| Roon isn't stable and they edit their forum to hide it I'm not entirely sure that whatever issues I've experienced are even triggered locally. It is true that the issues are similar to other users who hypothesize that it's some form of library/metadata update. That issue was happening quite frequen... | |
| Roon isn't stable and they edit their forum to hide it I suspect OP has some kind of OS issues causing conflict. I have cores on both Windows 10 and Ubuntu Server. All Roon cores are dedicated and run nothing else material. Thanks I am trying throttled. We’ll see if that helps. It does bring up a... | |
| Roon isn't stable and they edit their forum to hide it This is what I find so mystifying. There isn't anything different about my Roon usage other than pushing it harder - 3 grouped zones, 3-4 remotes running, 11K albums, 152K tracks. Lots of Roon Tags and 500 or so unidentified albums. So as far a... | |
| Roon isn't stable and they edit their forum to hide it Yes I understand that most users don't have this issue. As mentioned I think there have to be some uses of the database/library functions that aren't commonly used, at least to the level that I and others who have similar problems have used them.... | |
| Roon isn't stable and they edit their forum to hide it Oh yeah, no question, all of these machines have been high powered. At least 6-8 cores and at least 3.6 - 3.8 Ghz base speed, i7 or i9 or AMD "equivalent," and PCIe 4.0 M2 system drives. To me the issues seem library / database based - in the sen... | |
| Roon isn't stable and they edit their forum to hide it I agree Roon's support model is not geared towards quick response and it's under-resourced. That may change over time with their acquisition. I've tried to use it multiple times but their support ideas always revolve around stripping down the ne... | |
| Roon isn't stable and they edit their forum to hide it Thanks. I agree it's a very complex and sophisticated product, and in many senses that is what attracts me to it. I tend to adopt something and use it very deeply, which I'm sure stresses areas other users don't touch or stress. To be clear, my... | |
| Roon isn't stable and they edit their forum to hide it I've been using Roon since 2017 and I have a lot of experience with it. I've built maybe 10 different Roon servers/cores, possibly more. Some Windows 10/11, some Ubuntu. I don't know MacOS well enough to try my hand at that. In the end, what ... | |
| Just upgraded to Fiber Optic feed ( 500Mbps) from Spectrum (250 Mbps) OMG What would be the mechanism for increased quality? For video, increased bandwidth could increase bitrates. But I don’t see that applying to audio, nor to be needed. | |
| Fun read... By the author's definition, audiophilia would suck. | |
| Wanna take it to the next level? Buy MORE speakers! Multichannel can be really fun if you have the right setup. I don't use a crappy receiver - I use an Oppo BDP-105 outputting multichannel analog into a Marantz pre-pro set at pure analog and then XLR out to good amps. The sound is quite good...d... | |
| How do you add remote control to a preamp, here's how. I don't like the idea of multiple preamps. You can only harm the sound here. If you have to have remote volume control, I suggest it is better to get a preamp that has it. | |
| Looking for a new Subwoofer Definitely go with two subs over one, Totally agree. I run 5 and its even better. I love the REL subwoofer sound. Consider finding 2 used RELs. They don't have to match, but probably best if they do. Mine don't. | |
| Use of Denafrips Iris 12th DDC with computer Whether the DDC could help depends a lot on your DAC. It could help, or it could be "redundant" to internal DAC electronics. I do echo the idea of a streamer though. Not just for POTENTIAL sound improvement but overall function. That is, if you... | |
| Transparent Audio power cords I honestly don’t understand why these threads always have to devolve into nonsense. I’d say they start with nonsense and resist evolving into useful dialog. But that doesn’t mean cable believers can’t discuss what they want. Just don’t get upse... |
