Hi Thanks for this endorsement of the switch !

I was talking to my local disti who is very helpful, I wanted to confirm what he told me with you all out there: while the 818v3 will great upgrade the analogue input sound quality, the FLAC streaming from Sooloos essentially is the same in the 818 as it is in AC200. Sounds right but let me know if you have a different view or experience, I would be grateful for the feedback in making the switch decision. [90% of my music is on Sooloos, and more stuff just keeps coming online from TIDAL].

Thanks /bt
