For a limited time. @jafant, APT has it on the app. Some of it is very good; the music clips se... | |
| Best Hi-Res Audiophile Downloads Top 3 @kefas Not to derail the thread but your post re: Mehldau's Blues and Ballads reminded me that I didn't give that album a good enough listen the first time. What a fine series of covers of pop standards. Oh my. This could be on my desert island li... | |
| Roon and Squeezebox Apparently it is working out well. Check out the Roon Community Forum at Roonlabs.com. There's a fewLinux hoops to jump through. But a lot of Squeezers are enjoying the Roon experience. I am not a Squeezebox owner; just a Roon user. Apple Air... | |
| Intermittent electrical noise in system Glad it worked for you.As they say here, Happy Listening! | |
| Intermittent electrical noise in system That interval seems like it could be a beacon of some kind. If there is a wifi router nearby, turn it off and see if the noise disappears. If it does, see about moving any wifi gear away from your hifi or using ethernet instead of wifi. Look for r... | |
| WiFi System Upgrades Roon costs $120.00/yr. (Not exactly free but a good value compared to the cost of a decent DAC) When I installed Roon during my free trial, I had it playing over my Apple TVs within ten minutes of the download. It doesn’t modify your system or you... | |
| WiFi System Upgrades The question is: To use Airplay or not to use Airplay. Before buying anything, try your last idea: move the MacMini and see how you like the sound quality with it serving the DacMagic directly. My MacMini is dead quiet; the fan never comes on an... | |

Halfway through I realized it met the criteria.Maybe the covers on this album were big... | |

| storage options for MacBook Air I listen to music on a (mostly headless) MacMini. The music is managed by iTunes. I've got almost 3/4 TB on a 2TB WD drive connected via firewire to the Mini. The Mini USB out to an LH Labs DAC to HiFi. This is my Roon core. I rip and control th... | |
| storage options for MacBook Air I also use the AIFF format. And iTunes.So the answer depends on the number of albums/songs in your library and if you plan to add to it.I assumed that the external drive was used because you were running out of disk space on the MB Air. Which, as ... | |
| storage options for MacBook Air Without knowing the type of player you plan to use it's tricky to suggest anything. Seems to me that the portable benefits of the MB Air are lost when it gets connected to a wired up external drive and DAC. Having you considered a streamer w/ inte... | |

| Melody Gardot - My one and only thrill Nice to see this thread revived...She's not as known as Norah Jones or Diana Krall, but surely substantially higher class and calibur. Her voice is the sexiest on the planet.I have to agree. And can only add that her recordings remind me that the ... |
