| Tidal - 4 on the floor I guess it depends what you want from a service.Qobuz has noStation or radio functionNo real offline function, log out by mistake and you loose the lot.No ability to restore offline contentNo VideoNo my MixCarplay does not work, only for downloade... | |
| Is the Mytek Brooklyn Bridge or Lumin D2 good buys in 2021? The D2 will sound better with age, just leave it streaming music for a few weeks.It also has a small screen as the info is on the control app, it also has an option to turn if off. | |
| Streamer Value Question Innous vs Bluesound NUC small form factor PCif you go the Roon route you will need something to host the core.https://www.intel.co.uk/content/www/uk/en/products/boards-kits/nuc.html | |
| Streamer Value Question Innous vs Bluesound Seems like with your options these will hold your files.Personally I’d have the files on a NAS with suitable backup.This separates the storage from the streamer then you can change the streamer without having any impact on the file storage.I have ... | |
| Can streamed Music sound better on a Sunday? Depending on your type of broadband you have what is called contention rates where the available bandwidth is shared, but in practice this would not affect the streaming quality and the management of the packet delivery and local cashe Would manag... | |

Bandwidth will play no part in this, a high definition film only needs 3 Meg a second to stream and the requirements for music is much lower.So this is not a consideration unless you are stuck in the past and still using a modem on dialup.Not sure... | |
| Can streamed Music sound better on a Sunday? Mine always sounds the same, maybe you need to look at your system.Bits are just Bits nothing more. | |
| Sound quality of Roon vs. Lighting I’m doing something similar as a service I don’t think Roon actually delivers value for money.However I’m using a LUMIN D2 fed by local library and Qobuz.I actually think using the LUMIN directly sound more musical than using Roon and it’s free.Ro... | |
| Lumin Player App Issues Sounds like a local network issue mine is always rock solid | |
| Moving up from a Node 2i So for those of us getting their first streamer and feeling a bit gun-shy about big expenditures, is the consensus that the Node2i does a decent job, in its class?I would say yes, I liked mine, but if you move to very good amp and speaker space th... | |
| Moving up from a Node 2i Hi Mike I just use a free account and manually transfer what I want over. | |
| Moving up from a Node 2i I also have Apple Music and prefer its playlists over the Tidal ones, i'm also using Soundiiz to transfer from AM to Tidal which then flow into Roon. | |
| Moving up from a Node 2i I keep using it just to ensure I know how it works, i've only took a year subscription to Roon, I'm not really into the metadata but really like I can select a track and use the music feature for it to select and play music based on that selection... |
