaren computerbasierten Streamer- und Server-Software weithin als die Lösung mit der besten Klangqualität. Genau das ist das Verkaufsargument von Audirvāna – und der Grund, warum sich Métronome für den Einsatz dieser Software entschieden hat.
