Mk-ll does not have the network bridge as the DS-1
The Mano-Ultra Mk-lll is simply an outstanding music streamer…it out performed the install network bridge in the DS-1 in transparency, resolution, and sound stage
depth and width
In fact playing a track on the PS Audio DirectStream Memory Player Mk-Il, then switching to the same track on Qobuz through the Mano-Ultra Mk-lll is almost impossible to tell the difference..it’s that great
I am using I2S connection, but I installed a custom made 110 ohm digital cable made from Mogami AES-EBU Cable and difference is hard to hear…
If have the knowledge the Mano-Ultra Mk-lll can be set up for YouTube as an app to be controlled by the Mano-Ultra Mk-lll same as Qobuz or Tidal bypassing AIRPLAY…
The Guys at Magna HiFi are great for technical support…Rob especially help me understand how to setup the Mano-Ultra Mk-lll
THE MANO-ULTRA MK-lll is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Premier retour sur ce streamer après une semaine de rodage et de tests.
Après avoir testé Moode puis ropeee, je suis passé à gentooplayer, c’est de loin la meilleure solution, le rendu est remarquable. Mon Holo red est déjà revendu et mon wattson digital ne peut pas suivre malgré son homogénéité. Le Mano va plus loin : plus le signal est complexe, plus il creuse l’écart. Il y a plus de détails, tout reste toujours en place, le grave est plus défini et profond, les voix sont plus denses, les aigus jamais stridents comme parfois avec le red, mais surtout, le message n’est jamais analytique, la musique est toujours fluide et cohérente, engageante. Une grande source à prix raisonnable, merci!
Bonus : la liaison i2s par câble HDMI Audioquest du site magna avec mon dac Extraudio est au moins aussi bonne voire meilleure qu’en aes avec un câble numérique Jorma design a 1200€…

Hello, I think I had it all before I came across Mano Ultra Mkiii. After an hour of gameplay I decided that there is no need to turn on Auralic Aries 1.1 because there is no comparison. I went ahead and thought I deserved a review with the T1 Lumin vs Mano MKiii, I ran out of the Auralic and Lumin sold 😀. As far as I'm concerned, the best streaming I've had so far. Thank you Magna 🙏 Of course I bought all sorts of extras and I don't regret a cent.

The only reason i have not given 5 stars is because there is no WiFi possibility. I am however extremely happy with the sound quality of this device. The sound quality exceeds my expectations.

There has been a really marked improvement in the sound quality of my system.
A blacker background, a real firm punchier bass,greater separation of instruments.
It seems to have lifted the performance in all aspects of this already fantastic dac to another level. Very surprising!

and installed the Roon Bridge, everything else turned off in MoOde. Later I switched to MoOde Player 64-bit v8.25 and it sounded even better. I also tested the Ropieee 2023.02. It also sounds nice, but I
think I prefer the MoOde Player 64-bit v8.2. I have yet to try your recommendation of the GentooPlayer, but I will have to obtain a test license first.
The Mano Ultra mk3 leaves the HoloAudio Red and the iFi Zen streamer miles behind. The Mano Ultra mk3 is even better than the Lumin U2 mini streamer at twice the cost behind, which I also have tested.

In a word ‘Wow!’
I have ‘tested’ the Serene KTE preamp using my Technics SL 1200G turntable and some high quality half-speed mastered vinyl recordings.
These sounded even better than when played through my Schiit Freya S balanced preamp.
Both the May KTE and Serene KTE are clearly superbly designed and built products.
It was a bit of a gamble spending so much when I already had a good DAC and Preamp, but the new Holo audio gear has exceeded all expectations.
I think I now have my ‘end game’ audio system..for now 😉
Thanks you Jos and Rob for your advice and help.

In a word ‘Wow!’
Any doubts I had about the May KTE’s ability to match the dynamic sound of my Schiit Yggdrasil DAC (which I loved) evaporated when I played some really well-recorded, CDs with huge dynamic range.
The sound was explosive!
I listened to all sorts of genres- Rock, Jazz, Folk, Classical..and whatever I tried, it all sounded ‘right’.
The PLL is incredible!
My old Logitech Transporter’s sound quality via BNC is almost indistinguishable from Jay’s CDT vis I2S.
A remarkable achievement.

Was worth every minute.
Out of the box a beautiful peace of gear that sounded great from the beginning.
Now after approx. 80h of burn-in it impressed more and more.
Especially soundstage depth improved and the holographic sound together
with a pin-point imaging cached me. Never heart my system so good before.
I`ve also paired output 2 with my Meze Elite Headphone: you enter audio nirvana immediately.
It sounded so right, relaxed, smooth but totally transparent with perfect textured bass.
It's like being on drugs, one song after the other, never stop it – just listen to music more and more…
