“I did cancel it "successfully" from the menu” @grislybutter  Did you receive email confirmation from Qobuz stating your subscription has been cancelled successfully?   
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
@nyev  Couple of brands for your AES cable consideration; Audience, Acrolink (if you can find it used), Acoustic Revive and Combak (aka Harmonix).

“I consider Wadax, Taiko Extreme the two big dogs, up to now Aurender W20SE, Innuos Statement, Antipodes K50 tied for third, Statement may now be pulling ahead of Aurender, Antipodes with new PS and optimized usb for me.” @sns Which one of the ... 
Aurender N20 or A15
@mhwilliford  I agree, N200 makes a wise investment if you plan on auditioning high quality DAC’s. Also try DAC’s with VC so you can A/B with and without C2700 in your system.  Good luck!

@nyev  congratulations on your purchase of N20! Once you get N20, let it settle down in your system for at least 72 hours, compare both USB and AES with good cables and post your findings.   
Aurender N20 or A15
Personally, I wouldn’t get N20 unless you’re planning to pair it a better DAC. With DA2 as your DAC, save your money and get N150.

“Turns out the seller of the N20 is a longtime poster here” @nyev  Even better!

“Does paying by CC really add protection? How can you prove to the CC company that you never received the goods?” @nyev Yes, all major credit cards offers purchase protection. Much better than PayPal. Your delivery confirmation or lack of + any...

@nyev  I believe you can still use CC via F&F. When you go through the payment options via F&F, the steps prompt you if you want protection (CC) or skip protection (bank transfer). Not sure why you’re buying used…is there no dealer in you...

“Aurender you can only use their Conductor app” @nyev As a long time user of Conductor app and ROON (18+ months), this would not be a source of your dissatisfaction with Aurender. The Conductor UI is not as layered or advance as ROON but it’s v...

“I’ve yet to find a dealers/salesperson who doesn’t let their biases get in the way of getting great advice” @nyev I know it’s a rarity but they do exists. I have been very fortunate to work with few dealers that are audio enthusiast at heart. T...

@jerryg123  I take dealer advice with a pinch of salt. The overzealous approach in shilling their product lines put to test when they are unable to provide a product for in-house demo.

““the N20 is inferior to the K50” @nyev  You do realize dealer bias is in play since he sells K50. All of your choices under consideration are excellent choices. It’s going to comes which of these streamer sounds best within your system. If your... 
Wolf Von Langa SON (TAS 2022 PofY) and Gestalt Audio - my experience & review
@hchilcoat  congratulations on your purchase of SON’s. Looking forward to your feedback, once everything settles down. Exciting times indeed!   
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
@grannyring I have gotten feedback from other users that new Muon Pro ahead of MU1 is quite effective and it really lifts its game. It appears MU1 requires a Gigabit Ethernet so Muon Pro makes sense. It’s worth pointing out, Hans Beekhuyzen feed...
