Resurrecting this post, I just ordered a Bluesound Nano to try with a Roon Nucleus One in my system. I currently have an Eversolo A-6 and it drives me crazy that it takes almost ten seconds to commence playing a track. The Nucleus One was working really well in my other home with Bluesound Nodes, so this will tell me if I have some sort of network issue separate from the Eversolo device.

@jeffbij the Roon server is wired and the endpoints are wifi. But signal is very strong and music never stops once it's playing - same case at both homes. Separate issue is my McIntosh C53 with the DA2 DAC clips the first 1-2 seconds off songs. That was actually the reason I pulled the trigger on Roon, to get the ability to set a resync delay. |
UPDATE: the ten second delay was my bad! Somehow I had set the resync delay to 10000 ms instead of 1000 ms. My wifi is just fine, but thank you, Jeff, for the comprehensive troubleshooting guide. I have a Nano hooked up with a USB connection to my MC-53 (DA2). It sounds very good - at least as good at the Eversolo A6. To @jbuhl's question, the Nano was found by Roon and incorporated nicely. I still get a resync clipping the first half second or so of songs - I think that's just a problem of McIntosh's DAC that I have to live with. I also played the Nano through the RCA connection and it sounds ok, but the Eversolo through XLR sounds better. That could simply be the cables, but I think the Bluesound DAC is the weakest of the three. Anyway, back to the op's question, the Nano plays just fine with Roon. |
