| Focal/Naim APP forcing digital front end change Bryston gets a bunch of customer flak for their Manic Moose interface on their BDP streamer products. It's certainly spartan and has its issues. But that will run on all their streamers all the way back to the BDP-1 circa 2011. Even runs and ca... | |
| Roon vs OS and Native Players - Impact on SQ? @mgrif104 What was hosting the core? | |
| Roon vs OS and Native Players - Impact on SQ? When I ran ROON through a MAC mini to my Bryston Pi endpoint. The soundstage was pancake flat compared to streaming directly through the Pi's Manic Moose an MPD. Moved the Core to an SGC with Sonic Orbiter, put in a Mesh Network node at the rig... | |

| Quad Revela 1 & 2 @lafish3 What was the last "box" series made in england? I have the z4 and have had the s5. The s5 were perfect but tiny imperfections can be found on the Z's, But still a really solidly built. Love the tweeter construction and the base and fee... | |

| Signalyst HQPlayer - Is it worth the upgrade? I can’t find the small globe to change the setting. It does not appear in the Sonic Transport interface. Remember the ST is a headless computer controlled via a browser. I installed an HQPdcontrol app on my iPAD and got that connected but I dont ... | |
| Signalyst HQPlayer - Is it worth the upgrade? When I try to play a track roon says it can not connect to the HQplayer. There is a note on the Roon help pages that indicate you have to configure HQP to "Allow control from network". But I dont see that setting in the embedded version I have on... | |
| Signalyst HQPlayer - Is it worth the upgrade? Slowly figuring this out. Got HQplayer added to Roon and it appears as an end point. I suppose now I need to see if one of the USB ports on the Sonic transport has USB out? | |
| Signalyst HQPlayer - Is it worth the upgrade? I am interested in trying this, sounds fun. What would my topology be? considering: I have Roon Running on an SGC i5. I also have installed HQplayer on the i5. My Bryston BDP is the current Roon endpoint. Then My DAC. I stream The Qobuz | |
