INTEL NUC HQPLAYER UPGRADE
One day after I upgrade the Dave's power supply I'll invite back so we can report on a comparison to his new Bartok.
I had owned a Dave four years ago, made the mistake of downgrading to Qutest, then tried out a Terminator, then the May, and now I'm coming back to a Dave. Listening to the May in NOS I am initially seduced by that wide soundstage, but after about 20 or 30 minutes, and especially with instrumental music, something starts to just feel a bit off. But I believe the Dave would have retained its edge. Unfortunately I did not think to compare the May in NOS for some reason upsampling seems to narrow the soundstage in the May. The only instance when I thought the Holo might have something of an edge was when we hooked up the B&W 702s and listened to rock. llmaluv also strongly preferred the Dave. There was a sense of physicality and roundness next to which the Holo seemed somewhat flat. The biggest differences to me were in soundstage and imaging, which I felt were much more precise. We started with the Maggies, and to my dismay the Dave pulled out clearly ahead, it was not even close. I am a 2-channel guy these days so we listed to a variety of speakers including Magnepan 1.7i, B&W 702s, and Ascend Sierras.

Each dac was fed with 16 full scale HQPlayer upsampled files via Euphony Stylus. A SRC sat between the computer and the Dave. Both were connected to my custom server which has a JCAT USB XE card with two USB connections.
Actual TDP may be lower if not all I/Os for chipsets are used.A few weeks ago brought over his Dave so we could compare my Holo May KTE. System and Maximum TDP is based on worst case scenarios.

Your company as an importer and/or exporter is responsible for determining the correct classification of your transaction. It’s easy to set up and sounds best and you won’t need HQPlayer. BTW, if you don’t need Roon and will stick with jRiver, I’d suggest using UPnP.
