Aurender Conductor app reliability and user experience


I'm on the fence about buying an Aurender A200 streamer+DAC. I auditioned one using an identical system I have at home (Moon 340i and Dynaudio Contour 20i).  I really liked what I heard in the store, the DAC is transparent and does a great separation of vocals and instruments. I used the app on an iPad and looked/worked ok.

The app is so downvoted in the app store and have read a couple of complaints, that I'm doubting the quality of the software. I used Roon for two years, but I stopped using it because of the price. Right now I'm mostly using Tidal Connect and using a Blusound Node 2i as a streamer.

What has been your experience with the Conductor app? Can you use it on an iPhone? Is it kind of mandatory to use an iPad?

The Aurender Conductor is a solid app that is easy to use and rock solid. If someone is having issues with connectivity it is probably their network, not the Aurrender.

 

OP… you want to purchase an N level streamer only product. Then you can choose the DAC separately. This gives you great flexibility. 
 

I own both an N100 and W20SE streamer. They are world class and cost effective. I have owned and auditioned others. This is the brand to get. My systems are under my UserID.

I listen to Radio Paradise all the time — Eclectic / world mix.  No you cannot skip tunes it is a broadcast source.

Ok, I withdraw my comment. Maybe I do not know how to do it. How can you skip tubes in a broadcast medium? There must be something I do not understand.
