At first I had doubts, as the amplifier would work together with my old ARCUS boxes. The technology does not stand still eventually yes.
But my concern was unfounded. The combination works well together.
From hum or noise, as reported by other reviewers, I notice nothing. But have paid attention to a stable surface, high-grade cables, including power strip and a corresponding installation.
The device runs with me only in source-direct mode, an amplifier to amplify as neutral as possible and nothing else. The sound quality I am a device in this category more than satisfied.
